The iconic Santiago Bernabéu stadium, home to Spain's Real Madrid, will host a National Football League (NFL) game for the first time. On Sunday, it will be the venue for the match between the Miami Dolphins and Washington Commanders. According to the Argentine News Agency, the home of the most successful UEFA Champions League winner is already prepared for the event, and on Friday, work was completed both on the field and in the stands and adjacent areas. The field had to be adapted to the American football length of 120 yards (109.72 meters), including the 100 yards of play and the end zones, with a width of 53.33 yards (48.76 meters). The soccer goals were removed, and the high goalposts were installed. On the sides, mobile benches for players and specific sectors for warm-up areas were placed. This will be the first time Spain hosts a game of this American sport and will feature an Argentine: the artist Bizarrap. The music producer will give a show alongside Puerto Rican singer Daddy Yankee, a week after they released their latest work, the "BZRP Music Sessions #0/66," which is a worldwide hit with nearly 40 million views on YouTube.
