Why Christian Pulisic's Serie A Debut Was Delayed

Bologna vs. AC Milan, a highly anticipated Serie A match, was postponed due to bad weather. The Italian region of Emilia Romagna recently experienced severe flooding, leading authorities to reschedule the game. As a result, USMNT star Christian Pulisic won't be playing this weekend. AC Milan's president, Paolo Scaroni, announced the decision after a Friday meeting, where they discussed alternatives like changing venues but ultimately decided to reschedule. Both teams have busy schedules due to their involvement in the Champions League and Coppa Italia.

AC Milan will next face Napoli on Tuesday at San Siro, but they'll be missing key players Theo Hernandez and Tijjani Reijnders, who were set to miss the Bologna game. Bologna's mayor, Matteo Lepore, closed the Renato Dall'Ara stadium on Thursday because of the weather and the city's challenging situation. The mayor stated, "The heavy rains and upcoming weather forecasts don't indicate a quick return to normal, especially with the weather alert. "
