Xavi angry at La Liga: 8 players infected, but no delays

Barcelona head coach Xavi expressed great dissatisfaction with the leaders of La Liga because of the refusal to postpone today’s game against Mallorca.

The duel between the two teams is scheduled for 9 pm tonight.

Barcelona was hit by numerous injuries, but also by coronavirus infection, so even eight football players had a positive test.

“This is insane, this is an extreme situation,” Xavi said.

However, he did not find understanding in the league, nor in his colleague from the bench of Mallorca, Luis Garcia.

Barcelona has a problem because the players have to play from their bench. Come on, all these players would be first-teamers anywhere else “, Garcia explained.

The rules of La Liga are clear – if the team has 13 players and in addition seven members of the A-team, the team must play.

That is why the Barcelona coach will introduce two players for the first time, Estanis and Lucas de Vega.
