Athletic Bilbao 1-0. Full strength Barça, injuries and suspensions
permitting, with the exception of the goalie; not Valdes but Pinto,
whomever he may be.

Basques v. Catalans.

A no-win situation.

There's quite a lot of solidarity between Basques
and Catalans. Cataluña es España.

PreGodDamnCisely. Tell that to the Busquera as well. (though obviously switch the word Cataluña.)

Looks like Barca are on for the treble.

Weren't Bayern Munich when we beat them in '99? :happy

For those who care, both Bilbao and Barça supporters
booed the national anthem, with Juan Carlos I in attendance.

I've never particularly appreciated these shows of regional
nationalism and, while the presence of his majesty the King
shouldn't deter them from showing their true feelings, if they
feel disdain for the Cup, maybe they should have stayed at
home.
