6:10 pm
of positive developments the. government said that they would put all the private. clinics under government control a lot of private clinics in the country because there's been a lot of privatization in the years. centralized and under government control and. commitment of the health workers here in spain is really. a lot of spontaneous applause on the streets whenever there's a doctor or a nurse on the street. and. well at the moment here in civilian it's quite calm and i think the people accept the new measures of the government i think the government tries to pursue 2 way on the one hand they try to appeal to
6:11 pm
a sense of solidarity and catcher it is and there is a new campaign we will fight the virus together and on the other hand they are also very strictly enforcing the new measures for example when i was out on the streets today for some productions for some filming several policeman stopped me and me what i was doing and what permission i have so that lot of checkpoints all over the city there are police cars with megaphones telling people that they should stay at home and of course they also had to find starting at 100 euros but even in severe cases prison sentences right now. thank you. well the world of sports have been hit hard by the coronavirus the french open tennis tournament has been shifted from may to september and european football's governing body has confirmed that the euro 2020 tournament will be postponed until
6:12 pm
next year it's also put all other men's and women's competitions on hold you a holding meetings with clubs and member associations today it hopes of postponing your 2020 means to magically will be able to play into may and june and complete this minimizing the financial impact on clubs. from jonathan crane from day job to sports welcome jonathan so you have a decision in a nutshell what's behind it well i think they've basically realised how sting such a tournament in the current climate is totally unrealistic they've seen the piling up of fixtures in the domestic leagues they've said it's more important to help the domestic leagues try to finish the season i think they want to ease the burden on the countries that were due to host this tournament they will get their chance in 2021. on the 11th of june the 11th of july now as we said you have his decision followed to video conferences today one with clubs and leagues the other with the
6:13 pm
55 member associations you have president alexander. praised the solidarity shared by everyone because this was obviously no easy decision now it's all going to be about the detail the way for has set up a working group that will look at how the football calendar is going to look going forward and also assess the financial consequences of phoning such a tournament and so where does this leave clubs and leagues around europe well primarily it does give them the chance to finish the season we've seen how the current virus has caused all major european leagues including the bonus league that's a grind so a whole it's not cool so much uncertainty will the competitions be finished what will happen with promotions and relegations and what about players whose contracts it's huge for expire today we have from the head of the german. christian saif and he talked about how a football in germany alone employs 56000 people so imagine all the onsets and see for them millions hundreds of millions of euros or so at stake for clubs and t.v. revenue now of course disposing a euro 2020 does give
6:14 pm
a bit more breathing space to domestic leagues could play into may and june but it depends really on how the coronavirus develops itself and that's the big question mark what about some of the other competitions to take place well as we said at the top or you wait for competitions now on hold on hold that includes the champions league and europa league cup for america which is the national competition for south america that's also been postponed for 2021 but of course this is now causing a pile up of tournament as well the women's euros would you to take place next year in london from july the 7th talk now from members say stations that they will be moved to 2022 that's not the only clash they. will be competing with an extra fee for holds its club world cup that is jenny infantino his pet project so a lot of discussions between organizations need to take place $1.00 silver lining potentially that the world cup that would normally take place in june july 2020 will take place in november because of the weather so that gives some free time
