The Republic of Ireland's Euro 2020 qualifier against Switzerland is in doubt as a pitch inspection is due to be carried out at the Stade Geneve.
There were reports from Geneva of heavy rainfall in the lead up to kick-off and pictures from the ground show surface water on the pitch
There will be a pitch inspection at the Stade Geneve shortly. If the pitch is deemed unplayable the match may be played tomorrow according to Uefa 2020 regulations. @RTEsoccer @FAIreland #SUIIRL
