Watch Elizabeth II’s tribute plans on tour

Below are the UK’s tributes to Queen Elizabeth II. The last round has been cancelled, however, as of Friday (16) matches will be played again in the Premier League, the major league of Great Britain. However, there will be changes due to recent events.

Premier League clubs will play the national anthem before matches start in honor of the Queen, who passed away last Thursday. This will be the first time this has been done in a competition.

The measure was also attempted to be implemented in the Champions League by Manchester City and Chelsea, but UEFA did not authorize it. Already in Scotland, Rangers will likely bypass the European entity and play the anthem in his honor.

In addition to the national anthem, the coaches of all the teams that will take to the field this weekend will be encouraged to wear suits. Off the field, a one-minute applause will be held at the 70th to mark the 70th anniversary of the accession of the late Queen Elizabeth II.

The Premier League will be held again this weekend in the UK. However, some matches will not take place and the postponement has already been confirmed.

The confrontations between Liverpool, Chelsea and Leeds against Manchester United had to be postponed due to the lack of available police.

British police have mobilized in preparation for the Queen’s funeral, which is scheduled to take place on Monday and is expected to go down in history. The event will require a huge amount of law enforcement and security forces.

Meanwhile, the confrontation between Brighton and Crystal Palace has been postponed due to train strikes in England.

The postponement of the last round caused criticism

Many criticized the decision of the English Premier League to postpone the last round of an already narrow season due to the 2022 World Cup. With his decision, the situation of many clubs that are already facing the backlog of matches will deteriorate.

Some people argued that other local sports such as cricket, rugby and horse racing were not put off, so there was no reason for football to stop.

Regardless of whether the decision was correct or not, many controversial events in the country drew attention:

• A club in the English lower league, Wrexham, has come under fire after hearing some of the team’s fans taunted during a minute’s silence before this week’s game;
• A Preston North End fan received a severe penalty by being banned from the club’s stadium for good. The individual made comments about the Queen and the royal family that were deemed “off limits of acceptance”;
• In the confrontation between Liverpool and Ajax, some fans booed during the minute of silence, but were instantly silenced.
