Hansi Flick’s wish has been met with no response from La Liga to reschedule their match against Real Valladolid to give Barcelona more time to rest before their trip to Inter Milan.
La Liga have failed to accommodate Barcelona’s demand to reschedule their away game at Real Valladolid in the Liga on Saturday, May 3, ahead of the Blaugrana’s Champions League semi-final second leg at Inter Milan on Tuesday, May 6.
After Hansi Flick complained เว็บพนันออนไลน์ UFABET สมัครง่าย โปรโมชั่นมากมาย about La Liga’s fixtures not being beneficial to Spanish clubs playing in European football, Barcelona have submitted a request to La Liga to change the time of their away game at Real Valladolid from 9pm (local time) on Saturday, May 3 to 2pm, 4.15pm or 6.30pm to give Barca players more time to rest before their trip to Inter Milan in the Champions League.
Sporting director Deco has voice his annoyance at the date ad kick of time against rock bottom Valladolid being move to 9pm Spanish time, the same as the two Inter Milan games.
“Sometimes they listen to us and other times they don’t. In the Champions League, we’ve been weak when it comes to protecting ourselves with schedules,”
“The manager has talked about it for a while. We don’t have the power to make decisions. We’re understand why the match against Valladolid was schedule for Sunday, and move to Saturday; but it could have been play at 4pm or 6:30pm.
“We would have liked to play earlier. We asked to play at 6:30, but La Liga made a different decision.”
However, La Liga has no plans to change the timing of Real Valladolid’s game against Barcelona at the request of the Blaugrana, unlike Ligue 1, which has adjusted its schedule to give Paris Saint-Germain time to prepare for their European clash with Arsenal.
