Major League Soccer has suspended match play for 30 days, effective immediately, as the league continues to assess the impact of COVID-19 with its medical task force and public health officials.

“The safety of our players, staff and fans is our primary concern," said Toronto FC President Bill Manning. "We completely support the league's decision."

At the appropriate time, the league and clubs will communicate plans for the continuation of the 2020 season and update the status of league events.
