«

Is someone going to take care of the health of the players?

Or are we going to continue as if nothing was happening? ».

The questions are from

Álex Abrines

,

Barcelona

guard

.

He made them on Twitter last Sunday afternoon while the Euroleague was still experiencing a situation of certain control.

Now, in the middle of the week and after the latest news, the Barça player's reflection will surely be much harder.

A thought that will also be shared by

Cristiano Ronaldo

, the last great star in the world of football to

test positive for coronavirus

during the stoppage of the domestic leagues to dispute the commitments of the national teams.

For example, the

players of the Spanish team who faced him

and who now undergo new PCR controls to ensure negatives

will think

so.

And it will also be reflected by those who live under control during national competitions and cross half the world in a qualification for the Qatar World Cup that does not stop, or cannot be stopped, despite the pandemic.

Some questions that Abrines teammates and rivals will also ask themselves in the Euroleague.

Nikola Mirotic will

imagine it

, the player infected at Barcelona after playing last Friday against

Zenit

, who now accumulates

19 positives

between staff and coaching staff and has had to cancel his

trip to Vitoria and Valencia

, to the peace of mind of the Spanish authorities.

The Disciplinary Judge of the competition will have to decide the sanction, but according to what was voted by the clubs before the start of the season, the Russians

will lose both games 20-0

.

Like Zenit, there is

Khimi, who will travel to Madrid and Vitoria despite his five infected

, and

Tony Parker's Asvel,

who faces his first

automatic defeat

by not being able to present eight healthy players before their match against

Panathinaikos

, which has finally been canceled.

He adds more than a dozen infections and has tried to complete the rotation with homegrown players before desperately asking "to be

able to isolate the squad

."

The Euroleague, meanwhile, does not stop at a very

tight schedule

with the Games as the limit.

"

Infection is penalized

", criticized KC Rivers, from Zenit.

Abrines's questions will also resonate at this time in the heads of some of the

Giro d'Italia

riders

.

The Italian round continues despite the abandonment of two of its most powerful teams,

Jumbo and Mitchelton

, by the positives of

Kruijswijk

and

Simon Yates

(last week), favorites to achieve the pink jersey.

The two teams could continue in the peloton as they did not reach the two positives in their squad of riders, a limit set by the Giro and the UCI, but they

have decided to leave

.

The last positive, that of the number one in golf,

Dustin Johnson

.

Not competing for the general will also have helped that decision, "

It is the best solution for the health of the rest of the teams,

" they argue.
