The leagues in Europe are in a complete shutdown over the Coronavirsus. The leagues matches in Europe have all been postponed until April 3rd. This means that alot of league will have to try and fit alot of games in short period of time. Some leagues are 12 to 14 games behind each other. The Euros are also coming up which will make it even harder to complete games and finish off European Competitions. The Coronavirsus could last until the end of the year or beyond because people don’t know how to stop it. There a UEFA meeting on Tuesday to decide weather to postponed the Euros until next summer of 2021.
The postponing of league also has a big financial implication for all the teams in each league. Alot of small teams will struggle to stay in business as they need matchday ticket money to stay afloat. Teams could be relegated and be put out of business. It also disrupts the social gatherings and ability to have fun watching games with your friends. Leagues could be decided by a play off or leaving the league the way it is an marking it null for this year. Hopefully the matches will be played during the summer so if the virsus has died down by then. It hard to know what to do without soccer in TV. Imagine if liverpool are denied there first league title in 30 years there would be uproar. Teams like Arsenal and Manchester United would be very happy about that. I think the Euros will be pushed back to the summer 2021 and leagues will be finished in the late summer.
