Catalan football has no answers and one question: what's next?

Catalan lawmakers voted yesterday to declare independence from Spain, as Madrid vowed, in turn, to “restore legality” and quash the region’s secessionist bid. Local media reported that police were considering postponing the encounter in the Catalonian-based city for security reasons amid the confusion.

“We are not aware of any news regarding this,” Geli told Cadena Cope. “We are working so that the game at 4.15 Sunday is a good one and that people can enjoy themselves.”
