With great motion (before 11:31 p.m.), FC Barcelona central defender Gerard Piqu (35, 6 La Liga appearances this season) played the last match of his career against Almeria (2-0) this Saturday in La Liga. And in front of the Blaugrana fans present at the Camp Nou, the Spaniard delivered a moving speech for his retirement.
« When you get older, you realize that life is about loving but also knowing how to leave. My love for Bara is so strong that I had to take a break. I am convinced that I will come back. A relationship with so much love, so much passion, it was just time to give us some space. But I was born here, I will die here, » Piqu promised.
The Catalan supporters have also validated this commitment by chanting the word « president ».
