However, UEFA asserts its opposition to national league matches being played abroad, and allowing the two matches is "regrettable" and should not be considered a precedent.

In this regard, it was Ceferin who clarified that the idea is not for league matches to leave their countries:

"League matches should be played at home; any other measure would deprive loyal fans of their rights and could introduce distorting elements into the competitions. Our consultation confirmed the extent of these concerns. While it is regrettable to have to allow these two matches to be held, this decision is exceptional and should not be considered a precedent. Our commitment is clear: to protect the integrity of national leagues and ensure that football remains anchored in its local scope".

In addition to the match between the Yellow Submarine and The Culés, UEFA also allowed the match between Milan and Como to be played in Perth.
