The Coronavirus Makes Its Mark On Football by ozywin(m): 6:54pm On Mar 15, 2020
The spread of the Coronavirus worldwide has had a massive
knock-on effect on football and sport in general. As to be expect,
governments and sporting bodies are erring on the side of caution due to
the possible implications on people’s health.

All sport suspended in Italy
Italy seems to have been the worse hit of the European countries when it comes to the illness. The country has been on almost lockdown, with travel restrictions and bans on public gatherings. According to the BBC, 463 people have now died in the country due to the virus. The measures taken by the government are understandable.

On Sunday night, before some of the measures being put in place, two
of Italy’s top teams met in Turin, as Juventus beat title rivals Inter
2-0 at the Allianz Stadium. The game was played behind closed doors. In
truth, the atmosphere was surreal for one of the biggest games in the
Serie A season.
