In 2022, the final match of the Champions League was scheduled to take place in St. Petersburg. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
However, after UEFA imposed sanctions on the Russian Football Federation, the final match was moved to Paris. According to Alexander Medvedev, the head of the "Zenit" club in St. Petersburg, efforts will be made to hold the final match in St. Petersburg again once the football sanctions against Russia are lifted.
He emphasized that as soon as they return to the international arena, the issue of bringing the Champions League final back to their city will be raised. The last Champions League final took place on May 31 in Munich. In this match, Paris's "PSG" team defeated the Italian club "Inter" with a score of 5:0.
This game was followed with great interest, and the difference in strength between the teams was clearly evident. The goal of the "Zenit" club is to host the final of this competition in their city in the coming years.
For this, it is crucial to lift the restrictions imposed by international football organizations.
