Atalanta vs Lecce: Why was Serie A match postponed a day before kick off?
Atalanta’s Serie A match against Lecce scheduled for Friday has been postponed after the death of the visitors’ physiotherapist, Lecce said in a statement on Thursday.
“The physiotherapist (Graziano Fiorita), who had been with the Giallorossi for over twenty years, was with the team at their training camp in Coccaglio,” the club said in a statement.
“The team will immediately return to Lecce, as tomorrow’s scheduled match against Atalanta will be postponed.”
Atalanta is third in Serie A on 64 points, seven behind leader Inter Milan. Lecce is 17th with 26, a point above the relegation zone with five rounds of matches remaining
