Milan. The Italian government has canceled all sporting events in Lombardy and Veneto for Sunday due to the spread of the coranavirus. This also affects the Serie A games Inter Milan against Sampdoria Genoa, Hellas Verona against Cagliari Calcio and Atalanta Bergamo against Sassuolo Calcio. In the afternoon, the second division game between Ascoli Calcio and US Cremonese was canceled.
On Saturday evening, the Italian government decided to cordon off the most affected cities in the north of the country. This locks up tens of thousands of people living in these areas. In Italy, 76 infections with the Sars-CoV-2 virus had previously been recorded, two people are said to have died from it. This makes Italy the European country with by far the largest number of Sars CoV-2 infected people.
