The OFC Pro League match between Extra Supermarket Bula FC and South Island United was postponed due to adverse weather conditions that made the playing surface at North Harbour Stadium unfit for play. Following a pitch inspection conducted by match officials earlier today, it was determined that the field was unplayable, prompting the decision to call off the fixture to prioritize player safety.
Organizers have confirmed that the match will be rescheduled for a later date during the competition. In the meantime, the second match of the day at North Harbour Stadium, which features Auckland FC facing Vanuatu United FC, remains on schedule. That match is set to kick off at 6 PM and will be broadcast live on FBC 2.
This postponement highlights the importance of player safety and the impact of weather conditions on sports events. Fans can look forward to rescheduled matches that promise exciting gameplay once the conditions improve.
