Teams could receive fines if they remove sponsored drinks at conferences

Teams could receive fines if they remove sponsored drinks at conferences
Jun 18 2021 Share

Following three players removing branded drinks from in front of them during press conferences, it was announced that teams at Euro 2020 could face fines if their players were to move any sponsored drinks at news conferences. Cristiano Ronaldo removed two Coca Cola bottles on Monday, followed by Pogba who removed Heineken and Italy’s Locatelli who also removed Coca Cola.

However UEFA has reminded participating teams that ‘partnerships are integral to the delivery of the tournament and to ensuring the development of football across Europe’, in a statement on Thursday. Despite understanding situations like Pogba’s, who removed the alcohol due to his religious faith, UEFA pointed out that players were contractually obliged with regulations. Any sanctions are taken at the discretion of the national federations.

Tomorrowland 2021 officially cancelled

Tomorrowland 2021 officially cancelled
Jun 18 2021 Share

Despite being planned to welcome 70,000 each weekend, Tomorrowland 2021 has officially been cancelled. The event was set to happen August 27th to the 29th and September 3rd to the 5th, but the mayor of Boom and Rumst did not give the green-light for the festival’s proposed dates. The reason permission was not given, according to the mayor, was due to the lack of the Ministerial Decree which states that only events up to 400 people would be possible.

More reasons were followed-up, stating that pressure would be placed on police if any COVID-19 passport checking were to take place. This would use up too much police resource and police time. The team behind the giant festival expressed the heartbreaking news by saying that ‘the mayor of Boom and his council have indicated to us that we can go to the council of state against this decision.’ There have been no further updates so far, but the team hopes that people attending will hear more clarity.
