European football body UEFA has canceled Istanbul as the venue for a Europa League game between Besiktas and Israel's Maccabi Tel Aviv after protests from the Turkish team, according to Daily Sabah.

UEFA ruled for a "neutral" venue for the Besiktas-Maccabi Tel Aviv match.

The country and stadium where the match, originally scheduled for Nov. 28, will be announced later, media reports said.
