Players from both AIK and Tellus were present at Gubbängshallen ahead of today’s game when word came that it would be postponed.
The reason is two confirmed cases of covid-19 in Tellus, what bandypuls Be the first to report.
“We had met before the game and then we received an SMS from a player that the test result had arrived,” says Jonas Lindqvist.
In addition to the two confirmed cases, Tellus has additional infected players who are feared to be infected.
Jonas Lindqvist thinks it’s very sad that it’s happening right now.
“Sad: the highlight of the year”
– It’s boring. This is the highlight of the year. Now it’s like with a crown, but it’s still a derby and a bit of glamor on matchday two. He would have liked to have experienced that. But health comes first.
Immediately when the news of the positive tests of the Tellus players broke, the opposing team AIK became fully involved in canceling and postponing the match.
– It is clear that it is a pity that it happens so close to the game. But we are happy to find a new date together with Tellus, with whom we have an excellent collaboration, AIK sports director Jonas Galotta tells SVT Sport.
Review: He wants to extend the season
However, he criticizes the association’s lack of interest in AIK’s proposal for an extended season.
– We have tried to push the issue of this season’s extension and I don’t think the Swedish Bandy Association and our league have received it particularly well.
A new match date will be set shortly.
