Watch Part 1: Inside Catalonia’s Battle Over Independence From Spain
The country is home to the two top teams in the world, Football Club Barcelona, or “Barça,” and Real Madrid. Barça is a premier symbol of Catalan identity and pride, while Real Madrid is seen to represent the Spanish crown and Madrid’s rule over Catalonia. As the battle over Catalan independence hits crisis levels, AJ+’s Dena Takruri hangs out with Catalan soccer fans, for whom stadiums are a symbolic battleground over the future of this region.

To everyone living in every single country in this world besides the U.S. who is offended by my use of the word "soccer" versus "football," I sincerely apologize. I hope you enjoy the video despite that!

I’m fine with any nation getting independence, but I’m against more borders and border controls
you gotta love how that idiot fan thinks. instead of voting for what he believes, he's just not going to vote. He's the type where if his side lost he would have cried about it being unfair and rigged
It's Football

They want to become PSG and Bayern alone in Competitions otherwise Madrid will won Everything 😬

I Support Catalunya

Genuine question – Why are Barcelona players happy to play and celebrate victories of Spain, when they strive for independence?
Real Madrid, the 13X Champions League Trophies.
Barcelona, the 5X Champions League Trophies.
They tried to Unit the Islamic world parallel divide west and other states on the basis race, religion , culture and ideology.
Visca Barca visca Catalonia
Why not show Real Madrid side?
I thought Real Madrid and Barcelona was political AF. Then the USNWT appeared and I got sick of politics. BTW Football not soccer.
I fully support Catalonia independence from Spain viva Barcelona
The entire video is separatist propaganda
I don't wanna hear any espanyol traitor in anyway
Spain should use force on catalonia, to show them that spain owns them and who's boss, no independence, Long Live Spain
Joe biden is to stupid think about peace think about growth apart from usa

When did they talk about how people from Madrid feel it was all Barca
Lol real Madrid 's player cr7 won more major trophies than farmer Barcelona 🚜 🤣 😂 copa del rey dogs 🐕 😄
Have you seen how tiny Catalunia actually is!?
So horrible!
This has a lot of failures and it is so one sided!
More than half of what she said is wrong
Instead of talking with one side of the coin, try to talk with both of them
Why this wrong music?.
THAT STUPID INDEPENDENT SONG IS GETTING TO ME!!! I SWEAR IF I HEAR THAT SONG in-de-independence ONE MORE TIME!! I AM GOING TO PUT A DENT IN SOMEONES SKULL ON WHOEVER SAYS IT AGAIN!!!
The referendum was not a democratic act, it was an illegal act
Is not only Spain! everywhere football is not only sport but also politics, ideology, social-class and cities.
Catalonia is not Spain
The Catalans can never regain their independence, wanna know why? Because their Talisman is someone from Argentina. Dont fkin cry go and fight for your rights. No one gives you your land, you have to forcefully snatch it.
brurnette y're beautiful
First get right information and stop bringing nazi catalán propaganda.
