Kiev: Istanbul’s Ataturk Olympic Stadium will host the 2020 Champions League final, UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin confirmed here, Thursday. The 76,000-capacity ground played host to Liverpool’s famous comeback from 3-0 down to win the Champions League on penalties over AC Milan in 2005. UEFA has been under pressure to ensure future final host cities have the hotel and airport infrastructure to cope with the influx of fans, delegates and media for the biggest game in club football. Liverpool have complained to UEFA after their fans have faced spiralling accommodation and travel costs for trying to attend Saturday’s final against holders Real Madrid here. “They just don’t have the airport infrastructure and the hotel capacity to cope with an event of this size,” Liverpool chief executive Peter Moore said.
