(Reuters) - Everton's Women's Super League game at home to Manchester United on Sunday has been postponed because of COVID-19 cases at the Merseyside club, both teams said on Friday.

Everton said that five players had tested positive for the novel coronavirus during the winter break and weren't deemed fit to play Sunday's 1200 GMT game at Walton Hall Park despite being back in training.
