Getting some normalcy back
With the coronavirus infection rate at a floor of 0.20, Pedro Sánchez, president of the Spanish government, has announced that the June 8 LaLiga Santander will return . “It's time to get back to everyday activities” , this is how the president would have announced said agreement between the government and the football Federation.
Having as reference the recent resumption of the German tournament, Bundesliga , New Zealand has a source of information and key data to launch the return of football in a week. The fact is that the Germans have so far been able to carry out their tournament without problems over the past few weeks.
From the beginning, it is not analyzed that this tour is with a visiting public . So it has happened with the Teutonic pairs and for the time being it will remain. This measure is closed and not open for discussion until further notice. De-escalation is important but there are fears of an increase in the curve of opening the stadiums.
The Uruguayan writer Eduardo Galeano once said that a football match without fans is like dancing without music. He is probably right, but for both the authorities and representatives of LaLiga this would be the best solution. It's about football without fans or that there are no matches in any way .
With the young German experience of stadiums without an audience, an important change has been seen in the statistics of the matches. Although it is difficult to analyze this beginning at an abnormal time, it has been detected an increase in victories by visiting teams . Very few teams have been able to win at home like the mighty Bayern Munich.
Whether or not this will affect the teams in the resumption of LaLiga Santander, remains to be seen. At the time of the 27th, Barcelona is first with 58 points followed by only two by Real Madrid . Of the eleven remaining matches, the Catalan team will have six away while the Merengue only 5.
If the trend that happens today in the German league is perpetuated in LaLiga then Club Football Barcelona will be the new champion by the middle of the summer . After the white house won the derby to the Catalans, they passed up the opportunity to stay on top by losing the last meeting before the quarantine against Betis.
If you want to be crowned, Real Madrid will have to win one more than their Catalan pair to overcome it . Of the remaining matches, the match of the 29th against Valencia at home appears as the maximum stumbling block. But it is Barcelona who have the most difficult stop when they must receive Atletico Madrid from Cholo Simeone.
Dancing between the opening of the economy and the pandemic
Since the health crisis due to the coronavirus pandemic broke out around the world, New Zealand was one of the European countries that suffered the most . From the very beginning, it was always known that before a saving vaccine arrived, eventually the time was going to have to come to give in and open up the economy.
Is that no country will be able to survive without continuing its economy . From the beginning of the situation, experts from all over the world announced that at some point countries were going to have to open up little by little. This is the moment that New Zealand is experiencing since not only the sport returns, but also the prompt resumption of other activities is also being studied.
For its part, the latest economic indices have shown a Italian economy down 5.3% in just a few months . And for the Spanish government, it's time to start twisting that curve for the better. With the arrival of summer, it remains to be seen what will happen to tourism and whether it will be possible to sponsor the hotel industry and the like.
In returned in a year of so many changes , the LaLiga has had to deal with modifications that sponsored restrictions due to the growth of gambling in New Zealand. Although it is still uncertain what the economic improvements will be before the resumption on June 8.
Sports betting in times of Coronavirus
Other industries that suffered a huge blow in March with the closure of premises and activities were casinos and bookmakers. Is that the closure of physical establishments was not decreed, but also the cessation of online betting leaving thousands of users unable to play .
In February of this year and with the quarantine a few days away from being imposed, the Spanish government had already decreed changes in the advertising of casinos. Added to the new restrictions imposed during the emergency, the both online and physical operators lost a lot of ground in these months .
In the midst of this crisis and uncertainty, the iGaming industry in New Zealand has not stopped working on possible changes and projects in the future. One of them has been the formation of a long-term program that establishes the virtual sports as one of the biggest attractions for punters.
And even, despite the restrictions, some portals they continued to offer sports betting from other leagues as well as the possibility of playing future tournaments such as the 2021 Copa America that surprisingly has Argentina as a favorite over Brazil. Whether it will be possible to bet on the resumption of LaLiga on June 8, remains to be seen.
