Alarm in Serie A for the 14 members of Genoa who tested positive for coronavirus. While the Maran players and the entire rossoblu squad await the result of the second round of pads, the fans no longer question themselves. What will happen now in the game on Saturday, October 3, in Marassi, against Turin? And the big game on Sunday, October 4, between Juve and Napoli? And what will happen in the future in Serie A, if similar cases are repeated?
Protocol
If in Europe the UEFA protocol establishes that the match can be played if there are at least 13 negative players and therefore available, in Italy there is no fixed rule, as in France where 4 positives are enough to postpone the match. Therefore, at the moment, in the absence of specific legislation, Genoa and Turin, in theory, should play regularly. Unless the Serie A League decides otherwise in the next few days. The match in that case would move to midweek into a week that includes cup matches. If this happens, Torino could appeal and ask to play anyway on Saturday. Therefore, it is clear that the matter must be quickly regulated by national legislation.
Naples case
After the officialization of the 14 positive cases of Genoa, swabs were made among the Napoli players of Rino Gattuso, the last rival of the Grifoni, who fear a generalized contagion. And on Sunday night Juventus-Napoli is scheduled. It should be remembered that Rolando Maran, the Ligurian coach, had already had to give up both Perin and Schone at the last minute, both positive for the swab on Saturday 26 September. it was President Enrico Preziosi who reported directly to his colleague Aurelio De Laurentiis. It should be noted that until Friday when new swabs will be made 48 hours after the game, you can be sure of the positivity of the Neapolitan players, since 5 days will have passed since the meeting with Genoa and from the moment of the possible contagion.
Incubation period
For Italian football, the week begins with anxiety: we ask ourselves once again about the protocols and regulations in the matter of health. In addition to the new regulations of the technical-scientific committee that recently foresees a change in protocol regarding tampons: if there are no reasons for alarm, they will be carried out only 48 hours before the competitions and no more every 4 days. But with the virus having an incubation time of between 2 and 5 days, it is clear that it is possible to have players formally negative in the swabs, but in fact positive when going out on the field.
