The death of Pope Francis has sent shockwaves across Italy

The death of Pope Francis has sent shockwaves across Italy, leaving a profound impact not only on the religious and political landscape but also on the world of sport. As a sign of respect, Serie A has officially postponed four fixtures originally scheduled for today.

The affected matches include:

  • Torino vs Udinese
  • Cagliari vs Fiorentina
  • Genoa vs Lazio
  • Parma vs Juventus

In an official statement, Serie A confirmed: “Following the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis, the league can confirm that today’s scheduled Serie A fixtures have been postponed. New dates for these matches will be communicated in due course.”

This unexpected development adds a layer of logistical complexity to an already congested football calendar, with limited room for rescheduling. However, given the magnitude of the event, the league’s response reflects the national mood and the cultural significance of the moment.
