Liverpool could miss out on the Premier League title due to CORONAVIRUS

Liverpool are currently 22 points clear in the Premier League, however, they could yet miss out on the title if coronavirus cuts short the season. Jurgen Klopp’s side have ‘no guarantee’ that they would still be crowned champions should the season end before the time due to the scale of the virus outbreak, according to the Telegraph. The report suggests, that 'no specific regulation' is in place should such a scenario play out that all 38 top-flight games are incomplete and it could see all three teams in the relegation zone reprieved. There are 11 matches remaining in the Premier League season. Coronavirus is spreading quickly across Europe and it has increased fears that the UK government could 'opt to cancel sporting events for two months'. “For pre-season, we haven’t thought about changing anything cause of Coronavirus. It is all dictated by medical staff. We take out serious but we cannot avoid anything. It is not a football problem, a social problem. Hopefully, the smarter people find the way,” in his latest press conference said Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp. “We cannot do anything different, we take it seriously but we haven’t told anyone not to shake hands. We cannot do more than we are here. We haven’t been told we cannot play so we will. We take it seriously but we don’t go crazy with it.”  Source: Daily Mail Join us on Telegram!
