Champions League not for Legia Warszawa

Winners of the Polish top league Ekstraklasa, Legia Warszawa, after spectacularly winning with Celtic Glasgow 4:1 and 2:0, have been disqualified from further matches in the Champions League. UEFA's decision is based on the fact, that from 87th minute of the second match, Legia's player Bartosz Bereszyński participated in the game. Last year's red card meant that he should not have played in the three first matches of this season. Unfortunately, Legia did not send a confirmation of Bereszyński being a player in first three games (two with Irish team St. Patrick's and the first one with Celtic). Such a mistake in paperwork resulted in Legia not having a chance to participate in further qualification games for Champions League. The club wishes to question the legality of this decision. In case of Legia qualifying to the tournament, the club's budget would be supplied with at least €8.6 million.
