ÊÎÌÌÅÍÒÀÐÈÈ:
The game was played at empty stands due to a UEFA ban, as a result of the incidents of some English supporters in the game against RSC Anderlecht played in Brussels on 21-04-1982, corresponding to the previous edition of Champions Cup. This is the second time an English club receives this kind of ban, after West Ham United FC in Cup Winners Cup 1980-81.
