The Alavés has been upset that the Lightning has denied him tickets for his fans
The Vitorian club has "emphatically" rejected the thesis of the Madrid club and, in particular, the assertion that at all times there has been a great deal of readiness and cooperation to facilitate the presence of Albiazul fans in tonight's match.
The Alavés, in an official statement, has denied the version offered by the Rayo Vallecano regarding the sale of tickets for the match in Butarque (21:00), at the Leganés stadium.
In view of the discomfort of the Vitorian team, the Lightning stated in another statement that "exceptional circumstances" have prevented access to tickets and stressed that it has had "a great deal of readiness and support to facilitate the presence of Alavese fans", but that it has not been possible due to security protocols.
In another statement, the Alavés "roundly" rejects the thesis of the Madrid club and, in particular, the fact that at all times there has been a great deal of readiness and cooperation to facilitate the presence of the Albiazul hobby.
The Basque club has explained that "despite the insistence of the Deportivo Alavés and the efforts made in previous days, the Rayo Vallecano has delayed the response as much as possible and finally, on Wednesday morning, it expressly indicated to the Deportivo Alavés that there would be no availability for fans from outside, so the Albiazul fans would not be able to come to encourage the team."
In protest at the lack of entry, the Board of Directors of the Alavés will not go to the box of Butarque. Let us remember that Rayo Vallecano is against the government of the Community of Madrid, which has cautiously withdrawn the transfer of the Vallecas Stadium to the club.
The source of the conflict is a disagreement about the responsibility for the deterioration of the stadium and who should be responsible for its restoration, so Rayo Vallecano has to play home games away from its usual stadium.
