The Celta-Osasuna match of the first day of the EA SportsLeague, which was to be played in Balaidos, will be played nextSunday at 9:30 p.m. onThursday 27 August at 8:30 p.m.
The Galician team asked LaLiga to postpone the match because they saw a fungus spoil the grass. The Liga technicians went to Vigo and after seeing that there was no guarantee that the match would be played on the lawn, they agreed to postpone the match.
The Celtic regretted that this decision could cause " inconvenience " to all the fans who organised the day of support for the team at this start ofthe competition and appreciated "their understanding of this extraordinary situation".
Health, totally at odds.
After the said postponement became official, the red entity issued a statement in which it expressed its "dissatisfaction with LaLiga and the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) for the change of dates that undermines the interests of the red club and does not consider a prior agreement between the clubs."
"Osasuna wishes to express his complete disagreement withthe new date set for the Celta-Osasuna match, scheduled for 16 August. Due to the poor state of the field due to the presence of a fungus, it is not possible to play on the date indicated at the beginning of the match, despite the efforts made by the local team. Osasuna understands this situation, "said the Pamplonese club.
He added that "the logic of the situation, in which Osasuna and his fans are most affected, involves seeking a new field for the match or indicating a new date on which both institutions agree. "
"Both Celtic and Osasuna agreed that on 24 or 25September, coinciding with the selection stop, they could be the right dates not to overload the calendar of both teams, "he said.
The Navarre club said LaLiga and the RFEF knew there was an agreement between the clubs.
"However, neither LaLiga nor the RFEF have been sympathetic to the request made and have decided on their own initiative to play the game on Thursday 27 August, so Osasuna is obliged to play one match on Monday 24 August and another on Thursday 27August, including the round trip, "added Osasuna.
