Inter Milan Vs Roma Serie A Clash Risks Postponement Due To Pope Francis Funeral | OneFootball

Pope Francis’ tragic passing could prompt Serie A to postpone the upcoming showdown between Inter Milan and Roma.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInter1908, the Pope’s funeral falls on the same weekend.

Therefore, Serie A could decide to push back the heavily anticipated clash at the San Siro.

Meanwhile, league officials postponed all four Monday fixtures due to the Pope’s sudden death.

Yet, these sad times will not affect Inter’s Coppa Italia semi-final decider against AC Milan tomorrow night.

Inter’s home match against Roma should take place on Saturday.

However, Serie A could still change the schedule due to the Pope’s funeral.

With fixtures coming thick and fast, that’s the last thing Simone Inzaghi needs.

Indeed, his charges remain engaged in high-profile battles on multiple fronts.

In addition to their Coppa Italia commitments, the Nerazzurri will face Barcelona in the Champions League semi-finals.

Furthermore, they’re neck and neck with Napoli in a dramatic Scudetto race.

There’s nothing but a goal difference to separate them ahead of the final five rounds.
