December 14, 2021 Man Utd’s Midweek Clash With Brentford Postponed After Covid-19 Outbreak

Man Utd’s Midweek Clash With Brentford Postponed After Covid-19 Outbreak

Manchester United's Premier League match against Brentford on Tuesday night has been postponed after a Covid-19 outbreak at the Old Trafford club.

The league says the decision was made "following guidance from medical advisers due to the exceptional circumstances" of the outbreak.

Earlier, United shut down operations at their Carrington training ground to minimise the risk of infection.

In the past week 42 Premier League players and staff have tested positive.

Brighton, Tottenham, Leicester, Aston Villa and Norwich have all confirmed cases and Sunday's Brighton v Tottenham fixture was postponed following a Covid-19 outbreak at Spurs.

United say positives cases among staff and players reported on Sunday have been confirmed by PCR tests and the outbreak "requires ongoing surveillance".

All of Manchester United's players tested negative before Saturday's 1-0 win at Norwich, but some tested positive before training on Sunday morning.

Roma won for the first time in three Serie A matches as they defeated Spezia on Monday.

But Roma, who move up to sixth, ended the game with 10 men when substitute Felix Afena-Gyan was shown a second yellow card late on after a handball.

Roma had suffered successive league defeats - against Bologna and Inter Milan - earlier this month.

After 17 matches, Jose Mourinho's men are 12 points behind Serie A leaders Inter and play at third-placed Atalanta on Saturday.
