Depotivo-Betis postponed

Tonight's La Liga encounter between Deportivo La Coruna and Real Betis has been postponed following adverse weather in Galicia.

According to numerous media sources in Seville, authorities have called off the match after strong winds during the course of the week caused damage to a part of Depor's Estadio Riazor.

A part of the roof of one of the stands has been dislodged, with scraps of debris covering part of the pitch and surrounding areas outside the stadium.

It was initially thought that fans due to be sitting around the affected area could be relocated, but with more rain and winds surpassing 100kmph forecast for later today, the decision has been taken to reschedule the game for a later date.
