The final will take place on May 28, 2022 at the Krestovsky Stadium in St. Petersburg, Russia. Originally, the match was to take place at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany. This is due to the fact that the 2020 UCL final has been postponed and moved to St. Petersburg, Russia. There will no longer be an away goals rule in all UEFA club competitions from June 2021.

Will there be VAR in the 2021-22 UEFA Champions League?

The International Football Association Board permanently added VAR to football laws in March 2018. The use of VAR in tournaments was always voluntary, and the English Premier League and UEFA Champions League were not to use VAR during the 2018-19 season. As in the 2019/20 season, video assistant referees (VARs) were used for the first time in the UEFA Champions League.

This means that there will be VAR in the 2021/22 UEFA Champions League campaign. There have been four changing circumstances where the VAR is deployed to assist the referee in making judgments, such as goals, penalty area events, red cards, and misidentification. As soon as there is evidence of a clear and apparent error, the VAR informs the referee.

Subsequently, the referee may render a final judgment in the examination area near the pitch. If there was an infraction immediately after the event, the VAR may also take this into account during the offensive phase of play. To determine whether a foul has been committed inside or outside a box, the VAR recommends a decision to the referee and no field examination is required. Using either the stadium stadium screens or the public announcement system, this procedure is relayed to the crowd.
