Arsenal announce they'll play UEFA Women's Champions League match against Bayern Munich at Meadow Park after scheduling conflict with the men's team.
The club came under fire earlier this month after revealing they'd been forced to move their group stage fixture on 18 December away from Emirates Stadium, in favour of the men's team who are up against Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup quarter-final.
After ongoing talks with UEFA, it's understood they've granted special dispensation for the match to be played at Arsenal's previous home, given the unique combination of factors that required a new location.
Our @UWCL match against Bayern Munich will now take place at the Mangata Pay UK Stadium Meadow Park on Wednesday 18th December.
