NFL fans expressed shock and disappointment after footage emerged from an international game held in Madrid, with many comparing the stadium facilities to a high school venue.
The footage, which circulated on social media, showed the playing surface and surrounding infrastructure at the Madrid venue, prompting widespread criticism from viewers who expected higher standards for an NFL international fixture.
Comments on social media platforms highlighted the apparent lack of professional-grade amenities, with the phrase "looks like a high school" becoming a common refrain among fans reacting to the video.
The NFL has been expanding its international series in recent years, hosting games in London, Germany, and Mexico, but the Madrid game appears to have drawn particular scrutiny over the venue's suitability.
