The match scheduled for Saturday, September 9, between Puerto Rico FC and the New York Cosmos at Juan Ramón Loubriel Stadium has been postponed due to Hurricane Irma's impending arrival in the Caribbean.

The contest, which was set to kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET this Saturday, will be rescheduled, and the make-up date will be announced at a later time. In the interest of the safety of the players, staff, fans, and the island as a whole, the NASL, along with Puerto Rico FC and the Cosmos, made the decision to postpone the match.

“Everyone’s focus right now should be on their families and protecting their homes,” Puerto Rico FC President Tom Payne said. “Our priority is the safety of our fans, our players, the front office staff, as well as the visiting team. We are working alongside our players and the NASL to ensure their safety, and we will have more information as soon as possible.”

More updates will be provided in the coming days.
