Weather Woes Delay Spain's Journey to World Cup Qualifier

Spain's trip to Elche for a World Cup qualifier against Georgia was delayed due to bad weather. The soccer federation rescheduled travel plans and requested UEFA to allow pre-match activities in Madrid. Authorities advised limiting travel, leading to the suspension of other activities in Elche.

Spain's departure to Elche for Saturday's World Cup qualifier against Georgia has been postponed due to adverse weather conditions, according to the country's soccer federation.

The national team altered its travel plans initially set for Friday after southeastern Spain received a weather alert warning of severe rain and potential flooding.

The federation is seeking UEFA's approval to relocate all pre-match events, including press conferences, to the team's Madrid training center, and announced the suspension of non-essential activities in Elche based on local authority advice.
