Eric García suffers nasal fracture

Barcelona centre-back Eric García left the pitch late in the 3-3 draw against Club Brugge after a clash of heads with Romeo Vermant. Overnight tests confirmed a partial fracture of the nasal bones, and the medical staff will decide if he plays soon with a protective mask or rests until after the international break. 

¡Vamos a México!

Live fast, travel often. Not exactly how the quote goes, but for Barcelona Femení the tail end of a domestic season in Spain and capping off European competition as champions means more time for training and less thinking for games. In this case, "l'equip" (the team) are heading across oceans and over borders to arrive 9,425 km away, or 5,856 miles away. Barcelona will be facing Mexican powerhouses Chivas Femenil in an international friendly at Estadio Akron near Guadalajara. And the people of Mexico are ready.
