1 day agoOviedo and Espanyol players stand still in protest
The Spanish Footballers' Association (AFE) said in a statement they had coordinated with the captains of each La Liga club to "protest symbolically" against the league's "lack of transparency, dialogue and coherence". La Liga refuted the accusations, external earlier this week, stating a "willingness to meet" with the AFE to "foster useful dialogue that allows explaining the project". The protest by Oviedo and Espanyol players was not shown on live television as cameras cut away to the exterior of the stadium. The AFE's statement added that replica demonstrations will follow at the remaining La Liga games this weekend.
