Why does the AFC Champions League have an intermission?

Football is a sport that requires great physical strength and energy. Rest and training are very important. A long and intensive schedule will make players physically and mentally exhausted.

All countries have domestic leagues, cups and other competitions to avoid schedule conflicts.

Intermittent period not only allows players to rest and adjust, but also provides the team with an opportunity to re-formulate tactics and play to improve the overall state. In case of injury, the team also has enough time to adjust and supplement and improve the level of the game.
