The match between Roma and St. Pölten was delayed due to torrential rain.

The match between Roma and St. Pölten, part of the Women’s Champions League Group C, was played under heavy rain and eventually had to be suspended at the beginning of extra time due to waterlogged pitches.

The safety of players from both sides was deemed to be a priority by the referee, who called off play shortly after the beginning of extra time. The match was eventually postponed and a new date is yet to be set as both teams look for a suitable window.

The delay in the match has caused some disruption to Roma’s Champions League campaign, as they could have potentially secured progression with a win over St. Pölten.

The inspection revealed that the pitch was too waterlogged for play to continue, and the match between Roma and St. Pölten was delayed due to the torrential rain. The weather conditions put a damper on what should have been an exciting Women’s Champions League clash between two of Europe’s top clubs.

The match was eventually postponed, with a new date to be announced in due course. The safety of all players and officials was the priority for UEFA, as decisions such as these can have serious repercussions if not taken seriously.

The league will continue to monitor the situation closely and make sure that proper precautions are taken for any future fixtures.
