The Spanish national soccer team is preparing to play for the first time in South Florida.
The squad, often referred to as La Roja, has a game against Haiti on Saturday at 4 p.m. at Sun Life Stadium. This is the first time the team will play Haiti, according to a press release.
Spain is not only the reigning World Cup champion, but it is also the 2008 and 2012 Euro champion.
Tickets are $29 and a limited number of VIP field seats will be available to watch the match from the sidelines.
One dollar per ticket will go toward Project Phoenix to help build a national team stadium in the Haitian neighborhood of Cite Soleil.
