In the Round of 32 of the Coppa Italia, Verona were hosting Venezia on their home ground, but the match will not be completed on schedule.
Details: At the start of the second half, the referee decided to suspend play due to a heavy downpour.
Before the match, videos and photos from the city itself were shared, showing a severe thunderstorm with strong winds and hail.
Reminder: Antonio Rapuano, who officiated the Verona–Juventus match, was demoted to Serie B until the end of the season by the Italian Referees Association (AIA), and it appears he may remain there for some time.
