Uefa plot major change to Champions League format after revamping group stages and scrapping away goals UEFA are considering another major change to the Champions League after introducing a brand new format this season.
Whereas in Europe there has been the expansion of the Champions League with the new league phase meaning all teams now play a minimum of eight matches.
Now execs at Uefa are discussing the idea of getting rid of extra time in the Champions League knockout stages.
The change would see tied up Champions League knockout games head straight to penalties at full time.
However, only three Champions League ties from the last 16 went to extra time last season.
