Barca vs Las Palmas game shouldn’t have held
By Boluwatife Ezekiel Olaleye
Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola revealed he was disappointed that Barcelona were made to play Las Palmas behind closed doors on Sunday.
The game went on amidst violence and police clashes, because of the referendum on Catalan independence.
Guardiola, who spent 17 years at Barca as a player, before managing the club between 2008 and 2012, has also played seven times for Catalunya.

“If you finally play that game, if you play, it’s done with the public, with all the consequences.”
