A statement from league chiefs confirmed: “Atalanta vs Como has been delayed due to adverse weather conditions. Another pitch inspection will be carried out shortly.”
The players from both clubs had gone out onto the pitch to warm-up.
But conditions were described as “water polo” by one fan watching on.
The referee carried out an inspection of the pitch by rolling the ball on the surface.
And fans watched on as the ball struggled to move, getting stuck on the waterlogged grass.
