We know the teams but not the players who will take the controls, although there have already been some during these days of confinement that have been very active in video games, such as Thibaut Courtois, goalkeeper of Real Madrid, or Borja Iglesias, forward of the Real Betis Balompié.
Sport continues on consoles
We have already witnessed curious initiatives in the world of sports, and how the Andalusian derbies – with Reguilón and the aforementioned Iglesias at the controls – and Asturian, but there have been other leading sports.
Last week we witnessed a great tournament between NBA players in NBA 2K20, with some great stars like Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, Donovan Mitchell or Trae Young participating. But the surprise comes when even competitions such as cycling, tennis or even horse riding seek their place in the virtual world.
