For the first half, Barcelona exhibited quite a lot of talent and stunt so that they went on to dominate possession. However, it was Chelsea that came as close to the net as possible. Eden Hazard made an early attempt when he flashed a shot over the bar. Wilian also hit the bar from outside the box twice in the 34th and 41st minutes consecutively. Barca lost a chance in the 16th minute when their Paulinho headed wide.

At this point, Barcelona was put in a spot and Messi, who soon spotted an error of a poor pass from Christensen Andersen, soon closed up the gap.

CATALONIA: BARCA FC HOLDS ITS OWN AGAINST ITS OWN

Good grief, Barcelona FC is about to have their biggest crisis- Catalonia. Indeed, Neymar’s unprecedented departure from Barca FC has proven to be just the start of the many thunderbolts that threaten to destabilise the club.

Really, the catastrophe that took place on the first of October in Spain proves the enormity of the situation. Catalonia decided to hold a referendum to assert the position of the Spaniard majority regarding the independence. Well, the Federal Government of Spain disagreed vehemently against this motion, even sending out Spanish Police who seized ballots, used force and whatever other means to stop citizens from voting. Against this backdrop, Barcelona FC was denied the right to postpone a match on this first of October. They were forced to play against UD Las Palmas in an empty stadium. Behind closed doors.

CATALONIA PUTS THE WORLD IN A FIX

vtpass,catalonia,barcaNow, as sports and politics are usually intertwined in countries like Spain. It is inevitable to ignore the impact of Catalonia’s decision to secede from Spain and be an independent country. For one, Barcelona FC’s Camp Nou is officially located in Catalonia. Thus, when Catalonia becomes independent, Barca will no longer be allowed to compete in the La Liga.

Of course, by all means, this will affect all ends. It is the legendary state rivalry between Real Madrid and Barca that spices up the La Liga. It also draws international attention to the football tournament. Consequently, the league, Catalonia, and Spain will fizzle out of the football headlines gradually yet surely. Barca’s administration professes that they can always walk their way around this. and still, compete in the La Liga league. But Javier Tebas, the president of the league, insists this will not be allowed.

FOOTBALLERS ARE MADE TO LOOK AWAY FROM THE BALL

To start with, Gerard Pique, one of Barca’s star man, in an emotional interview, is clearly torn between two sides. He has both Spanish and Catalan heritage. But he wishes to stay in Spain despite the booings and criticisms coming from all sides. Sergio Ramos, a player in Real Madrid, is unrepentant in his support of Spain and its rulings. He even tells Pique, who just happens to be a very close friend, to keep his Catalan sentiments to himself. Now this shows just how much the split is going to affect both even the individual lives of the Spaniards.
