Tebas reacts to Ancelotti and Real Madrid
Real Madrid Furious with La Liga’s Scheduling Decision
Following their victory at Villarreal, Real Madrid has expressed frustration with La Liga’s decision to schedule their match on Saturday, less than 72 hours after their intense Champions League clash against Atletico Madrid. Head coach Carlo Ancelotti has been vocal about the issue, even threatening to withdraw his squad from similar fixtures in the future.
La Liga’s Response to Real Madrid’s Requests
Ancelotti claimed that Real Madrid had requested to move the match to allow for more rest time for the players, but La Liga denied these allegations. The league’s president, Javier Tebas, has now addressed the situation, revealing that Real Madrid had rescheduled their upcoming La Liga fixture against Leganes to secure extra rest for their international players.

Javier Tebas’ Response
Tebas clarified the situation, stating that Real Madrid had requested the rescheduling of their match against Leganes to benefit their international players. However, this decision has now led to a tight schedule for the team, playing less than 72 hours later in the Copa del Rey semi-final against Real Sociedad.
Tebas’ Reaction to Real Madrid’s Complaints
This is not the first time Tebas has responded to complaints from Real Madrid and Ancelotti. He stands firm in his decisions and does not shy away from addressing the concerns raised by the club. With the international break approaching, all parties involved will need to move forward from this issue.
