UEFA has announced a dramatic change to match arrangements in this Summer's European Championship in France. All matches will be played behind closed doors and later reenacted by actors in front of a live stadium audience.
UEFA has been working in liaison with Europol and other police and security agencies on terrorism prevention, and has decided the risk of a terrorist attack is too great for the actual fixtures to be played in front of the public.
When asked why terrorists wouldn't simply attack the reenacted games, a spokesman for UEFA said that since none of the star players would be present it would be a "bit of a crap target really".
