Six of the eight games were played on Sunday. The nine players of Barcelona, for example, faced Madrid CFF at 12:00 in the morning and stayed at night in the capital. They were not the only ones. Atlético-Real Sociedad was played at 6:00 pm in Alcalá de Henares and after the clash the internationals began the concentration with La Roja.
Jorge Vilda has not had this time room for improvement. The team has not been able to exercise in Spain.
