The island of Mallorca became blaugrana the night before the league match between RCD Mallorca and FC Barcelona. More than 600 fans from all parts of the Balearic Islands gathered in this traditional area meeting. Directors of FC Barcelona Jordi Cardoner and Antoni Freixa, as well as Director of the Social Comission Enric Tombas were the club representatives on this event.
On the other side, Cardoner recalled that “if we have a great team is mainly because we have an important social mass just like in the Balearic Islands. The competition we have always won is the social one, no one can beat us on this matter”.
Former players such as Miguel Bernardo “Migueli”, Josep Moratalla, Enric Masip, or reputed Barcelona fans such as the patron of the Fundació del FC Barcelona Josep M. Maldonado did not want to miss this celebration.

Last night, those Barcelona supporters living in Mallorca started making noise to spread the blaugrana feeling all along the island.
