The Royal Spanish football federation came to a conclusion that handing over the title to Barca just because they are 2 points away from the second-place team is being unfair.
According to the president of the Royal Spanish football federation, Luis Rubiales, he said all matches need to be played to know the champion of the season. He said to the Spanish newspaper;
“We have been working with UEFA for several days on the phone and by videoconference.
