A high-speed storm, Storm Darragh, has caused a postponement of the highly anticipated Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool. The Premier League match was scheduled for Saturday but was called off due to strong winds and heavy rain. Other Premier League games went ahead as planned.
Storm Darragh brought severe weather conditions, including wind gusts over 90 mph in parts of Wales. The storm’s impact on the west coast led to a safety advisory group decision to postpone the match. Both Everton and Liverpool clubs issued statements confirming the postponement due to safety concerns.
The Premier League has not announced a new date for the fixture but will rearrange it at a later time. Other games in the league, including Manchester United’s match against Nottingham Forest, went ahead without issues. Brentford and Crystal Palace are also set to play their scheduled matches despite the bad weather.
