UEFA President Michel Platini has not ruled out that Ukraine might be deprived of the right to stage the Euro 2012 European Football Championship.
"We need to pass a decision early in December on Madeira. December is the deadline. We are still playing with time, but we are gradually approaching the deadline. If Ukraine [does not host the championship], we will have to find another two stadiums (apart from the three selected in Poland). We'll wait and see," the French sports Web site L'Equipe quoted Platini as saying.
When asked by L'Equipe whether it will be possible to replace Ukraine's potential host cities with Berlin or Leipzig, as proposed by the German Football Federation, the UEFA president said that this could be the case.
