Melbourne Victory along with the A-Leagues can confirm our Isuzu UTE A-League Men’s clash with Brisbane Roar at AAMI Park on Sunday 2 January has been postponed due to positive COVID cases within the Brisbane Roar men’s team.
The Brisbane Roar men’s football department confirmed positive COVID-19 cases via PCR testing on 28 December, with all players, coaches and staff now in isolation and awaiting further results, while following the Queensland Health directives.
The A-Leagues protocols continue to be effective for screening and subsequent PCR testing in detecting the virus and ensuring immediate isolation.
The primary concern is for the health, wellbeing and safety of all players, staff and their families. All positive cases and those close to them are adhering to relevant state government health directives, in close consultation with the A-Leagues.
The A-Leagues will continue to work with the clubs on confirming a new schedule for the postponed match as soon as possible.
