UEFA has changed the city where a Europa League match will be played.
The UEFA Emergency Committee decided to change the venue of the match Vorskla Poltava – Arsenal because of the state of tension prevailing in Ukraine. So, according to a statement from the European forum, the match will be held Thursday night in Kiev, although it should have normally played at the stadium Vorskla Poltava.
UEFA is closely monitoring the situation in Ukraine and Russia and indicates that, if necessary, further changes would be made to the Europa League program on Thursday night.
Poltava is located in the east of Ukraine, fairly close to the Donbass region. As a result of the maritime incident between Russian and Ukrainian vessels, the President of Ukraine has requested that martial law be established.
