The president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation, Luis Rubiales , appeared at the end of the meeting that measured Spain with Lithuania and spoke of the possibility that there will be more positives in the Absolute expedition, while the U-21s were the who played this Tuesday’s meeting in Butarque, with an unbeatable result. Rubiales charged hard against TVE after they decided to broadcast the meeting on their thematic channel, Teledeporte .
«I am going to say it from the respect and education. This goes to the top. For the first time in history they have made the decision to have a game scheduled on the first channel to pass it to another. Today we needed more support than ever. If you want to respect the players, the National Team and the RFEF, this is not the way ”, stated the president of the RFEF categorically.
“Hopefully they treat the National Team of all Spaniards with more respect and affection. Especially in a moment of weakness, more positive can come, it is likely to happen . These players deserve respect. Also the shield they wear on the shirt. There is no profession in Spain that forces its companies to give up their workers. That happens with the Selection. When they come they represent an entire country. They are obliged, but happy and proud to defend their country. It is regulated by law that a player cannot say no, “he added.
«I deeply regret what has happened, it has been a wrong and very hard decision for us after many years of connection and collaboration with Televisión Española. I repeat that those of you who are here (journalists) are a ten, but today the opportunity to make a decision of support, of support in a moment of weakness and not a commercial decision, has been lost, ”concluded Rubiales.
