European soccer’s ruling body said in Vienna that it will wait until after the World Cup to decide whether to readmit English clubs to major continental tournaments.

UEFA, the European soccer federation, said it wanted to see how English fans behaved in Italy during the tournament, which begins June 8.

English clubs were barred from the top European tournaments in 1985, after 39 people died in a rampage by Liverpool fans at the Champions Cup final in Brussels.
