Rafael Louzán held a working meeting on Monday with the president of the Consejo Superior de Deportes during which he called for ‘collaboration, understanding and loyalty’ between the two bodies.
The match against Belgium turned into a celebration of solidarity with those affected by the floods, who were able to enjoy the national team's victory from the stands in the first Spain match of the year.
Rafael Louzán took advantage of the morning before the Spanish national team’s match against Belgium to personally visit some of the projects being carried out to restore sports facilities in the province of Valencia.
Both the men's and women's national teams will travel by train, a more environmentally sustainable means of transport, on their trips to Valencia for matches organised to support those affected by the floods in the area.
The RFEF has brought together all professional women's football clubs together with the F League representatives at the federation's headquarters. Among the issues proposed by the clubs and discussed at the meeting were the possibility of implementing a VAR system as well as the potential for refereeing teams to be mixed, made up of both men and women.
Spain will kick off 2025 by playing against Belgium at the Ciutat de València to show its support for all those affected by last October's floods. Among the initiatives, the invitation to the match to clubs and representatives of the affected areas, a solidarity fan zone, the sale of t-shirts with the slogan the We Play For You (Jugamos por vosotr@s) next to the stadium and the meeting of the children of these areas with the internationals of the national team.
