The English Football Association has moved to take into account the fasting of Muslim players during matches held during Ramadan, which began on Saturday in many Islamic countries, including Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
The BBC network reported that FA Cup matches held during the month of Ramadan will be paused for a short period to allow Muslim players to break their fast.
“Players who celebrate Ramadan will be allowed a short period of time during matches to break their fast, starting from the fifth round of FA Cup, and a specific time will be agreed upon to stop matches,” it added.
Among the matches that will be paused during the fifth round are Manchester City vs Plymouth, and Manchester United vs Fulham.
Several Muslim players could participate, such as Manchester City duo Omar Marmoush and Abdulkadir Khusanov, Manchester United defender Noussair Mazraoui, and Fulham winger Adama Traore.
BBC concluded its report by saying that the English Premier League had issued similar directives during the month of Ramadan in recent years, allowing Muslim players the opportunity to break their fast.
