The Spanish league will finally play a regular season match in the United States as La Liga confirmed on Wednesday that Villarreal and Barcelona will meet at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami on December 20.
“This match is a historic step that takes La Liga and Spanish football to a whole new level,” Spanish league president Javier Tebas said in a statement from the league.
He and the league had been pushing for a regular season match abroad for some time, with the first attempt coming in 2018 with a match between Barcelona and Girona, but the idea was rejected after criticism from some players, fans and clubs. Subsequent attempts to play there also failed, but the plan moved forward this time after UEFA cleared the match on Monday, despite opposition from fan groups across the continent.
