Varese’s Ossola stadium has been vandalised, putting today’s Serie B game against Avellino in doubt.
Overnight someone broke into the stadium and purposefully damaged the pitch.
Sections were dug up, while they even cut through some of the goalposts.
There were also signs and graffiti insulting the club, noting this was specifically targeted at ensuring the game did not go ahead.
The local authorities are urgently trying to fix the situation in order to play the game, which is due to kick off at 14.00 UK time (13.00 GMT).
