Corona outbreak at AZ: match against VVV will continue | ...


The infections are among two players from Young AZ and four from the A selection. For privacy reasons, the club does not disclose names.

Next Thursday, AZ must play at Napoli in Italy for the first group match in the Europa League.

The club from Naples received a corona wave earlier this month. Partly because of this, Napoli did not show up for the away game against Juventus on October 4. In principle, UEFA and the KNVB adhere to the same guideline: if a club has thirteen fit players, including a goalkeeper, a duel can proceed.

FC Groningen reported four infections on Thursday and is eagerly awaiting the results of a new test round. Those results will follow on Saturday, one day before the home game against FC Utrecht. Sparta Rotterdam could breathe a sigh of relief on Friday after all players had tested negative, both in a quick test and in a regular test. Earlier this week, three employees of the premier league club were found positive during an extra check. The derby against Feyenoord in De Kuip is scheduled for Sparta on Sunday.

In Dutch professional football, five games have now been canceled or moved due to player shortages due to corona cases: RKC Waalwijk – PEC Zwolle, FC Den Bosch – Almere City, De Graafschap – NAC Breda, NAC Breda – Cambuur and Helmond Sport – De Graafschap.

The KNVB has urged all professional clubs to strictly observe the corona protocols. “We cannot keep moving games indefinitely, otherwise not only will the competition be under great pressure but also the support base will disappear,” said a spokesman on Friday.

“Professional football is the only sport that can continue, precisely because we have arranged it so well in our corona protocols. Then the clubs must adhere to this and prevent people from having to be quarantined unnecessarily. ”
