The Celta-Osasuna match will be played on August 27 at 20:30, not on Sunday night as initially planned. The state of the Balaídos pitch, affected by a fungus, has advised this. LaLiga technicians carried out a double inspection on Wednesday, the second at the end of the day to check if there was any improvement in the state of the pitch. Last week the playing field had been validated by the League itself.
What happened?
The Celta-Osasuna match has been postponed due to the state of the Balaídos pitch. The decision has been consensual with both clubs, as the playing field is not suitable for the match.
Why it matters for Celta Vigo?
The decision to postpone the match may be uncomfortable for fans who had already organized their day to accompany the team in this start of the competition. However, the new date is Thursday, August 27, at 20:30 hours, which allows Celta Vigo players and technical staff to prepare adequately for the match.
What comes next?
The match date has been postponed until Thursday, August 27, at 20:30 hours. Celta Vigo fans can continue to prepare for the match and support their team on the new date.
Celta Vigo regrets the inconvenience that this decision may cause to all fans who had already organized their day to accompany the team in this start of the competition, and thanks for the understanding in this exceptional circumstance.
