The RFEF will move the U-20 match against Mexico, which had been scheduled to take place in Ceuta, to another city. This was confirmed by its president, Rafael Louzán, in remarks reported by COPE.
According to Louzán, the security forces are not providing the Federation with the necessary guarantees to hold the match in the autonomous city. The new venue will be “some stadium in Madrid,” although it has not yet been specified which one.
The president wanted to make it clear that the Federation continues to support the city: “We stand with Ceuta,” he said before explaining the decision. The change leaves Ceuta without a national team match that had already been assigned to it.
In Louzán’s remarks, the stadium that will serve as the new venue is not specified.
