In Italy, the coronavirus outbreak is adjusting sports event plans. On Sunday, four Serie A matches were postponed, and on Thursday, the UEFA Europa League round of sixteen match between the teams "Inter" and "Ludogorets" will take place behind closed doors.
This decision was made in consultation with UEFA to ensure maximum safety and prevent the possible spread of the virus. It is likely that most Serie A matches this season will be played behind closed doors. This option has already been proposed, but it must be approved by both the clubs and the Italian authorities.
In Italy, more than 200 people have already been infected with the new virus, and there have been reports of 7 deaths.
