Coronavirus is spreading all around the globe, and governments are taking measures to contain it. The suspension of mass events also includes sport and soccer matches. Therefore, we prepared a list of most prominent leagues and their current status.
The leagues are mostly suspended, or matches are played behind closed doors now. We will see if the season will be finished or canceled at all. Everything depends on the situation in the coming days and months.
