In a bizarre turn of events ahead of the El Clásico at Spotify Camp Nou, Barça supporters mistakenly showered their own team’s bus with objects, mistaking it for that of Real Madrid due to thick smoke from flares. The incident occurred as the two buses made their way through the crowd in the Les Corts neighborhood, where tension had been building for hours.

As the bus carrying Hansi Flick and his squad approached the stadium, a flurry of items—including bottles and other debris—rained down on the vehicle. Some fans, confused by the smoke and the intensity of the atmosphere, aimed at the wrong target. The Barça bus ultimately arrived at the stadium but was left battered, with dents in its bodywork and several broken windows. The Real Madrid bus suffered a similar fate, also sustaining shattered glass from thrown objects—a sadly familiar scene in high-stakes Clásico encounters.
Despite the chaos, no further serious incidents were reported in the buildup to the match. The game itself carried immense weight: Barça could clinch the La Liga title for the first time in their history by defeating their eternal rivals on home turf. The unusual pregame episode only added to the drama of an already electric night in Catalonia.
