On the sidelines of the football matches of the Atlético de Madrid or the Vallecano Ray, Endesa Basketball League matches or the international handball match between Spain and Croatia have also been affected.

The closure of the Madrid-Barajas Airport has prevented the selection of Croatia get to the capital to face Spain in international match. The match should have been played on Saturday at the WiZink Center.

The decision to suspend the meeting was carried out by the EHF at the request of the Spanish Federation, nine hours before what would have been the start of the clash, still with the Croatian team at the Zagreb airport. This means that the Spanish National Team appears in the World Cup with only one preparation match played.
