GRANADA: Valencia’s league match against Granada that had been scheduled to play on Saturday has been deferred after a deadly fire in the eastern coastal city, LaLiga stated.
The match had been scheduled to be played at Granada’s Los Carmenes stadium but Valencia pleaded the delay following several people were killed in the fire that ran through a 14-storey tower block in the city and a three-day period of mourning was also announced.
