The La Liga match between Villarreal and Barcelona, scheduled for Miami, has been canceled. Here is the reason why.

"Given the current uncertainty in Spain, there is insufficient time to properly execute an event of this scale," said organisers.

La Liga president Javier Tebas didn’t explicitly name Real Madrid during a lengthy social media post lamenting the cancelation of the Miami-based league fixture between Villarreal and Barcelona, but didn’t deploy much subtlety when accusing certain forces of “killing the project.”
