The La Liga match between Villarreal and Barcelona was set to take place in Miami on 20 December
La Liga has cancelled plans to hold a regular-season match between Villarreal and Barcelona in Miami in December.
In August, the Spanish football federation (RFEF) approved plans to move Villarreal's fixture against Barcelona to Hard Rock Stadium on 20 December - a decision that sparked discontent in Spain.
The plans to hold a top-flight game outside Spain for the first time faced a huge backlash, with players refusing to move for the first 15 seconds of matches in La Liga at the weekend.
Promoters of the match, Relevent, state the reason for the cancellation is because of "insufficient time" to organise the event, with La Liga also citing the "uncertainty in Spain".
