A significant update in the world of sports!
Yes, you're correct. Due to the growing concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic, Major League Soccer (MLS) has suspended its season for 30 days, effective immediately. This decision was made in consultation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the U.S. Department of State, and other public health authorities.
Additionally, the United States Men's National Team (USMNT) and the United States Women's National Team (USWNT) have canceled their upcoming friendly matches. The USMNT was set to play against Wales on March 27 and against Panama on March 30, while the USWNT was scheduled to play against Australia on April 10.
The suspension of the MLS season and the cancellation of the friendly matches are a precautionary measure to help prevent the spread of the virus. The decision is in line with the recommendations of public health authorities and is intended to prioritize the health and safety of players, staff, and fans.
It's a challenging time for the sports world, but these measures are necessary to ensure the well-being of everyone involved.
