The Hindu  

Just days ahead of the European Championships kick off on June 11, several players have tested positive for the coronavirus. FULL EURO 2020 COVERAGE A congested international calendar may not allow postponement of matches and the European body had laid out four conditions to help matches go ahead as scheduled. 1) In case players from a team have to be placed under mandatory quarantine or have to self-isolate, the scheduled match can go ahead provided the side has at least 13 players available, including at least one goalkeeper. 2) If the team in question is unable to field a minimum of 13 players including a goalkeeper, UEFA can reschedule the match to a later date and have power to reassign the fixture to a venue in a neutral country. READ | 4) If any member of the appointed referee team for a match tests positive for Covid-19, UEFA may appoint replacement match officials who may be of the same nationality as one of the participating teams.
