UEFA decided that the Champions League final, which was scheduled to take place in Istanbul on May 29, was moved to Porto, Portugal. In May 2021, due to the lockdown in Turkey and the decision of the British government (Turkey on the list of countries with a mandatory quarantine after return, which also includes footballers), UEFA abandoned the organization of the final in Istanbul, heating up sports news portals and fans to red.
