⚽ The away goals rule will be removed from all UEFA club competitions from the 2021/22 season.

Ties in which the two teams score the same number of goals over the two legs will now have two 15-minute periods of extra time, and, if required, penalty kicks.

#UCL #UWCL #UEL #UYL
Statistics since the mid-1970s show a clear trend of continuous reduction in the gap between the number of home-away wins (from 61%-19% to 47%-30%) and the average number of goals per match scored at home-away (from 2.02-0.95 to 1.58-1.15) in men’s competitions.
Since 2009/10, the average goals per game have remained very steady in the #UWCL with the overall average of 1.92 for home teams and 1.6 for away teams.

UEFA will join a coalition of English footballing stakeholders by staying silent across its social media platforms this weekend.

The aim of the boycott is to show solidarity in the fight against online abuse. It will run from 16:00 CEST on Friday to 23:59 CEST on Monday.
UEFA president, Aleksander Čeferin: "There have been abuses both on the pitch and on social media. This is unacceptable and needs to be stopped, with the help of the public and legislative authorities and the social media giants."
UEFA president, Aleksander Čeferin: "Allowing a culture of hatred to grow with impunity is dangerous, very dangerous, not only for football, but for society as a whole.
