Let’s take this cunts Old firm derby to Miami and see how he likes it?
-
This is bullshit, Americans don’t care about football, I know Hispanics love football and they will probably fill the stands, but this is a Spanish competition, and for this reason it has to be played in Spain. And we all know that the Spanish FA wants to make a political affair about it, they are prohibiting the Catalan flags in a Catalan derby ? That smells like shit, fuck this bullshit
-
Think this expansion should’ve been between England and the US. With the NFL having games in England, I think it’d make sense to get a game or two from the premier league in the States.
-
This is ridiculous
-
I hope Barcelona will stand up with a B team

With midweek cupgames, January is an insanely tiring month for the players and two 8 hour flights and jetlag is going to make it even worse. It's a disadvantage that other teams don't have.
If the fixture was decided by a draw or something, it would be kind of alright, but the fact that this is a Catalan derby makes it blatant favoritism towards Madrid.
I suspect they will also make it about politics by playing the Spanish national anthem before the game, giving away Spanish flags and not allowing the Senyera. -
They let big star's to walk away for money issues,and now they go abroad to promote la liga.
-
unpopular opinion I like the idea of having teams coming to America
-
I rather watch Inter Miami than shit Messi
-
This is ridiculous.. not needed usa fans all ready love European football.. look at those useless icc matches..
-
Okay but Girona fans deserve to see this game in their home stadium, doesn't matter if 'no one cares it's Girona'. Last year barca found it hard to break thro when they played there. Such an ignorant response.
-
Fuck u laliga this is bullshit learn from prem league.
-
Its more nonsense after nonsense … NWO at play . Wake up people ! Money are going to kill everything decent in humanity .
-
Oh god
-
stupid idea this
-
We in the US travel there to watch games ..soccer fans in america are not fans of the MLS there are hard rock fans of premier league , la liga serie A and now the dominance of French football
-
Be open to other worldeide fans
-
The nfl plays in the uk
-
Tebas is so stupid.
-
Messi not picked as best player, yet who is chosen as the ambassador for la liga (and European football) in USA! FIFA continues its corruption
-
A fuckin joke
-
Damn dude is just Trump in disguise cares nothing about the benefit of diversifying the culture
-
Those who are saying its just one game please understand that they are taking away a small team's home match to a entirely different continent. They already dont have much fans but still atleast 10k people come to their stadium and support them. Now in Miami 90% people wouldnt even know who Girona is so almost everyone would support Barca. Please explain how the hell it will be a Girona home game when more than 90% people would be Barca fans or would be supporting Barca?
-
I thought Spain fans don’t travel to AWAY games ?
-
Who takes the Bundesliga serious ? Come on
-
Wats next? Real Madrid to play against Betis in North Korea??!!!
-
What about people with season pass, they were never told one of the games was gonna be abroad not fair!
-
Remember people football is a global sport fans are everywhere
-
It’s only one game, what’s that guy so butthurt about?
-
I guess it's because I'm so used to the NFL and NBA doing this but I don't know why you guys are so outraged. Seriously, it's one freakin game, I've never heard of any other fans complain about this until you guys.
-
Americans goes to the sports matches to drink a beer and sleep on the chair ,they don't know what the football is and what
feeling,love and passion football fans have to their team.
You bastard Americans let our beautiful football alone and stuck with the boring stupid sport you have. -
Why miami? Terrible sports town
-
Barça in America with actual starters. Love it.
-
Stink bomb!
-
Dumbest idea ever, domestic league should be in their own country. What’s the point of home or away? You’re telling me Girona is going to come to U.S with majority of their fans? Barcelona will be the clear home team lol, how’s that fair?
-
It’s honestly sad and hilarious how pathetic the Spanish league is. I mean fucking let Barcelona make fools of themselves. The fucking bundles Liga is more entertaining than La Liga
-
agggghhh its just one game
-
What, Americans don't have damn TVs in their homes? THE ENTIRE ASIA IS GETTING INTO FOOTBALL PURELY BY WATCHING IT ON TV AND PLAYING ON THE STREETS.
-
they should add some east coast mls teams to the spanish league. i think it would create a lot of interest
-
So Girona will lost oneof their home game? It's unfair for Girona because they'll got no supports from the stand since all the people of Miami will supports Barca obviously
-
so now Messi has to save La Liga??? That's basically the bottom line
