TURIN. Three more positives. And training at the suspended Filadelfia. The exams two days ago had gone well, but the contagion in the Toro home does not stop, which now risks an outbreak. The checks today have traced the cases that jeopardize the departure, tomorrow, of the team to Bergamo, where the first match of the second round against Atalanta is scheduled for Thursday afternoon. The last to fall into the net should be two players and a staff member, in all 5 would be affected by the Coronavirus of the Juric squad and 2 among the group that trains and treats them. Toro does not specify the roles, limiting himself to a general “team group elements”, but an ever-higher number remains which could lead ASL, which has already put Turin on the bubble for a few days, to ban him from traveling. The new round of tampons expected in 24 hours will be decisive. Meanwhile, Verdi has just recovered, as his girlfriend testifies on Instagram.
The protocol of the Serie A League provides that in these cases the match can be played anyway – an attitude already manifested on the occasion of Udinese-Salernitana, a challenge that was not postponed despite the justified absence of the visiting team -, but his opinion would succumb to the prohibition of a state authority. For the Cairo club it could be the second postponement due to Covid, given that last year the team coached by Nicola was forced to give up the match against Lazio scheduled at the Olimpico for 10 positive cases, 8 among the players. And then recovered at the end of the season after much controversy and several passages in court.
