Title
Famous Olympic Games Stadium Exterior on Montjuic Hill in Barcelona, Spain also Football Club Sports Arena Venue
Keywords:
amphitheater, architecture, arena, barcelona, blue, building, catalan, catalonia, championship, city, classical, culture, day, europe, european, exterior, facade, famous, football, historic, landmark, mansion, modern, montjuic, olympic, olympics, outside, park, popular, sky, skyline, soccer, spain, spanish, sport, sports, stadium, sunny, theater, theatre, travel, urban, venue, wall
For the life of it I can't find the problem keyword. Can you? Only one I can think of is "olympic".

Olympic, olympics are trademarked by the IOC so you should remove them.
Apart from that, maybe you could add in amphitheatre seeing as you have both UK and American spellings of theatre/theater.

I've had pix taken in Olympic national Park (a public domain name) rejected for this reason (& our state capital is Olympia!)
a trademark only covers use that infringes that particular use (eg 2 different uses of trademarked 'Apple' are accepted), but IOC managed to trademark a word that was millennia old and bludgeons anyone trying to use the word in another sense.
otoh SS has 300K+ olympic images! so likely a big difference in reviewers
