This Monday late afternoon supporters of Juve are still expected in Lyon, for the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League scheduled for Wednesday. The measures, if any, will be taken by UEFA on the recommendation of the Ministry of Health, we were told on the side of Olympique Lyonnais. As in every Champions League match, the stadium "belongs" to UEFA. So Lyon is "at the end of the chain", we added to OL. The next few hours should be crucial for decision-making as the President of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) Gabriele Gravina has announced that he has asked the authorities to allow the next Italian Championship matches to be played behind closed doors, as well as the Inter Milan-Ludogorets meeting in the Europa League, due to the spread of the new coronavirus in the country.
