A day after UEFA and CONMEBOL announced their intentions to postpone Euro 2020 and Copa America by a year, FIFA has given them the green light.
FIFA announced Wednesday that it has placed the two competitions on its international calendar from June 11 to July 11 in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak that has forced every sports league and competition to shake up its future.
The decision was taken unanimously by the FIFA Council, which also was left with no choice but to postpone plans for an expanded, 24-team Club World Cup, which was originally going to be held in the summer of 2021.
