Atletico Madrid have refunded 290 fans who decided against travelling to watch them play Liverpool due to coronavirus fears – after the hosts refused to hand back any money, according to reports.
The visitors went on to win the game on March 11 and advance to the quarter-final stage of the Champions League – but there were concerns pre-match that it should not have been held.
Madrid was already in the middle of the COVID-19 crisis yet neither UEFA nor the government in the UK moved to have the game played behind closed doors.
