The Champions League anthem will not be played before the matches of the tournament, which will be held in the UK this week. This decision was made in connection with the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Thus, the Champions League anthem will not sound before four matches of the tournament: Liverpool - Ajax (Tuesday), Chelsea - Salzburg, Manchester City - Borussia D, and Rangers - Napoli (all matches are Wednesday).
Recall that Elizabeth II passed away last Thursday, September 8. In connection with this sad event, all football matches scheduled for last weekend were canceled in the UK.
