In the prolegomena of the basketball classic there was a bit of everything. On the one hand, the expected pressure against the eternal rival, a Real Madrid who is always eagerly received in the Palau. And, on the other, the political demands , by means of banners, no more than the usual ones, but that were seen on this occasion accompanied by a mosaic that, in the backgrounds, evoked the colors of the estelada .
Everything invited to think that in the Palau the desire for revenge would weigh more than the political demands. The fact that the doctor of Real Madrid, Miguel Ángel López , described the azulgrana as "the biggest rats in the Euroleague" was taken into account by the Barcelona fans. For that reason, the white set was received with a deafening whistle, no matter how much the enclosure was not even full, as soon as it jumped to the track to warm up. The prelude to what was going to happen throughout the duel.
In the stands, while, initially, there were no more visible banners than usual. In each fund, one claiming freedom for the prisoners of the process , with its corresponding yellow bow. And, at the top of the site, another in very eloquent English: Welcome to the Catalan Republic . Everything, also truffled with some stelae.
More surprising, however, was the mosaic that was shown in the shortly before the start of the game. On the sides, with the colors azulgrana. In the funds, with those of the senyera, although, yes, with the central part of blue color. An image that reminded of a star, but without a star. Of course, there were also bad sounding words against Real Madrid. And a suffocating pressure that implied the promise that he would keep each time the whites had the ball in their hands.
