European Union Football Association (UEFA) President Aleksander Ceverin said that the French League's decision to end the soccer season in late April, against the backdrop of the government's decision was "premature."
The association announced on the 30th of last month, the final stop of the season and the crowning of the leader, Paris Saint-Germain, with the title, nearly 48 hours after the political authorities announced the freezing of sporting activity, albeit without an audience, until September due to the outbreak of the new Corona virus.
"For me, the decision was premature ... My personal opinion is that you finished the season very early ... This is not perfect, because things can improve and everyone can play again, except for some tournaments," Chevrin said.
"But again, this is a government decision, so what can the clubs do?" If you don't respect him. ”
The Confederation had previously expressed its desire to save its competitions, especially the Champions League, without specifying a date for its resumption.
"We have two French clubs competing in the Champions League (Saint-Germain and Lyon), and in this case they will not play until August," Chevrin said. "I do not know if it is a good thing for these two teams, not to play and then (return) to tough and important matches."
Lyon previously objected to the League's decision to end the season, especially since its seventh place would not entitle him to participate in any of the two continental competitions (Champions League or European League «Europa League») for the first time since 1997, unless he was crowned the title of the League Cup competition at the expense of San German in the final match (to be determined later), or crowning the Champions League title suspended due to «Covid-19», knowing that he is ahead of Italian champion Juventus with a clean goal of going to the final price of the final.
Lyon club president Jean-Michel Olas lodged two appeals before the administrative court over the early suspension of the tournament.
"I heard about the problems on this issue (as far as qualifying for the European competitions), but I leave that to the French League and the French authorities to take an interest in the matter," Cheverin commented.
