A special year for saying the least, and a special celebration for saying the least. In front of the empty stands, Malmö FF crushed Sirius and, of course, the joy was great.
But after the victory interviews and a victory dance in the locker room, the news came that meant an abrupt end to the party.
Anders Christiansen has tested positive for covid-19, writes MFF on its website. The golden dinner is thus canceled. The membership meeting scheduled for November 12 will also have a new date.
– Anders didn’t feel anything before the game. He put in a lot of effort on the field, celebrated afterward and conducted interviews, but when his adrenaline subsided he felt listless and his stomach ached. When the other players left by bus, Anders stayed with our team doctor and had a quick test that came back positive, says the sporting director in a comment on the club’s website.
Also, write:
“As a safety measure, activities for the Malmö FF men’s team and staff are stopped for a week and everyone is sent home with rules of conduct in accordance with the Public Health Agency and Smittskydd Skåne. Malmö FF employees who worked during today’s event will be working from home in the next time. “
MFF also writes that all the players were tested the day before the match and that all the test results were negative. Christiansen’s positive response will now be confirmed by a so-called PCR test, which is used in healthcare, shortly.
The team’s coach, Jon Dahl Tomasson, has also previously been infected with the virus. He did not participate in today’s game against Sirius.
Niclas Carlnén tells Fotbollskanalen that no further tests have been done on the players overnight, but that they should be done on those with symptoms.
– Players and leaders will be at home for a while. If they show symptoms during that period, we do the test, says Carlnén.
Are you worried that it will spread on your team?
– AC was not on the bus and hopefully no one got infected there. But it was because of the news that we made a quick decision to cancel.
Were there more players who felt bad afterwards?
– No he was not.
