A Ukrainian soccer team has found 25 cases of the coronavirus among players and staff. The Ukrainian soccer association says the cases at Karpaty Lviv came from tests on 65 people. None of the players or staff members have been named.

The Ukrainian league restarted last week without Karpaty. The team's first game was canceled because of suspected virus cases and the league has now postponed two more matches. The league's planned end date in mid-July is now in doubt.

Karpaty says everyone who tested positive is in isolation and that training has been canceled for a two-week quarantine period. Karpaty player Egor Nazarina told Ukrainian TV channel Futbol that he didn't believe anyone at the club had displayed symptoms of COVID-19. AP BS BS
