BARCELONA, Spain (AP) – This “clásico” promises to be like none other.
Unfortunately, it may not be for the goals scored by Lionel Messi’s Barcelona or Karim Benzema's Real Madrid.
Catalan separatists are planning to gather in large numbers around the Camp Nou and possibly carry out actions inside Barcelona’s stadium on Wednesday when Real Madrid comes to play in one of the most watched matches of the season.
More than 25,000 protesters have agreed to gather outside Camp Nou, according to the on-line separatist platform Tsunami Democratic. The group says there will also be protesters among the spectators at the 99,000-seat stadium.
