Carles Puyol gives Barcelona Femeni motivational speech before UWCL Clasico

Carles Puyol was back at Barcelona on Monday and dropped in to have a chat with the women’s team ahead of their Champions League Clasico second leg against Real Madrid.

Barca Femeni will welcome their fierce rivals to a sold out Camp Nou on Wednesday for the second leg of their quarter-final, leading 3-1 from the first fixture in the Spanish capital.

Puyol, who knows a thing or two about playing against Real Madrid, spoke to the players about the match and offered some words of motivation.

And here’s a little of what Puyol had to say:

“This is sacred and I thank you for letting me be here, It’s an honor, I am a faithful follower of yours, I enjoy it very much.
