Soccer-International Champions Cup cancelled

This year’s International Champions Cup (ICC) exhibition has been cancelled due to the coronavirus, the marketing company that owns and operates the competition announced on Friday.

“The lack of clarity of when social distancing and shelter-in-place restrictions will be lifted and the uncertain international football calendar” made the staging of the tournament “unfeasible”, Relevent Sports chief executive Daniel Sillman said in a statement.

Many of Europe’s currently-suspended domestic leagues, as well as the European Champions League, hope eventually to complete their seasons this year.
