Barça were not alone on a cold night in Copenhagen. Some 2,000 FC Barcelona fans and members were in the Parken Stadium to see them draw on Danish soil.
Barça fans from Poland, Hungary, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany and Belgium, and not forgetting
Catalans and Spaniards, were in the Danish capital to cheer on Guardiola and his men. In total,
there were some 2,000 Barça supporters in the stands.
Fans from all around
It was amazing just how many different nationalities were there to show
their support for Barça. The largest community was almost certainly from Poland, whose Penya Polska
alone sent some 100 fans. Barça also have a huge support base in Denmark, and some 300 locals were
decked out in the club’s colours. Even before the game, the passion could be sensed by the
enormous expectations among the crowds gathering outside the team hotel.
40 fans with the team
On Monday morning, the Barcelona expedition flew out with some 40 fans on board for
Copenhagen. These formed part of a group of some 100 fans that travelled to Denmark from different
parts of Spain.
