The death of Carles Miniaro, a member of Barcelona’s medical staff, has led to the postponement of yesterday’s match between Barcelona and Osasuna. Joan Laporta announced the doctor’s death to the players on the field less than an hour before the match was scheduled to start between the Catalan team and Osasuna. Throughout the night, after the official announcement by the club, the first-team players sent messages of condolence to the family and friends of the deceased, expressing the pain they are feeling.<\/p>\n
The two teams were scheduled to play yesterday at the “Luis Companys” stadium in the 27th round of the Spanish La Liga competition.
\nBarcelona currently occupies first place in the La Liga standings with 57 points, while Osasuna holds eleventh place with 33 points.<\/p>\n
The date of the match will be determined at a later time, and Barcelona is scheduled to play the next round against Atletico Madrid at the “Metropolitano” stadium on March 16.
\nAccording to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional,” one of the players most affected by the death of Dr. Carles Miniaro Garcia is Spaniard Pedri, due to the close relationship he had with the doctor.<\/p>\n
Pedri, who collapsed in the locker room upon hearing the news, could not control himself and burst into tears. His teammates tried to calm him down from the state he was in.
\nThe newspaper also indicated that German coach Hansi Flick is deeply saddened by this shocking news and fears that Pedri could fall into a state of severe depression due to this blow at such a sensitive time in the team’s season.<\/p>\n
Pedri had mourned the team’s doctor, Carles Miniaro Garcia, on his personal Instagram account: “I still can’t believe it, a big hug to his family and friends.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
