Liverpool's Champions League match against Atletico Madrid on Mar 11 was played in front of 52,000 supporters. LONDON: The decision to let Liverpool's Champions League match against Atletico Madrid go ahead may have"led to 41 additional deaths" due to the coronavirus, the Sunday Times reported.

Imperial College London and Oxford University have estimated Spain had around 640,000 positive COVID-19 cases at the time that the match went ahead compared to 100,000 in Britain at that stage. But racing in Britain was suspended on Mar 17 in response to the pandemic after the British Horseracing Authority was widely criticised for allowing the festival to go ahead.
