Moroccan fa ban stadium attendance over coronavirus fears
You're referring to the recent news about the Moroccan FA banning stadium attendance due to coronavirus fears!
Yes, that's correct. On March 12, 2020, the Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) announced that all professional football matches in Morocco would be played behind closed doors until further notice, due to concerns over the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This decision was made in consultation with the Moroccan Ministry of Health and the World Health Organization (WHO), and was aimed at reducing the risk of transmission of the virus at football matches.
The FRMF also implemented other measures to prevent the spread of the virus, including:
- Increasing the distance between players and officials on the pitch.
- Reducing the number of people allowed in the stadium's technical areas.
- Improving ventilation and air circulation in the stadiums.
- Providing hand sanitizer and masks to players, officials, and staff.
These measures were taken to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone involved in Moroccan football, including players, officials, and spectators.
It's worth noting that this decision was not unique to Morocco, as many other countries and football associations around the world have taken similar measures to combat the spread of the virus.
I hope that helps clarify things!
