BARÇA: THE LAST TRIBUTE TO TITO
Barcelona players continued their heartfelt tribute to their former coach, Tito Vilanova, during their first match at Camp Nou since his passing. In their clash against Getafe (2-2) on Saturday, the players donned jerseys with a message inscribed in Catalan: “Tito, forever eternal.” The club had previously announced that it would be “a farewell gesture shared between the first team players and the public.”
Before kick-off, a tribute video was broadcasted, evoking emotional responses from the fans who applauded loudly. The Camp Nou crowd then unveiled a “tifo” – a large banner or mosaic – bearing the image of the late coach during the Barça anthem, followed by a poignant minute of silence.
