😱Censorship? La Liga didn't show the protest during Oviedo-Espanyol | OneFootball

Just minutes ago, the match between Real Oviedo and Espanyol kicked off to start Matchday 9 of La Liga.

After the decision was made that Barcelona and Villarreal would play their match in Miami, the captains of the clubs agreed to protest against it.

This was organized by the AFE, which proposed not playing the first 30 seconds of each game to "highlight the lack of transparency, dialogue, and coherence." This is because they believe the decision was made without consulting the players' association and, obviously, disregarded their well-being.

Because of this, all eyes were on the Carlos Tartiere, however, the official La Liga broadcast decided to show a pan of the stadium from the outside to avoid showing the protest.

Social media exploded with outrage and accused La Liga of censoring the professionals' freedom of expression.
