Match Stockport – Wigan Stopped Due to Downpour: The Field Turned Into a Swamp.

VERTU Trophy match between Stockport County and Wigan Athletic suspended

The VERTU Trophy match between Stockport County and Wigan Athletic was suspended due to heavy rain. Both teams from League One were tied at 1-1 when heavy downpours began at Edgeley Park stadium in Stockport. With each passing minute, it became increasingly clear that the state of the pitch did not allow the game to continue.

“The match was in a draw, but the weather made its adjustments,” witnesses said.

The match was played in a tense atmosphere, and the stoppage due to weather conditions left fans waiting for the resumption of the game. When exactly the teams will return to the field is not yet reported. This is already the second case in the last few weeks where weather has disrupted matches in various leagues.
