Spain has been hit hard by terrible floods which have left several hundred dead (211 at the time of the latest report). Despite the disaster, La Liga and its president decided to maintain this weekend’s matches, a heresy for Diego Simeone, the coach of Atlético de Madrid. “It makes no sense (for La Liga matches to be maintained). What is happening is very difficult”declared the Argentinian in a pre-match press conference against Las Palmas.
“There are a lot of people who are going through a really bad time. It’s very sad for everyone. We are in an environment where we are told to follow, so here we are, we follow”specified el Cholo, in deep disagreement with the choice to maintain the meetings, before continuing on a more positive note. “It’s exciting to see all the people who came out into the streets to help, with a shovel or whatever they had. It speaks well of the country, of the Spanish people.”.
