LaLiga will harden the protocol: either there are 13 'healthy' players or defeat 3-0

LaLiga will start next Friday, September 11 and wants to finish on date, in mid-May 2021. To do this, the employers are working to toughen the protocol to prevent coronavirus infections. 69 pages, which will be expanded, in which the use of changing rooms is limited or showers are prohibited among many other measures. They also send recommendations such as not taking children to nursery schools when it is not mandatory to avoid infections in a return to school that also worries Spanish football.

Now, from the organization led by Javier Tebas they are looking for new measures for this protocol and the last one directly affects the competition. According to the newspaper El Mundo, LaLiga and the clubs are working on a new rule that requires the presentation of at least thirteen available players to the matches. If there is an outbreak in the team that does not allow this minimum number of players to be presented, LaLiga would only allow one game to be postponed throughout the competition. If, on more occasions, this team failed to collect the thirteen necessary chips, the match would be lost 3-0.

As this newspaper explains, the norm offers certain facilities to be complied with. That minimum of thirteen players that must be presented to each game will come from a list of up to 35 players that each team will be able to register in the competition between the first team and the subsidiary. In addition, of those thirteen that he has to carry, only five are required to have a first-team record, thus being able to play a league match with more players from the subsidiary than from the first team.

This newspaper notes that this measure comes as a serious warning to footballers not to repeat scenes such as certain meetings that took place at the end of 19/20 and They ended up in positive cases for coronavirus that put the viability of the competition at risk.
