Neymar celebrates goal against Bortmund in Champions League round of 16 second leg on March 11, 2020 - AFP

The rumor was therefore true. UEFA confirmed on Wednesday afternoon that the 2019-20 Champions League will have its epilogue in Lisbon after a final 8 (quarterfinals then semi and final) to be held between 12 and 23 August . PSG can prepare their suitcases for Portugal.

The 8th finals will take place on August 7 and 8 either on the ground of the teams which were to receive, or on neutral ground, still in Portugal, near Guimarães and Porto. UEFA gives itself a few days to decide. It will therefore be necessary to wait before knowing where OL will play their return match against Juventus.

A final 8 also for the Europa League

The Europa League will also end in the form of a final 8 in Germany from 10 to 21 August in four cities: Cologne, Duisburg, Dusseldorf and Gelsenkirchen, with a final announced in Cologne. For the round of 16 Sevilla-Rome and Getafe-Milan, whose first leg had been postponed, UEFA announced that they would be played in a heat on neutral ground. 

Finally, on the issue of supporters, UEFA will study the issue of the presence of supporters and will provide further details in July.
