The following restrictions apply:
-
No media representatives are allowed on the field of play before, during or after the match, with the exception of camera crews and audiovisual rights holders conducting activities approved by both teams including, but not limited to, MD-1, pre- and post-match presentations and interviews.
-
No media representatives may enter the tunnel, with the exception of camera crews and audiovisual rights holders conducting activities approved by both teams.
-
No media representatives may enter a team dressing room prior to the team's arrival, with the exception of camera crews approved by both teams to film the players' shirts and equipment.
-
Subject to the agreement of the team(s) in question, these crews may also film the players inside the dressing room(s).
-
Each audiovisual rights holder may record a brief presentation in a team dressing room, subject to the team's prior agreement.
A limited number of photographers, camera operators and production staff of the audiovisual rights holders – all equipped with the appropriate pitch-access accreditation – are allowed to work in the area between the boundaries of the field of play and the spectators (see Annex D).
The team dressing rooms are off limits to media representatives before, during and after the match. However, subject to the teams’ prior agreement, one camera crew of the host broadcaster may enter the dressing rooms to film the players’ shirts and equipment. This filming must be completed before the arrival of the players, at least 90 minutes before kick-off. Any additional dressing room access for media (e.g. for post-match celebrations) must be agreed between the relevant team and UEFA in advance.
A position in the main stand should be foreseen for a camera crew from each team to conduct technical filming. Generally they should be in a central position or a position agreed by the teams and the local press officer.
