The RFEF confirms that there will be no friendlies and will 'watch' the Playoffs

The Federation and the Association of Spanish Soccer Players have met again this Friday telematically to analyze the situation of Spanish soccer in this coronavirus crisis. Without the presence of Luis Rubiales and David Aganzo, as is usual in these health summits, which Andreu Camps and Dr. Helena Herrero for the RFEF and Diego Rivas and Geni Fernández for the union usually attend, both institutions have again reviewed the protocols carried out since the pandemic started and have agreed on several strategies for the short-term future: one of them is that there will be no friendlies, neither in professional nor in professional football, As AS announced days ago after consulting LaLiga sources. The other, that the Federation will be responsible for monitoring that all the teams that play the Playoffs comply with the health protocol.

As for the possibility of dispute bowling Before restarting the competition, the Federation has been blunt: He will not send collegiates anywhere until the official matches begin. The RFEF does not want any risks to be taken once the most complicated things have been achieved, that football returns and that the results of those infected within the world of football are minimal. The fact that the Premier will allow the friendly match in this first quinceanera in June, raised all the alarms that this idea could be sequenced in Spain. The RFEF, like LaLiga, have already positioned themselves forcefully in this regard.

As for the health protocol, the Federation will do the same thing that LaLiga is doing in professional soccer. Monitor the controls made to the templates (there will be two tests, those that have been done now and those that will be done before competing), as well as compliance with the regulations approved in the different Playoffs in which 16 teams from the Second B, 72 from the Third, 8 from futsal and 8 from the First National Women's Championship will compete.
