The Bayer Leverkusen coach, the Spanish Xabi Alonso, today showed his support for the players of the Spanish soccer team in their confrontation with the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), despite the fact that this morning's three-way meeting, with the Higher Sports Council (CSD) as a mediator, has allowed positions to be brought closer.
"My daughters will remember in the future what these women fought for. What they are fighting for is good for football, but also for society," she said. For Alonso, football is important but society "is more important." "Football is just a game. That's why everything that is happening right now can only be the first step. But it is an important step," she said.
Alonso described what happened in the Federation as "shameful" and regretted the experience of the players. "The players became world champions, their success should have been talked about. But sometimes good things can come from bad things if you fight for the right cause. The footballers are fighting for their rights and they are clearly going for the right goal." good way".
"After the things we have seen in the recent past, it is important that things change in Spanish football and in the RFEF," he concluded.
