As a result of the outbreak of the deadly coronavirus in Italy, at least five Italian Serie A football matches have been postponed.

The games, including Juventus vs Inter, were initially billed led to be played behind closed doors after the government banned public gatherings in an effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

All five soccer games, which also include matches between AC Milan-Genoa, Parma-Spal, Sassuolo-Brescia and Udinese-Fiorentina, will be played instead on May 13.

However, a soccer official, speaking off the record, said broadcasters and fans did not want the matches to be played in empty stadiums.
