MILAN (Reuters) - The Coppa Italia semi-final second-leg match between Juventus and AC Milan in Turin on Wednesday has been postponed indefinitely because of concerns about the coronavirus outbreak, the city government said on Tuesday.

Sports events have been banned in three regions of Italy -- Lombardy, Veneto and Emilia Romagna -- plus two provinces although top-flight soccer matches can go ahead behind closed doors, an option which the Serie A league has preferred not to use.
