Ligue 1 cancellation disappointing but important - Majeed Waris

Strasbourg striker Abdul Majeed Waris has expressed his disappointment at the cancellation of Ligue 1 but added that it was the right thing to do.

The competition was officially cancelled on Tuesday due to the outbreak of the coronavirus and they will now look forward to the following season.

In an interview with Adom TV, the Ghanaian revealed how he felt about the decision.

“It is very disappointing to be honest [that they cancelled the league] because it has been decided that we will not continue the season but if you look at the other aspects, I believe that it is an important thing [that they did it] because if you look at what has happened abroad, people are losing their loved ones and families so it has destroyed everything. If you look at the safety side, I think it is the right thing.”
