Inter-Roma, the key match of the 34th matchday, will be played on Sunday at 3:00 p.m. instead of Saturday at 6:00 p.m. The Serie A League has thus rearranged the calendar to coincide with the funeral of Pope Francis.
Of the other two matches scheduled for April 26, Lazio-Parma, which was scheduled for Saturday evening at 20.45, has been moved to Monday at 20.45, while Como-Genoa will be played on Sunday at 12.30.
For the match between the Nerazzurri and the Giallorossi, the Government had granted an exemption, with the possibility of playing the match on Saturday at 8.45 pm, but the Nerazzurri club preferred to respect the mourning of Pope Francis and not take the field on the day of the Pontiff's funeral.
It will be the first time that an Italian team involved in a semi-final of a European cup will take to the field on Sunday, but the decision of the entire Inter team (not only the management but also the team and players) "was to respect the mourning and postpone the match".
