• Resolution: The judge decides that the League be played on Fridays, but not on Mondays

Javier Tebas, president of LaLiga, has valued this Saturday in Huesca the resolution issued yesterday by the head of the number two Commercial Court of Madrid, Andrés Sánchez Magro, who decided that matches can be played on Fridays, but not on Mondays.

In statements to the media, Thebes has stressed that LaLiga sees "the glass half full", although "we lack the other half." "We have managed to play on Fridays, which is the goal we have and what our TV agreements in Spain and the world say. Fans also want to watch football on Mondays," he said.

He added that the car "has some inconsistencies and we will appeal, we will play on Mondays too. The car will leave us that possibility later and so we have agreed with the television operators. We have to comply."

"Optimistic for the future"

On the alleged "victory" of the Federation in the conflict, Thebes recalled that the same thing happened with women's football or futsal in which he "spoke of victory." He added that in the Federation "they are specialists in making the lie true." "There they are. For now we have football on Fridays, which the Federation did not want," the executive said.

Thebes has convened for this Monday an extraordinary assembly of clubs to "assess the situation." "I will tell you that we can play on Fridays and how have the conversations with national and international TV operators that we will have this weekend to configure the theme of the schedules. I am optimistic about the future."

"I do not see an employer strike"

The president of LaLiga "does not see" a possible employer strike by park of some clubs. According to Thebes, "some clubs are quite angry with the position of the Federation, but I do not see a strike. The car has already left us a good chance and we will work for Mondays but I think we can get the topic right."

Tebas, oscense de pro, participated this Saturday in the solemn procession in honor of San Lorenzo, beginning of the festivities of Huesca, dressed in the traditional costume, the green scarf around his neck and the basil bouquet.
