UEFA bans Liverpool-Real Madrid game
A new law by the European Football Union "UEFA" prevents a match between Real Madrid and Liverpool from taking place at Anfield for this season, in order to avoid repeating encounters at the same stadium for three consecutive seasons. The law also excludes the match from the group stage draw if it has already been held twice at the same venue, but allows it to be played at the other team's stadium, such as Santiago Bernabéu. The aim of this regulation is to preserve diversity in matchups and prevent the same scenarios from recurring in the tournament. It applies only to the group stage and does not extend to the knockout rounds.
