Raphinha and Araujo to miss rescheduled match against Osasuna
On Thursday, March 27, Barcelona is set to play against Osasuna in the rescheduled match of La Liga's 27th round, but the Catalans will be without two players.
Details: Barcelona's head coach Hansi Flick revealed that neither Raphinha nor Araujo will assist the Catalans in this game. The reason is that they played in World Cup qualifying matches. The journey from South America is long, so both players need time to rest.
It's worth noting that on March 25, Uruguay played away against Bolivia and the match ended in a 0-0 draw. Brazil faced Argentina and suffered a heavy 1-4 defeat.
We previously reported that La Liga officially approved March 27 as the new date for the rescheduled 26th round match between Barcelona and Osasuna. The Catalan club reacted extremely negatively to this decision. Barcelona's head coach Hansi Flick was furious upon learning that the match would take place immediately after the international break.
Reminder: Osasuna also decided to appeal the new date of the match.
