La Liga alleges several legal obstacles to not canceling his television contract in Russia with Okko after invasion Ukrainea channel where thousands of Russians can watch Classic this weekend. Beyond culé’s victory, what they never see is the message”Stop Invasion” (“No to invasion” as it appears on the Spanish signal). The organization wanted the Russian people to be able to see the campaign that had been carried out, but television had replaced this sign next to the scoreboard with the championship logo.

While Premier League he did not hesitate to end not only his relationship with Russia, but also with China not to condemn the invasion, LaLiga has defended it. The organization he leads Javier Thebes it canceled the campaign to be carried out on Russian soil. For example, as long as That Classic held in different parts of the world with ambassadors (former football players). In addition, delegates working in Moscow also back to Spanish.

Russia is trying to hide this movement from its people. russian tv channel TV Match replaced at least twice the planes with Ukrainian flags and messages against the invasion during the second round of the round of 16 Europa League between West Ham and Seville. The first is when Andrey Yarmolenko entered the field, while the Russians placed someone who was eating in the stands. The second was with the international winning goal for Ukraine in extra time.

English Russia is not the only country to cancel its television contracts. France previously took this path by canal TV Match. Meanwhile, Ukraine, despite the war situation that continued to worsen day by day with Russia staking out several cities, he continued to watch football. That Real Madrid – FC Barcelona this past week see through MEGOGO. In this broadcast, the “Stop Invasion” fly did indeed come out.

It’s not easy

This motto also slipped into the first broadcast in Russia since LaLiga made this decision, but not so during El Clásico. Russian censors seem to be calming championship intentions, a gesture to the Russians coming through with football. In the world’s most followed game, the message “No to invasion” appears. Not like that in colonial countries.

It is true that LaLiga, if the contract is cancelled, could appear to be in legal trouble. The Premier League must pay a fee to the operator Wandererwhich governs these rights to publish them through Okko. The same will happen in Ligue-1, which is in a much more difficult economic situation than the Spanish championship. That Bundesligathat A league and, above all, Champions League together with the rest of the competition UEFA still broadcast too.

Great Britain is the country that has sanctioned Russia the most and neither will the Premier League be reduced. He executed this block in Russia in the league, but he couldn’t do it with matches FA Cup. The British Federation is still trying to find a solution to terminate his contract with TV Matchas also being tried by UEFA with the national team matches played at this interval.

Nigel HuddlestonThe United Kingdom’s Minister of Sport, puffed out his chest after the news of the Premier League, who also decided to donate more than one million euros to Ukrainian Disaster Emergency Committee: “Russia cannot be allowed to legitimize its illegal wars through sport and culture, and we must work together to ensure that Putin remains a pariah on the international stage.” The Premier League is the championship where most of the movement against the invasion has seen.

League on the move

After all, the Spanish championship has many cues with the country being attacked by Russia. That Real Madrid On March 5, he launched the “Everyone with Ukraine” campaign and last Wednesday announced that he would donate one million euros. In addition, it has a direct donation channel on its website to help all those affected by the war. He also turned to his players, Andriy Lunindeeply affected by what is happening in his nation.

That Atlético Madrid joins the wave of Spanish sports solidarity with the victims of the war in Ukraine. The club has announced through its foundation that it has chartered a bus together with Madrid community with humanitarian assistance. For its part, FC Barcelona will set up tents to collect basic necessities for babies and young children who come with their mothers at various points Camp Nou on March 28, 29 and 30, coinciding with the match Champions League of the women’s soccer team against Real Madrid.

This line continues with the campaign Spaniard, Osasuna, Alaves, Valencia, Levante, Real calves HI Celtic. National football has also moved away from the simplest categories, and even from women’s football. However, this LaLiga blur does not hide the generosity of the majority of sporting entities. That RFEFfor example, placing all of its operational weapons so that the Spaniards in Ukraine could get out of there.
