UEFA's decision to postpone all national team matches in June was a formality.
Footballers cannot play games during an international crisis, and the coronavirus pandemic has not yet peaked throughout Europe.
The video conference call lasted nearly two-and-a-half hours, an hour longer than scheduled, but there was unity across all 55 member associations.
It is remarkable how together the football community is at the moment," said an official who was on the call.
Tellingly, not one association raised the issue of cancelling the season.
European football wants to finish the current season, even if there is a growing acceptance that the preferred deadline of June 30 is likely to be further delayed.
Various scenarios were discussed, including turning international fixtures into three-game slots, rather than the current two-game windows.
UEFA associations also discussed the feasibility of scheduling European matches - in the Champions League and Europa League - on similar dates to domestic games.
They are working towards anything which reduces the prospect of having to drop games.
Europe's associations will meet again later this month.
Their priority remains finishing the current season before considering when to start the next.
But only when it is safe to do so.
