Inter Milan's chief says serie A season runs risk of not finishing if more football matches are postponed because of coronavirus
Inter Milan chief Giuseppe Marotta says,"Balance of the championship has been altered" because some matches have been postponed and others not due to virus that's killed 34 and infected 1,700 in Italy.
He added that, because some matches had been postponed and others had not, the "balance of the championship has been altered. It's a distorted tournament. You just need to think of injuries and suspensions. And there is the psychological aspect when you look at the standings." The Serie A league called an emergency meeting for Wednesday to discuss the consequences of the government measures and the rescheduling of matches.Italy has registered more than 1,700 confirmed cases of coronavirus since the contagion came to light in wealthy northern regions on February 20 and at least 34 people have died.
Lazio's matches — away to Genoa last Sunday and at home to Bologna on Saturday — were in regions unaffected by coronavirus.
