Incredible! FC Barcelona held a first team training in an open doors session at the Miniestadi and was watched by a stunning amount of 12,000 people., going to show that interest in the squad is as high as ever going into the new year.


Many of the faszinating crowd of 12,000 spectators were children, who were able to see their idols live. Cheering, Screaming and applauding during the training session and especially when a goal was scored increased the level of noise immensely during the training session.


The players entered the pitch of the Miniestadi after the scheduled 10:30 and were completely surprised to see the stands nearly completely filled.


Unfortunately Ronaldinho, Deco, Zambrotta, Thuram, Oleguer, Gio and Motta were absent for different reasons but Rafa Marquez was back.
Javier Saviola entered the pitch late and was greeted by Frank Rijkkard and a very special applause from the huge crowd.


This was a fantastic morning for the kids and should be repeated soon!
