– Manuel Pellegrini, Real Betis coach, commented on Carlo Ancelotti’s talk about the rest periods between matches, stressing that this is not the jurisdiction of the coaches.
“I think the coaches do not have power to say when we play or when we do not play, there are people responsible for ensuring that the rest time is legal or not, it does not come back to me, this is the eighth or ninth time that we play less than 72 hours and we have not made any claims,” Pellegrini said.
