Sturm Darragh forces Everton and Liverpool for the derby shift!

Goodison Park, Liverpool, England - The highly expected Merseyside derby between Everton FC and Liverpool FC, which was to take place on Saturday afternoon, was canceled shortly before the kick-off due to the storm "Darragh". Both clubs announced this decision in a joint message after they had advised themselves with the local police and the city council of Liverpool. The message said that strong gusts of wind endanger security in the region and a weather warning applies until 6 a.m. until Sunday morning, which made the cancellation essential. Everton regretted the decision on his platform and emphasized that the security of all the top priority was.
