Audi Cup Resumen

Barcelona have officially abandoned plans to honour their eight Spanish World Cup winners ahead of Thursday's La Liga fixture against Athletic Club. The decision follows recent clashes between supporters and national police, prompting the Catalan club to scrap the pre-match ceremony at Camp Nou amid rising political tensions.

UEFA is prepared to formally withdraw its threat to boycott FIFA competitions following a period of intense friction between the two governing bodies. The decision comes after European leaders received firm assurances that Gianni Infantino's controversial and now-failed plan to sell off World Cup rights to private investors will not be resurrected.
