The restriction is maintained, in principle, until March 30
Real Madrid and Granada will have English rivals in the quarterfinals of the Champions and Europa League respectively. Liverpool and Manchester United They are the rivals on the road for the presence of both teams in the semifinals of European competitions. So far everything is clear and diaphanous, but doubts appear on the stage of the first leg matches to be played, in theory, in Madrid and Granada, circumstance that is in the air due to sanitary conditions.
Until next March 30, flights from the United Kingdom are restricted, so the measure could be repealed, but there is no response until next week. Neither Real Madrid nor Granada know for sure if the first leg matches can be played in their respective stadiums (Di Stéfano and Los Cármenes) or they will have to find a destination, something that the Atlético de Madrid in his confrontation with him Chelsea, playing the match that corresponded to him at home in Bucharest.
Why can it be played in England and not in Spain?
All those travelers who travel to the British Isles must be quarantined, but the government allows exceptions to the rule and one of them is the one that refers to professional athletes. For that reason, Atlético was able to travel to London to play against Chelsea.
It is the local authorities of each country who set the guidelines to be followed and what the UEFA does is apply them. What seems certain is that the return matches will be played both in Anfield like in Old traffordAt least with that the teams work.
