Saturday’s Serie A game between Bologna and AC Milan was postponed because of heavy rain and flooding in the region.<\/b><\/p>\n

The two clubs and Serie A organisers met on Friday in an attempt to find alternative arrangements after Bologna mayor Matteo Lepore announced he had ordered the suspension of the match.<\/p>\n

However, they failed to reach an agreement, with solutions such as playing the game in Bologna behind closed doors or at a neutral stadium rejected.<\/p>\n

A rescheduled date for the fixture at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara has yet to be announced.<\/p>\n

“The match is postponed because with a decision that in my opinion is incomprehensible, the mayor has prohibited the match from being played even behind closed doors,” AC Milan chairman Paolo Scaroni told reporters after the meeting.<\/p>\n

The municipality of Bologna said the game would bring 35,000 people near the most critical area of the city.<\/p>\n

AC Milan are due to take on Serie A leaders Napoli on Tuesday, while Bologna travel to Cagliari.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
