San Mamés, the outdated and the brand new, was by no means a easy sq.. Fairly, sure. But in addition intense and passionate. A discipline of those that squeeze. Accompanied, after all, by a well-earned patina of the Aristocracy and ancestry, of recognition of the adversary. However with the courtyard as it's, Barça stood within the Cathedral with the embarrassment of the Negreira case on their backs. A cross that guarantees to hold like a Calvary by all of the fields of the firmament any further. A martyrdom that the staff has to endure within the type of songs that they'd by no means heard earlier than. "To Segunda, oé, to Segunda, oé", they unanimously chanted Barcelona from the crowded stands of the stadium.
For various causes, the Blaugrana staff has been capable of obtain shouts towards them from varied coats all through their lives, however "a Segunda" was not a part of the repertoire. As a result of it's normally sung as a mockery of a bunch that's poorly categorised. That they dedicate that to the chief of the competitors should be one thing unprecedented not within the Spanish League, however in world soccer.
The sport was marked to a sure extent by Barça's funds to the previous vice chairman of the referees. As a result of occasions of the week, a criticism by the Prosecutor's Workplace, and resulting from the truth that the younger supporters of Athletic had determined to advertise a measure on the matter. It was about throwing some blue and scarlet payments onto the pitch on the pitch with the greenback image, the phrase mafia and the Barça protect. From that sector of the sphere, the cry "it is a mafia, Barça is a mafia" was vociferated throughout the warm-up. However in follow the gesture of the tickets didn't have a visual reflection past one of many targets. Rather more infamous was the “a Segunda”, and likewise one other extra ingenious tune, resulting from its irony. "Take out Negreira, Xavi take out Negreira."
A musical thread to convey out the colours of a membership like Barça, caught within the tar. Nevertheless, the Blaugrana footballers didn't appear to lose focus. They continued within the regular manner. With out a lot brilliance with the ball however with work and pulling the video games ahead
To additional shake the shaker, considered one of Gil Manzano's assistants raised the flag at Raphinha's purpose and so they needed to go to VAR to validate it. A hit of the know-how that provoked a monumental anger from San Mamés, who devoted a basic whistle to Raphinha after they understood that he celebrated the purpose too effusively. The anger was multiplied by many extra decibels when Gil Manzano annulled Iñaki Williams' equalizing purpose by the hands of Muniain. Even the restrained Ernesto Valverde was outraged and the shouts of “Second Division” returned, along with a flurry of handkerchiefs.
It may very well be stated with out worry of being too incorrect that Barcelona didn't expertise such an setting in Bilbao, with steady protests from the respectable, because the convulsive instances of Schuster and Maradona, when Goikoetxea was a leg hunter, Javier Clemente, a dialectical arsonist and that it was, within the well-known phrases of the German midfielder, like touring “to Korea”.
It was the Eighties and Enríquez Negreira was then an lively collegiate. He couldn't, as a Catalan, direct the Barcelona matches. Different instances. He now he not referees. However he's extra current than ever.
