‘Finalissima’ game suspended due to attack on IranReutersThe “Finalissima” match between Spain and Argentina in Doha is in doubt after the Qatar Football Association suspended soccer tournaments indefinitely following US and Israeli attacks on Iran and retaliatory strikes across the Arabian Peninsula. “Qatar Football Association announces the postponement of all tournaments, competitions and matches, effective from today and until further notice,” the association said in a statement on Sunday. The Bahrain Football Association postponed all its matches until further notice while the Asian Football Confederation on Sunday announced it was delaying Champions League Elite fixtures in the region. The Asian Champions League Two, currently at the quarter-final stage, has been impacted, along with games in the Challenge League. Countries across the Middle East have been on high alert since Saturday when the US and Israel launched strikes against Iran, aimed at diminishing Iran’s military capability and killing the nation’s leadership.
