Champions League match between "Atalanta" and "Villarreal" on Wednesday was postponed due to heavy snow in northern Italy. Initially, the match was delayed by 20 minutes, but eventually the decision was made to change the match date. The new date and time have not been decided yet, but it is likely that the match will be played on Thursday. In Bergamo, snow fell for most of the day, and as the match approached, it became stronger. Employees constantly shoveled snow from the pitch and painted the white lines with red paint, making every effort for the match to start. However, the referee, along with the UEFA delegate and the teams, eventually decided to postpone the match. In these matches, it will be decided which team will join the group winner, "Manchester United", in the next stage. "Atalanta" is behind second-placed "Villarreal" in points, so they need a victory to move up to second place. Meanwhile, "Villarreal" will be satisfied with a draw.
For the time being, the inclusion of Santa Claus 🎅🛷 in the lineup is not ruled out...#UCL pic.twitter.com/ZGFLm9qstY — Villarreal CF (@VillarrealCF) December 8, 2021
