England Women have had to AXE their away fixture against Germany on Tuesday, due to a positive Covid-19 test from a member of the Lionesses' backroom staff.
The squad pulled out of the match amid concerns for the safety and welfare of the players and staff.
The current coronavirus protocol by the German government requires that any individual who tests positive whilst in the country must self-isolate for 14 days.
The FA ultimately did not want to risk that this may happen to a player or member of the England staff.
England boss Phil Neville said: “While we all wanted to play Tuesday’s game, this was absolutely the right course of action.
"I thank Germany’s staff for their understanding and our FA colleagues for their support.
“I know the fans were hoping to see us play again but I am sure they will understand the decision.
"We have still had a good week of training and are looking forward to getting together next month before our match against Norway in Sheffield.”
The remainder of England Women’s October camp at St. George’s Park has been cancelled and the players are set to return to their clubs today.
The FA’s chief executive Mark Bullingham added: “This has been a difficult but necessary decision.
