Real Madrid opposed holding the Villarreal–Barcelona game in Miami
Real Madrid has opposed the match between Villarreal and Barcelona, planned to be held in the USA as part of the Spanish championship. The Madrid club sent an official complaint to the Higher Sports Council (CSD) of Spain regarding this issue.

According to Euro-football.ru, Real Madrid considers holding a championship match abroad to be contrary to the fairness of the competition. CSD representatives sent an official request to the Royal Spanish Football Federation asking for the legal grounds for holding a La Liga match abroad.

This process led to a review of the matter of an important La Liga clash being held in another country. Previously, it had been announced that the match between Villarreal and Barcelona would be held in the city of Miami.

UEFA allowed clubs to play in other countries because current regulations do not specifically set a procedure for this. The practice of holding La Liga matches abroad has sparked much debate in recent years.

Experts predict that such games may continue in the future.
