Champions League Could Change To A “final Four” Setup by Counceller1: 6:13pm On Mar 16, 2020
Last week, UEFA made the decision to delay the Champions League and Europa League in facts of the coronavirus all-over.

There are yet eight more clubs to play each other in their respective second league of the Round of 16 to determine the next four clubs to join the 4 already qualified clubs then the rest of the competition to finish. However, there’s no assurance that the Champions League will restart under the same setup as it use to be in the previous years.


The information was conveyed just two days after Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund at the Parc des Princes to reach the quarter-finals of the tournament where they joined RB Leipzig, Atalanta BC, and Atlético Madrid who also secured their ticket into the next stage of the tournament.


According to AS Diario, there is a proposed plan that will be familiar to fans of college basketball’s Final Four. Essentially, the semi-finals and finals would be played in a single-legged format over a four-day period. The Champions League “Final Four” would take place in Istanbul as previously scheduled and the Europa League will conclude in Gdansk.

The quarter-finals, where PSG finds themselves right now for the first time since 2016, is also expected to be played in a single-game format. Those four games could be played at a neutral setting or the draw to decide the pairings may also give home-field advantage to one of the teams.

We’ll know on Tuesday which direction UEFA is headed in after the organization meets and will vote on a proposal.

Whatever UEFA decides, if PSG is able to march on to the end and win the Champions League, you can expect the accomplishment to be diminished by critics due to the rule changes. Fans, of course, will celebrate it just like any other.
