The Sierra Leone Football Association has suspended all football matches in the country until further notice because of the Ebola outbreak.
It follows President Ernest Bai Koroma's declaration of a public health emergency to curb the deadly virus.
The state of public emergency is expected to last up to 60-90 days.
As a result Sierra Leone may not be able to play their 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at home to Cameroon next month.
Preparations for their opening Group D match away to Ivory Coast will also be affected.
It also means a delay to the second round of the Sierra Leone Premier League.
