Spanish League starts with Barcelona and Madrid absent
The Spanish La Liga season officially began on Saturday, less than a month after the Spanish national team was crowned World Cup champions. It is considered the first major European league to kick off its season. One match was postponed due to a damaged pitch at Balaídos stadium, while Real Madrid, led by José Mourinho, starts their campaign against Espanyol on August 22. Barcelona, aiming for a treble, begins their season on August 23 against Eibar. The opening weekend matches saw some clubs returning to competition after periods of absence. Additionally, the "Connected Ball" technology was announced to be implemented, providing live data on the ball's position and safety during matches. The two giant clubs are competing for the title, with Mourinho returning to Real Madrid and other teams making strengthening signings, while Atlético Madrid faces uncertainty regarding the future of their striker, Álvarez, amid squad changes.
