UEFA punishes Armenian players

UEFA has fined the Armenian Football Federation 10,000 euros for violation of quarantine rules.

In October, Armenians visiting Estonia in the League of Nations' group stage visited the Armenian church in Tallin before the match and met with young players of local Ararat FC. However, the day before, one of the team members tested positive for the coronavirus.

According to the quarantine rules of UEFA's "return to match" protocol, the team members should not leave the hotel, except for emergency cases.

Armenian Football Federation has to pay the penalty within 90 days.
