How COVID-19 Impacted European Soccer

This exhibit is focused on coronavirus's negative impact on the top-tier domestic leagues of European soccer. Doubtlessly, the disease struck the most-viewed sport in Europe financially. Along with other sports clubs in the world, soccer clubs found themselves struggling economically. The future of the sport remains a mystery. This work analyzes the notable domestic leagues in Europe and their experiences regarding the pandemic.

The coronavirus changed soccer completely. Supporters are aware that the sport is not the same anymore. Watching the games on television somehow does not even compare to watching the game in the stadium.

Soccer also had minor rule changes. Due to the coronavirus, soccer federations extended the substitution limits during a single game. Before the virus, a team could only substitute three players during a game. Now that the virus affected the sport, soccer federations across Europe agreed to changed the rule. Teams are allowed to substitute up to five players if they wish.
