The damallsvenska meeting between Umeå and Kristianstad would have been played yesterday starting at 15.45.

The players had time to warm up before the news came that the match was postponed due to the heavy snowfall in Umeå.

- It has snowed a lot.

We could run the warm-up, but when we were to go out a quarter of an hour later, the pitch was completely white.

It was not possible to run a match, it was completely impossible, Umeå's Lisa Dahlkvist told SVT yesterday.

Now it is clear that the match will be played today at 15.00 instead, Umeå writes on its website.

Umeå is second to last in the Damallsvenska table and is in need of points to avoid relegation.
