Barcelona celebrated its 125th anniversary with a special event and memorable performances.
During the celebration, Barcelona’s team will wear white shorts when they play against Las Palmas. This choice of color is a tribute to the club’s early years when they first started. It connects the present with the club’s rich history.
Guardiola, who learned a lot from Johan Cruyff, sent a heartfelt video message for the event. In a surprising twist, he also sang a song called ‘Aniversari’ by Manel, a well-known Catalan singer. The song is about celebrating birthdays, and many found it fitting for the occasion.
However, not everyone was impressed. Xavi Hernandez attended the event, but it was his partner, Nuria Cunillera, who caught everyone’s attention. Her reaction to Guardiola’s singing quickly went viral, showing that she wasn’t a fan of his performance.
Lionel Messi also contributed to the celebration with a video message. He spoke a little bit of Catalan, saying “Volem la pilota,” which means “we want the ball.” Even after living in Barcelona for many years, Messi still has a strong Argentinian accent and identity.
The night was filled with memories and emotions, celebrating the club’s long history and its impact on the world of football. Fans and players alike enjoyed the special moments, even if some reactions were more entertaining than others.
