Here is What Laliga Had Threatened to do if Barcelona had refused to play against Las Palmas. War Coming to Spain!


Barcelona kept their 100% win record on Sunday night, as they defeated Las Palmas comfortably 3-0 at Camp Nou.
There were calls for the match to be postponed due to political tensions in Catalonia, but La Liga threatened Barca with a six-points penalty if the game wouldn’t be played.
Violence erupted in the streets of Catalonia, as the people were preparing to vote the referendum of Independence.
And Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde said after the game that the club’s decision to play behind closed doors was to show respect to the people injured in the violent protests.
“It’s been a different situation from other situations, at least in my career,” Valverde said.
“The club has tried to postpone the game, it has not been possible, and the club has decided to make an exceptional gesture to a situation that was being generated throughout Catalonia.
“It is a decision that has put the club in a difficult situation.
“Until shortly before playing we did not know if we would play.
“The president went down to the locker room, we spoke about it and in the end it is a consensual decision with the club.
