La Liga: Barcelona vs. Osasuna Rescheduled for March 27
The match between Barcelona and Osasuna, initially scheduled for March 8 but postponed due to the passing of Barcelona’s team doctor Carles Minarro, will now take place on March 27, as announced by La Liga on Monday.
According to local newspapers, Barcelona is unhappy with the new date and plans to file an appeal. The club’s main argument is that its stars, Brazilian winger Raphinha and Uruguayan defender Ronald Araújo, will return from South American World Cup qualifiers just two days before the match.
The new schedule is also inconvenient for Osasuna, as they are set to face Athletic Bilbao just 24 hours later, requiring further adjustments to their calendar.
Barcelona currently leads La Liga on goal difference ahead of Real Madrid, though they have played one game less.
