'Football should have stopped after Spain floods'

Carlo Ancelotti, the manager of Real Madrid, believes that football in Spain should have been halted following the devastating flash floods that resulted in over 215 fatalities in the Valencia region.

While Madrid's match in Valencia and Villarreal's game against Rayo Vallecano in La Liga on Saturday were postponed at the request of La Liga to the Royal Spanish FA (RFEF), six other matches in the top division were still played over the weekend.

Additionally, six Copa del Rey fixtures involving La Liga teams, including Valencia, were postponed last week due to official recommendations against non-essential travel in the affected areas.
