The city of Bologna is bracing itself for a potential blow after the local authorities denied the use of Stadio Dall’Ara due to safety concerns. The wave of bad weather that has hit the Emilian capital has left officials scrambling for a solution to the highly anticipated match between Bologna and Milan, originally scheduled for this Saturday.
The struggle is real for the management of the match, as they push to find an alternative venue to host the game. The hypothesis of playing behind closed doors is no longer an option, and the municipality has made it clear that the Dall’Ara will not be considered.
As the clock ticks down, the prospect of postponing the game seems increasingly likely. According to the news, the Mayor Mattew Lepore has confirmed that a meeting with the Lega Serie A representatives has taken place, and it appears that a “sensitive decision” is being made.
Ersilia reporst, that the Mayor, Matteo Lepore, is looking for a long-term solution. “We are moving towards a choice that is an act of sensitivity towards our territory”, he said.
The game, previously scheduled for 6 pm, is now hanging in the balance as the parties involved try to find a solution. The league is working to identify an alternative venue, with Empoli and Como having been ruled out.
It remains to be seen what the future holds, but for now, the people of Bologna can rest easy knowing that their leaders are working hard to find a solution to this very real and pressing issue.
