Article body
Following last night's attack in Manchester, UEFA has confirmed that a minute's silence will be observed prior to the UEFA Europa League final in Stockholm on Wednesday night.
The opening ceremony will also be considerably reduced as a mark of respect for the victims of the Manchester attack.
This will mean that Swedish artists Axwell ^ Ingrosso will now not be performing before the final.
