FC Barcelona is more than a club, and the union between the men’s and women’s teams is a clear example of this. The players support each other, celebrating together the achievements each one accomplishes. This sense of community is reflected in the way both teams cheer and support each other, beyond their respective categories.
A Direct Message to the Referees
Last Sunday, FC Barcelona’s men’s team achieved an important victory against Atlético de Madrid at the Metropolitano Stadium by 2-4. This victory was followed by millions of culés from different corners of the world, but one of the most notable reactions was from Aitana Bonmatí. The player, currently considered the best footballer in the world, didn’t hesitate to share her opinion about a controversial play that occurred during the match.

On her Instagram account, Aitana posted a story showing an image of the final result of the match and wrote a brief comment: “With hands included.” The message referred to Atlético’s second goal, scored after an unpenalized handball by De Burgos Bengoetxea. The play quickly became a topic of conversation, and Aitana didn’t hesitate to express her disagreement with the referee’s decision.
Aitana and Her Passion for Barça
Although Aitana’s message had a direct tone toward the referees, what really stands out is the passion and commitment the player has with FC Barcelona. Aitana Bonmatí, who has been an essential piece in the success of the women’s team, closely follows all the matches of the men’s team. It doesn’t matter if it’s a League, Cup, or Champions match; the player is always aware of the results and, when she can, enjoys the matches with friends and family.
Since she was little, Aitana has been a great supporter of Barça, and her love for the club is evident both on and off the field. She is a star of women’s soccer and a great fan of men’s, which is noticeable in her enthusiasm for every victory. Like other players of the club, Aitana shares the sense of unity that exists between the first men’s and women’s teams.
A United Club
FC Barcelona has managed to create an atmosphere of collaboration and mutual support among all its players, regardless of their gender.
This synergy is reflected not only in sports successes but also in the way club members cheer and celebrate together. The victories are not just for one team or a group of players, but for everyone who is part of this great club.
