'It's the best way to protect': Guardiola calls for mask-wearing mandate in stadiums

Pep Guardiola believes masks should be mandatory in every public space to help ensure games will not have to be played in closed stadiums again due to the surge in Covid cases. Facing the prospect of football being played behind closed doors Guardiola said: 'I would not love it, honestly. You cannot imagine how different it is playing with people. But cases rise all around the world, not only in the UK, and in the football bubbles. These people go to the stadiums and can contaminate [others because] in the stadiums, people don’t use masks.'
