Today the Mumbai District Football Association (MDFA) has ordered the unavailability of the former Barcelona and Juventus stars being the main reason for the match rescheduling. The 'Clash of the legends' match between Juventus and Barcelona have been rescheduled for another date. However, the association has not clarified the rescheduled date on which the match will be played. 

Yet to know that India has already testified top foreign teams. The teams were with the likes of Bayern Munich, Santos, and Cosmos. In the year 2011, the football-crazy city of Kolkata also observed an international friendly between Argentina and Venezuela.

While there was a huge build-up to the legends match, initially scheduled to happen on April 27 has been postponed. This is bound to happen when the most polished footballers of all time from the two European football titans are set to take center stage again. 

Team members of the match were:
David Trezeguet, Edgar Davids, Paulo Montero, Ciro Ferrara, Fabrizio Ravanelli and Gianluca Zambrotta are some of the Juventus legends who were set to play the game. Meanwhile, Andoni
Golcoetxea, Frederik Dehu, MA Nadal, Frank de Boer, Juan Carlos Rodriguez and Jose Edmilson are among the Barcelona legends who were scheduled to play this match. 

This is going to be the 4th game for Barca legends. The real idea behind the legends project is to generalize the club's name. According to sportskeeda, it is vital for the match to bring in all the desired players for the match as only then will it produce the impact of promoting football in India. The fans are the most important stakeholders and it will be heartbreaking for them to not see their icons so MDFA has gone ahead with the decision.
