Real Oviedo’s Santi Cazorla complained that Spain’s La Liga is a long way behind the Premier League.

BARCELONA: Real Oviedo midfielder Santi Cazorla complained Spain’s La Liga is a long way behind the Premier League on Sunday, a day after his team’s match at Rayo Vallecano was postponed at short notice.

Oviedo’s visit to Rayo’s Vallecas Stadium on Saturday was called off hours before the game with La Liga explaining the conditions were not safe for the players because of the state of the recently-laid pitch.

“The reality is La Liga is light years behind the Premier League in every sense,” wrote former Arsenal playmaker Cazorla on social media.
