Hell in a Cell: UEFA accepts Real Madrid’s request to close Bernabéu roof against Man City

Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) has accepted Real Madrid‘s proposal to close the roof of their Santiago Bernabeu stadium during Tuesday night’s quarter final first leg Champions League match against Arsenal.
The Spanish giants, 14-time winners of the UEFA Champions League, hope playing under the optional covering of their newly-redeveloped arena can enhance the atmosphere and make it more intimidating for the visitors.
They reportedly want noise generated home fans to be trapped within the confines of the stadium.
Diaspora Digital Media has gathered that the club and its players have also been urging supporters to wear the club’s traditional white in the build-up to add a further strong visual element to the environment at the 81,000-capacity stadium.
Real previously had the roof closed for their last-16 second leg against Leipzig last month.
City are not thought to have any influence on the matter.
