A FC Barcelona's delegation including Directors Xavier Sala i Martín and Lander Unzueta, technical secretary Txiki Begiristain and the players Rafael Márquez, Juliano Belletti, Carles Puyol, Leo Messi and Gianluca Zambrotta visited the George E. Foreman wing for children in the MD Anderson Cancer Center, Texas. The visit to the children´s cancer center leaved no-one untouched. The personal situations of some of the patients are incredibly moving and the players spent as much time as possible with the kids and their parents.
The visit of the medical center has shown the caring side of Barca's pre-season tour and was a great opportunity to reaffirm that "Barca is more than a club".

They are such amazing guys, at their practice yesterday they kept trying to sign autographs, but the security guards wouldn't let them. I hope the play great today!
