What a mess! Quite why they didn't stop all the relevant games from being played is a mystery. Then again, Fuenlabrada's lawyer is the son of the president of La Liga. Probably no connection there!
What happened? Deportivo and Fuenlabrada were due to play each other with the former fighting to avoid relegation and the latter trying to reach the play-offs for a spot in La Liga. The game was postponed when 12 positive Covid-19 tests were revealed within the Fuenlabrada squad. The other games went ahead. Elche and Rayo both won their games leaving Elche in the last play-off place. Deportivo got relegated because other results went against them.
Now we have to wait until 30 July, and if the Covid tests are negative by then, Fuenlabrada have the chance to beat a dejected and already relegated Deportivo and nick the last play-off space.
Spanish football has been suspected of being corrupt to the core many times before. Make your own minds up!
