Roberto Fabbricini, the
Commissioner of the Italian Soccer Federation (FIGC), said
Friday that he thought this weekend's first set of Serie A
fixtures of the season should be postponed after Tuesday's
bridge-collapse disaster in Genoa.
The Serie A League has so far postponed only the games
involving the city's two top-flight teams - Sampdoria-Fiorentina
and AC Milan-Genoa.
"It is legitimate for those who experienced these dramatic
days in Genoa to ask for the championship not to start,"
Fabbricini told State broadcaster RAI.
"Saturday is a day of national mourning and I think every
opinion about a possible postponement is correct.
"There can be no doubt that a pause for reflection is
needed".
