FBL-ESP-USA-LIGA-VILLARREAL-REAL BETIS

Players stand on the pitch in a symbolic protest against the proposed relocation of the Villarreal-Barcelona match to Miami, at the start of the Spanish league football match between Villarreal CF and Real Betis at La Ceramica Stadium in Vila-real on October 18, 2025. A "symbolic protest" - remaining motionless for the first 15 seconds of each match on the ninth day - over the relocation of Villarreal-Barcelona to Miami has triggered a war between the Spanish championship footballers and the organization, which is not broadcasting the images of this protest on television.
