Having just seen the National Tournament played in Vila-Real end, the countdown is on for the second edition of the International LaLiga Promises Tournament.

The u12 sides of FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Club Atlético de Madrid, Villarreal CF, Valencia CF and Sevilla FC travelled to Colombia on Monday afternoon. At Madrid Barajas airport the previous day's final between Sevilla and Barcelona was still a hot topic.

During the flight, which lasted almost 10 hours, players from all sides were seen mixing, sharing secrets and smiles, playing video consoles and making jokes. The famous Rubik Cube was part of the in-flight entertainment, with some of the boys showing their ability off the pitch too.

However without doubt the moment of the day was at Barranquilla Airport, with the reception that the mayor's office has prepared for the boys. Percussion, music and traditional dances plus a lot of rhythm welcomed them on their visit to Colombia.

The youngsters will have until Thursday to get to know Barranquilla a bit more, while also doing light training at the Estadio Metropolitano, the location of the second edition of the International LaLiga Promises Tournament.
