TYSON FURY ANNOUNCES HIS RETIREMENT FROM BOXING

Times Sport confirmed the news on its official website stating that the organisers are keen on making the change from the 2024/25 football season. According to reports from the news agency, the change will happen from the semi-final stage of the competition, the major European clubs are already backing the idea.

The changes will see the traditional two-legged semi-final games cancelled into a one-leg match at a neutral venue, the final of the competition will also be played in the same week as the semis. If the proposal is accepted, this will be the first time that the semi-finals will be played in one leg since 1995.

However, this will be the second major change the organisers are bringing to the competition, the earlier change which was implemented was the cancellation of the away goal rule which started this season ( 2021/22).
