Javier Tebas, the president of LaLiga, had a message for Carlo Ancelotti. Ancelotti complained about the lack of rest between games.
Tebas said: “I have a problem with 72 hours. We knew what was happening with Thursday and Sunday. There are five substitutions to refresh the teams. Who complains is who makes substitutions at 85 minutes… how will they rotate players? What are they complaining about? How many Real Madrid players played 85 or 65 percent of the minutes? It can’t all be the same person’s fault.”
Tebas also talked about the cost of watching football on TV in Spain. He said: “Ferraris are also expensive and you can’t steal them. I don’t think it’s expensive. Operators offer their service and sell everything, but football is just 25 or 30 euros. For 80 euros, you get more things, like internet and mobile. It’s different in each country. It’s not expensive, for 80 euros they give you all that.”
