The Spain national football team has suspended the broadcast of their match on the big screen in Madrid's Plaza de Colón due to a heat warning from the State Meteorological Agency. The match is scheduled to take place on Sunday at 18.00 hours. The Royal Spanish Football Federation and the Madrid City Council have made the final decision due to the intense heat that will be experienced in the capital. Temperatures of up to 39 degrees are expected between 13.00 and 21.00 hours. The RFEF has recommended that fans watch the match in an air-conditioned space, avoiding exposure to the strong heat. Taking precautions, fans should refresh themselves and drink water frequently, keep their homes or spaces cool, and limit outdoor activities. The decision is made with the aim of protecting the health of attendees, organization staff, and support services participating in the event. So, fans should follow basic tips to avoid the heat, such as using sun protection, sunglasses, hats or caps, light, loose clothing. The RFEF has regretted the inconvenience this measure may cause. But, safety is the most important thing, and the RFEF has made the right decision to protect everyone. The City Council has raised the Heat Action Plan to its Emergency and Operational Phase 1, following the increase in risk level by the Public Health of the Community of Madrid. The Spain national football team will continue to play, but the broadcast of the match on the big screen in Plaza de Colón has been suspended.
