Seville Suspension Request: Government to Junta de Andalucía

The match of the 23rd round of LaLiga 25-26 between Sevilla FC and Girona CF will be played, as scheduled, at 6:30 p.m., but the dispute of the duel is currently being studied. And the club Nervión, always ensuring safety when traveling to the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán for its fans from locations in the province of Seville and the rest of Andalusia, is in permanent contact with LaLiga during the morning and noon of this Saturday with the intention of having the match postponed to tomorrow’s Sunday (the Catalan team’s expedition has been in Seville since yesterday afternoon), due to the havoc that the storm Marta is causing. A decision that the Government Subdelegation has to make, as the league itself has transmitted and insisted to the Sevilla entity.

From Sevilla FC they warn Orgullodenervion.com that the club understands that it is a significant risk for its fans to travel from different parts of the province and the Andalusian community to Nervión to watch the match, which is why it has conveyed to LaLiga its opposition to the match against Girona this afternoon.

For its part, the company chaired by Javier Tebas and which governs and manages the destinies of professional football in Spain understands that the protocol states that the suspension of a match must occur with a red alert (as already happened this season in Villarreal-Levante in the first round) and not orange, as there is at the moment.

Sevilla FC hopes that LaLiga reconsiders its position, or the Government Subdelegation in Seville decides to suspend the match. In this case, the Nervión club claims that the Atlético de Madrid – Sevilla match at the beginning of September 2023 was suspended by the Government Subdelegation in Madrid.

However, sources from the Government Subdelegation in Seville consulted by Orgullodenervion.com y ABC de Sevilla They report that the Subdelegation has already made a request to the Junta de Andalucía, specifically to the provincial delegate, for the suspension of the match between Sevilla and Girona. They emphasize, in the same way, that the powers of the Subdelegation pass through a security policy and not an emergency, whose responsibility falls on the Junta de Andalucía, hence this request between both institutions.

Sevilla FC, Girona, LaLiga and, above all, the fans of the Sevilla team, are waiting for news in this regard.
