Spain will play an international friendly against England [Images] in Seville in February after the visitors refused to play at Real Madrid's [Images] Bernabeu stadium, the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) said on Tuesday.

In a statement, the RFEF said it had decided to hold the match at Sevilla's Sanchez Pizjuan stadium on February 11, without giving any further explanation.

The RFEF was fined U$91,910 after Shaun Wright-Phillips, Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, Jermain Defoe and Jermaine Jenas were racially abused at the Bernabeu after England's last game there in 2004.
