UEFA president says good old football with fans will come back very soon

UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin said good old football with fans will come back very soon, The Guardian reported.

"It’s a serious situation but it is going down now and we are being more cautious. We know more about the virus and in general I’m an optimistic person. I don’t like this apocalyptic view that we have to wait for the second and third waves or even a fifth wave … people you know are likely to die one day, but do we have to be worried today? I don’t think so. We are ready and we will follow the recommendations of the authorities but I’m absolutely sure, personally, that good old football with fans will come back very soon," he said.

The final tournament of the UEFA European Football Championship has been postponed for a year and will be held in 2021.
