Madrid was finally able to take off for Pamplona at 10:50 p.m. on Friday, although it had planned to do so at seven. More than three hours trapped in the plane on the Barajas runways. The anger of the players, coaching staff, and managers is absolute.
Real Madrid, according to sources from the club to this newspaper, would have wanted the match to be suspended directly. “It was clear that the storm was going to be very strong in the central and northern areas,” they say. It was not a good idea to travel with the uncertainty of whether on Saturday at 9:00 p.m., when the game was scheduled, it could be played. La Liga, anticipating a solution to the problem of travel, urged the white club to travel this Friday afternoon, since in Pamplona it wasn't going to start snowing until Saturday at noon… Madrid was going to do it on the same Saturday morning.
Now, Real Madrid He prefers, since he has traveled, that the game be ahead of its schedule to ensure that it can be played, and play it at noon. Otherwise, if it were at nine o'clock and time prevented it, Madrid would have to spend another night in Pamplona to play on Sunday. That was LaLiga's initial plan.
Weather forecasts indicate that at 12 noon in Pamplona there will be a temperature of zero degrees. The snowfalls will then be weak. It is from six in the afternoon when the thermometer will drop and the snowfall will begin to be more abundant.
