Singular and festive because up to 15,324 fans attended that session, being Gavi, an 18-year-old teenager, the most followed player, transformed as he is now into a symbol of the new generations that follow Barça.
While Xavi walked pensively through the midfield of the Barça stadium chewing on the disappointment of the draw in the derby (1-1) with Espanyol, the players were throwing balls into the stands before making the traditional visit to various hospitals in Barcelona to give away toys to sick girls and boys. In addition to Gavi, there were two other footballers much praised by the Barca fans: Pedri and Lewandowski.
