La Liga Action

Barcelona fans are friendly

Things flare up over in Spain

Barcelona fans were none too happy with being a goal down at Steve Finnan’s side Espanyol this weekend, so they had to pull something out of the bag to encourage their team. Instead of producing a rousing chant, they took the classic ‘throw flares at the home fans and get the game stopped for eight minutes approach’. It was a cunning move, as Barca won the match 2-1 courtesy of a 103rd minute (!) effort from Leo Messi.

    These “fans” have been banned from the Nou Camp. It is sad, that Espanyol and Barca officials did not communicate with one another about the threats that the “fan club” gave. Boixos Nois is a notorious for these types of actions and are no more than a bunch of hooligans who ruin the game.
