The president of La Liga, Javier Tebas, spoke about the cancellation of the Spanish championship match in Miami between Villarreal and Barcelona. His words are quoted by Marca.

“There is no word ‘failure’ in my life. I have tried and we will continue to try. This is all related to the legal differences between FIFA and Relevent (the company that deals with the promotion of the match – note) about the possibility of this match being held in the United States. A commission was created to regulate such matches.

We operate on the basic idea that each league can only play one match per season abroad, and the host country can play no more than one such match.

We will continue to work, an agreement must be reached because this is what the United States asked FIFA for. So there is still a long way to go. Always try. If you don’t try, you’re a failure.

Did I lose? Losing is so subjective… Would I want this match on December 20th? Yes. If that counts as a defeat then yes, but for me…

I’ve been saying for a long time that playing in Miami was not one of my main goals. I have spoken about this publicly many times. I think I said it wasn’t even in the top ten La Liga goals.

Many people take an interest in my persona, and if I played a board game and lost, that too would become public property. Things didn’t turn out the way I would have liked, but I don’t consider it a defeat. There is still a long way to go,” Tebas said.
