Officially ... the approval of the Aston Villa and Liverpool match, despite Corona

England football authorities agreed to hold the match between Aston Villa and Liverpool in the third round of the FA Cup on Friday, despite the appearance of Corona virus infections in Villa's ranks.

Aston Villa closed its training headquarters and canceled its training session, which was scheduled for Thursday, after cases of infection with the rapidly spreading virus appeared among the team's players and members of its technical staff.

British media said that Aston Villa was preparing to join a squad of young players after the first team entered health isolation.

Aston Villa U-23 coach Mark Delaney is set to lead the team in the confrontation with Liverpool in the absence of first-team coach Dean Smith and his supporting staff.
