Doubt lingers over the match’s commencement, as FC Barcelona has been significantly impacted by a Covid-19 outbreak. Addressing the situation during a press conference on Saturday, Xavi directly voiced his opinion.
“Our predicament is severe. We’re missing 17 to 18 players. Positively, it seems Umtiti, having tested negative, is on the mend. Postponement is the sensible course. Logic should prevail. Playing tomorrow serves no purpose. Mallorca also faces difficulties, with positive cases amongst their players…” the Barça manager stated.
