On November 22, FC Barcelona made its way back to its spiritual home after more than two years of renovation. They hosted Athletic Club in the inaugural La Liga game at the renovated Spotify Camp Nou, winning 4-0. It was just like the good old days wherein Barcelona used to thrash their opponents for fun. Who can forget the period between 2008-2019 wherein teams feared to travel to Barcelona.
Camp Nou has been a popular
location for football fans worldwide since 1957 and an identity of FC
Barcelona. It was quite evident from the fact that 45,000 fans (the maximum
sitting capacity presently) turned up for the opening game.
The first game at the new
Spotify Camp Nou will not be an exception to the adage that "the first
time is never forgotten." The big picture of a game with many
"firsts" worth reviewing is the first game, the first win, and the
first celebration. The triumph truly signalled the start of a daring new era
for one of the most famous football venues.
