Bologna owner Joey Saputo insisted, at least out of respect, that the rescheduled game should only be played at the Dall’Ara Stadium.

Nobody knows when the game will be played. Only prefectural and municipal regulations made it necessary to refuse the kickoff.

Playing behind closed doors or at other venues was also ruled out, but Milan would have accepted such solutions.
