FIFA and UEFA "abused their dominant position" and "prevented free competition" by opposing the creation of a European Super League, a Spanish court said Monday.
The ruling, which echoed an earlier ruling by European Court of Justice, ordered football's two governing bodies "to halt their anti-competitive behaviour" which had imposed "unjustified and disproportionate restrictions" on free competition within the market, the court said in a case filed by the promoters of the Super League.
Real Madrid and Barcelona are strong supporters of the project that most of Europe's other big clubs have abandoned.
