The full-fledged start of the European Cup autumn is approaching. Even though we have to wait until the beginning of October for the Conference League matches, this tournament is already generating a lot of news around it, some of which can even be called historic.

Details: The Welsh club The New Saints have not found a stadium in their home country that can host all three of the team's matches in the Conference League, and because of that UEFA has had to bypass its own rule that matches must be played in its own field and allow the team to play their home games in England.

But the club's press office named an equally shocking venue for home matches - New Meadow Stadium in Shrewsbury, which hosts English League One side Shrewsbury Town.

Reminder: In the league stage of the Conference League, New Saints will take on Astana, Djurgården and Panathinaikos.
