Dolphins vs. Commanders Live: Miami and Washington are headed overseas for international action on Sunday morning. USA TODAY Sports is bringing you live updates, highlights, and more from the matchup.

Football meets fútbol at the home of Real Madrid.

The NFL arrives in Spain’s capital for the very first time as the Miami Dolphins take on the Washington Commanders. A city steeped in history, culture, cuisine, and art is now getting a taste of America’s most popular sport.

Madrid also marks the final stop on the NFL’s 2025 global tour. Soccer may be the world’s game, but the league is eager to expand its footprint — and this international showcase is part of that push.

This season, the NFL has stamped its passport in Brazil, Ireland, England, Germany, and now Spain, with more destinations expected in the coming years. But like any study-abroad trip, the journey eventually ends — though not before one last celebration.

When the schedule was released, this matchup between two 3–7 teams looked far more compelling, but that’s life in the NFL — parity has ruled the 2025 season.

Jayden Daniels and Tyreek Hill are among the biggest stars on these rosters, but neither will be playing on the international stage. Instead, Tua Tagovailoa and Marcus Mariota will lead their teams in Week 11.

The league is heading into the home stretch, but not before one last international stop.
