La Liga to Host First-Ever Match Abroad

La Liga will hold its first match outside the borders in the history of the league in December of this year. The game will take place in Seville at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium where Sevilla meets Atlético Madrid. This event will become part of an initiative aimed at promoting Spanish football beyond the country's borders.

President of La Liga Javier Tebas emphasized the importance of this step: "Being the first league to conduct games outside the borders is a serious challenge. We are convinced that this will bring benefits to Spanish football and contribute to its promotion worldwide."

It was stated that, besides fans attending the match, the event will attract the attention of millions of television viewers worldwide.
