THE FOUR SERIE A matches scheduled to take place on Monday have been postponed to a later date following the death of Pope Francis, the Italian top flight said in a statement.
Udinese’s game at Torino, Fiorentina’s visit to Cagliari, Genoa’s match against Lazio and Juventus’ trip to Parma will be rescheduled.
The games will have to fit into a congested finish to the season, potentially clashing with the Champions League semi-finals.
The Vatican said Pope Francis, a keen football fan, died aged 88 on Monday.
