Major League Soccer (MLS) was forced to postpone Sunday morning’s match between Toronto FC and D.C. United amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The league said in a statement that “results of yesterday’s tests for D.C. United and Toronto FC produced an initial unconfirmed positive COVID-19 case for one player and an inconclusive test for another player.”

“Major League Soccer announced that today’s D.C. United vs. Toronto FC match has been postponed and will be rescheduled. MLS will announce details later today for the rescheduled match,” the league’s statement said.
