Cdr final at Camp Nou

[Barcaman]

With that many seats consigned to them maybe they count on their fans to outchant home crowd

The National Anthem will be booed by atleast 78k. I wonder how Javier Tebas is gonna stop that

The number of tickets is the same for both teams. The 2013 final, rm-atletico, was played in the bernabeu, and there were no problems.

Doesn't sound fair. Capital is doing their best to get themselves out of trouble (anthem) and create a feud between Basques and Catalans.

It's more than fair.

Bilbao fans will get exactly the same number of tickets that our fans will get. So, equal vocal support, and more money for Athletic. The Basques are not stupid, this serves their interests very well.

Another thing, is that Atleti actually won that final. Home advantage/disadvantage is not big deal these days, especially if you have the same number of fans as the "home" team.

Bilbao already conceded defeat agreeing to have us host it. They are just going for profits now. They haven't won at the Camp Nou since 2001.

Anything can happen in football.

Atletico beat rm at the bernabeu, in the 2013 cdr final.

But it is still YOUR ground. Familiar territory. It's still a place where they have conceded less goals this season?

The probability and state of mind is still present that the chances are a Barça win being at Barça's stadium. Home advantage is still very much a factor, sorry it just is. And yeah all things considered I can imagine the anthem will probably be booed

But it's still not good to say that it's a "guaranteed" win. Celta beat us at the Camp Nou this season for the first time in decades IIRC.

What I actually fear is complacency, because it will be at the camp nou.

I think the players will be under even more pressure to deliver the title to be honest.

Technically speaking, we will be the away team in the final because according to the rules of the tournament, the club that was established first gets to be the home team. As such, the Barca players will use the away dressing room and the Athletic players the home dressing room. Rather interesting and funny to be honest.

What? are we to wear the away shirt home???

I'm not sure. Presumably, since the kits don't actually clash in terms of colors, no, but it's possible that we may wear the yellow kits.

Edit: It's entirely possible that we may do what we did at the beginning of the season and play in our Senyera kits while Athletic play in their Basque flag kit.

According to Marca, it's the first time in the history of the CDR that a team playing the final at its own home ground will officially be the "visiting" side.
