He The match between the University of Chile and Iquique was suspended after the northern team reported the detection of some positive cases of covid-19 in the professional team. The same happened with the meeting between La Calera and O’Higgins for a case in the ‘cement plants’.
Through a statement, the ‘Celestial Dragons’ affirmed that “the first team underwent the usual sample of PCR tests, as required by the protocol before each match, obtaining from these shots two players with positive results, who were immediately isolated at home ”.
They added that “As a preventive measure it was decided to take an antigen test to all the rest of the professional staff, detecting an additional positive sample.”
The match was originally scheduled for 10:30 am this Sunday at the National Stadium, although now it must be rescheduled, as reported by the ANFP.
“The ANFP Medical Commission recommended suspending the matches between Universidad de Chile – Iquique and Unión La Calera – O’Higgins of the #CampeonatoPlanVital, due to positive cases of COVID-19 in Iquique and La Calera”, they assured from the ANFP.
