"It was an intense party, very competed. The final tie reflects what saw in the terrain of game. I am happy by the point achieved, go strengthening the leadership although it is truth that the Athletic us recortó two points. I am happy because it was not an easy party, had rained a lot and was difficult to control the balloon", has explained Bartomeu, that this past Tuesday fulfilled 55 years.

We are increasingly near that somebody defeat us, but am happy that it follow this so good series and that the fans was happy of how works the team".

It does not think that the celebration of Hammered went for so much controversy. "It is a celebration that a lot of players use when they do goals. It is not the first time that see that a player silencia a stadium. It is normal, have lived it in the Camp Nou and can remember to other players that have done it, also in other fields of LaLiga. It is a normal celebration of an important goal that means the tie to few minutes of the end. I hammered it has explained that was fed up of insults to his couple, that they put with a son", signals.

And it is entirely against of the insults received by Hammered and his family. "It was a player of the Barça or any player, like leader does not like us that in a stadium abuse him , try that neither pass in the Camp Mou although sometimes there are some minorities that do some chants that are not correct. The respect, the sportsmanship and the 'fair play' are very important. We encourage always to our fans to encourage to our team. The Barça does not go to do any complaint but expect that the corresponding sportive instances take note".

The Barça will struggle by all the titles

Finally, on the future of the team, showed happy by the dynamics that has purchased to the orders of Ernesto Valverde. "We are now very concerned and held responsible by the party of Mestalla. Valencia is playing well, is very situated in the League, is a young team. We carry the 1-0 of the gone but is not sufficient to be calm. It will be necessary to work a lot and will be a very contested party. They call us the king of glasses and would like us be in the final. Afterwards already it will come the League and the Champions".
