Civil Protection Minister Nello
Musumeci said Tuesday that the sporting events scheduled to take
place in Italy on Saturday, including three Serie A soccer
games, will be postponed because Pope Francis's funeral is
taking place on that day.
The matches are Como-Genoa, Inter-Roma and Lazio-Parma.
Four Serie A games that had been scheduled to take place on
Monday, Cagliari-Fiorentina, Genoa-Lazio, Parma-Juventus and
Torino-Udinese, were moved to Wednesday after the pope's
passing.
