WELCOME TO THE ESTADI JOHAN CRUYFF!!! The home of Barça Femení and Barça Atlètic in the capital of Catalonia is the site of Barcelona’s opening home match of the La Liga season as the defending champions welcome Valencia. Barça still haven’t been allowed to return to Camp Nou, so their home opener will be played at the tiny and cozy home of the women and academy teams. The Catalans didn’t play at their best and dropped two points in the first three games of the season, so they’ll be hoping to perform better and get a big victory against a Valencia side they dominated last season. This should be fun, and you’re welcome to join us to follow and comment all the action. Vamos!

We don’t have a lot of rules here, but there are a few things to keep in mind when joining our matchday threads:
Even if the referee sucks or we lose the game, watch the swearing. It’s just unnecessary. Also, don’t discuss illegal streaming links. Those who do it will be warned, and those who post links will be instantly banned. Finally, be nice to each other. This is a Barcelona community and we don’t need to offend one another.
Have fun with the game! Forever and ever, no matter the competition, VISCA EL BARÇA!
