Kazan stripped of UEFA Super Cup

Wednesday 1st February 2023

UEFA has moved the location of this year's UEFA Super Cup from the Russian city of Kazan to Athens in response to the war in Ukraine.

It is the latest in a long line of sporting sanctions against Russia, having been disqualified from the 2022 World Cup, thrown out of UEFA competitions and also losing the right to host last year's Champions League final, which should have been held in St Petersburg.

The match will now be played in Athens' Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium, home of Olympiacos.
