Plans to play Barcelona vs. Villarreal in Miami, USA, have been canceled by La Liga. The Hard Rock Stadium was supposed to host the Spanish Premier League match on December 20. It would have been the first time a European league game was held overseas if the game had proceeded. However, in response to outrage and protest from teams and players, La Liga has canceled the plans. According to a statement released on Tuesday, “the official La Liga match promoter in Miami has announced its decision to cancel the event due to the uncertainty surrounding Spain in recent weeks, following discussions with the promoter.” “LaLiga is extremely disappointed that this project, which offered a unique and historic chance to promote Spanish football internationally, cannot proceed.”
