Tebas explained the reasoning behind the decision, stating that it was not within La Liga's power to change the schedule. He pointed out that other top European clubs, such as PSG and Chelsea, do not adjust their schedules for their first matches, and that Real Madrid would still have enough time to prepare for their game against Osasuna.
Tebas emphasized that Real Madrid would have 20 days of preparation for the game, which he believed was sufficient. He expressed his confidence that the team would not be severely affected by the one-day delay.
La Liga has maintained its original schedule, and Real Madrid will have to proceed with their planned match against Osasuna on August 19th.
