After charging Roma over fans setting off fireworks and blocking exits during last months 3 – 1 Champions League win over Chelsea, UEFA has ordered changes ahead of Roma’s hosting of the Champions League Final in May.

Last season UEFA officials said Rome’s Stadio Olimpico could lose the final if there was the continual trouble that has marred several Roma matches in Europe in recent years and just recently UEFA ordered that the barriers between fans and the pitch must to be removed, a trademark in Italian soccer.

“It is one of the fundamental requirements for stadiums that host our finals,” UEFA competitions director Giorgio Marchetti told Rai radio. “The facilities should not have barriers in the public areas. Basically, there shouldn’t be cages for the fans.”
