europa league

In the end, Stjarnan seem to get what they want: the match against Inter in Reykjavik, the first leg of the Europa League playoffs, will be played on Wednesday, August 20. The announcement was made by the Icelandic club, in the person of manager Sigurdur Sveinn Thorolfsson; we are awaiting confirmation of UEFA. The request to play the match earlier, which had obtained an initial negative response from Inter, was born due to the fact that the Icelandic women’s national team will play against Denmark on August 21, a game that is a part of the World Cup qualifiers, and it will take place at the stadium in the capital. The game between Stjarnan and Inter could be played in the afternoon to avoid concurrence with the UEFA Champions League.
