While the 5th day of Serie A was to conclude with a mouth-watering match between Atalanta and Como Calcio on the pitch of the Gewiss Stadium, the match was to be postponed to a later date according to information from the Italian press. It is pouring with rain in Bergamo and there was a strong risk of the match being postponed. Several inspections are underway with the captains, Marten De Roon and Patrick Cutrone, as well as the referee Paride Tremolada to understand if the ball bounces on the pitch.
The first attempt was unsuccessful: the ball was not rolling on the soaked field and the rain was still falling heavily. The second check gave a positive result, the ball was bouncing again and the kick-off was set for 9:45 p.m. The match was in serious danger of being postponed due to the rain caused by the deluge that hit Bergamo, with the pitch at the Gewiss stadium completely flooded with water.
