The Regional Amateur Football Committee of Lombardy has suspended a total of 42 matches of different championships, from youth to women's category, for the “critical problems” caused by the coronavirus, which has claimed the lives of two affected in the north of the country , where about 50,000 people have been blocked by the restrictions imposed on a dozen locations.

The association confirmed on its official website (http://www.crlombardia.it/) that the day to be played this weekend was “postponed” by the “criticism” situation around the outbreak of coronavirus in the north of the country where already 34 infections have been confirmed, the majority in Lombardy, although there have been a couple of cases in Veneto and three in Lazio.

In addition, volleyball and hockey competitions will also be altered. The Italian Volleyball Federation has decided to suspend matches of the men's Serie B and the women's Serie B 1 and, through a statement, have invited the regional and territorial committees of Lombardy and Emilia Romagna and the men's and women's Leagues of the Series A to take similar measures “to safeguard common health.”

For its part, the Italian skating sports federation (FISR) has suspended matches of the A / 1, B series and the youth roller hockey matches on February 22, in which Lodi teams play.
