Iago Aspas explodes over Celta's league schedule: "This is starting to become a joke in bad taste"

Iago Aspas explodes over Celta's league schedule: "This is starting to become a joke in bad taste"

Celta de Vigo has been in a state of tension for some time now due to the schedule that LaLiga has been choosing for the Galician team during the current season, but the publication of the schedule for the 28th round of the regular season championship, to be played on 14, 15 and 16 March, has made the Celta de Vigo's patience run over. A new match, this time in Zorrilla against Valladolid, scheduled for 2:00 p.m. , has made the captain of the Vigo club, Iago Aspas, explode .

The Moaña native could not resist and shared his displeasure on social media after learning that his team, which is tenth in the league , will play at lunchtime for the third consecutive matchday. After playing on Saturday 1 March in Girona and on the 8th in Balaídos against Leganés, they will also have to play at 2:00 pm the following weekend in Pucela.

"This is starting to become a joke in bad taste," the Galician striker responded on his X profile, formerly Twitter, to LaLiga's publication with the schedules for matchday 28. And the fact is that lunchtime is now Celta's time, since with the Valladolid match there will be nine games in which the Galician team will have had to play in that time slot, four away and five at Balaídos.

Seven other games played by the Vigo team have been played on Friday or Monday, the other most controversial time slots in LaLiga due to the greater difficulty or inconvenience for fans to attend . Of the four on Friday, three were at home, and of the three on Monday, one.

Good attendance figures at Balaídos

Despite everything, Celta Vigo's stadium is one of those with the best average attendance this year, with around 22,500 fans per game.
