The popularity of Shakira has forced Mexican club Necaxa to play their upcoming Copa Libertadores match hundreds of miles away from the Azteca stadium.
Necaxa, who go into the third-round second leg tie against the Uruguayan side Nacional with a 3-2 deficit, will stage the match at Mexico City’s Azteca stadium, around 600 kilometres from their base in Aguascalientes.
Mexican media said that Shakira was due to give a concert at the La Vitoria stadium on Friday and it would take more than 24 hours to prepare the arena for her show.
Copa Libertadores is the South American equivalent of the European Champions League.
