Glasgow City to play Champions League clash with Wolfsburg on neutral ground in Spain

UEFA have announced that all of the final matches of the competition will be played between two venues, the iconic San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao and the Anoeta Stadium in nearby San Sebastian.

The matches, originally scheduled to be played over two legs, will also be one-off games, most likely behind completely closed doors.

The final date and location of Glasgow City’s match will be confirmed when the four quarter final ties are pulled out of the hat at a UEFA scheduled draw in Nyon on June 26.

The Frauen Bundesliga has fully returned to competitive action and Wolfsburg have just clinched their fourth successive League title.

And with City yet to resume training after Covid-19 derailed all training and competition in Scotland in March, club manager Laura Montgomery is eager for the team to get back.

She said: "The announcement from UEFA now gives us a clear focus.

"We know, given the stringent protocols required for the resumption of training and playing in Scotland, it is most likely going to delay the commencement of our League with any real significance until much later in the year.

"This is understandable as for all clubs, the cost of testing, irrespective of the other safety measures required, simply makes it financially very challenging to return.

"However, for ourselves, we have no choice. We somehow must return and are currently working towards that. We have the biggest game possible against one of the world’s very best sides in only two months time and the prospect of further UEFA competition soon after as we enter the Champions League for 20/21.

"Not returning to train is simply is not an option for our club and also for the integrity of the Scottish game as we proudly represent our nation in the biggest and most elite club competition in the world.”
