JAKARTA - Quarantined in Turin, Italian Serie A club Torino cannot travel to Rome for Tuesday's match against Lazio in the Italian capital. However, Serie A organizers refused to suspend the match.
The Turin regional government has decided Torino be quarantined after eight of their players tested positive for exposure to the new British variant of Covid-19.

This situation is similar to the previous incident when Napoli was swept away by the wave of COVID-19 in October last year and was unable to undergo an away match against Juventus.
The Italian League did not want to cancel the match schedule and rewarded Juventus with a 3-0 victory, even though the Italian Olympic Committee later canceled the decision.
The matches of Juventus and Sassuolo were postponed a week ago for the very same reason. The head of the Italian football federation (FIGC) Gabriele Gravina called on the league authorities to clarify their stance.
"This is the power of God, there is no way they (Torino) can play and the league must be firm", Gravina said as quoted by Antara from AFP.
"Imagine if a team decides to go ahead and violates the quarantine rules, it will violate the law".
