Last Wednesday Spain Ticket Bureau, a company dedicated to sell tickets for sporting and music events invited a series of bloggers - including myself among others such Albert Barra, Carlos Mantero, Ruben Temporal, Daniel González and Ángel Custodio who was my companion - to the Copa del Rey match between F.C. Barcelona and Valencia C.F. that was held in the Camp Nou.

So that I went to Barcelona keen on cheering my team, Valencia C.F. The night started frankly great, with a little reception in which we could have a bite to eat and refresh our thirsty throats. I must say we drank all we could wanted but they where a bit short on food. Hey, we the bloggers are hungry people!

After that and with a bit of rush we could find our preferential seats and the referee gave beginning to the match. The first half passed with no goals between the Valencian team and Barcelona, that didn’t take advantage of their ball possession. In the second half the match got a lot of play, with as many efforts on goal by either side as the goalkeepers and defenders saved. Eventually Villa made the first goal for Valencia, which lasted until the very end despite the persistence of Barcelona players - especially Messi -. Finally, Xavi succeeded at making a goal in the fourth minute of added time to gain a 1-1 home draw that leaves open the qualifying round for the match in Mestalla.

From our seats we could see perfectly the whole field. More pics by Ancude in this photo set.

With no question it was a great experience; Barcelona impressed me in many ways, I met some people whose blogs I usually read and to see more than 90000 people going crazy after Barcelona goal left me stunned.
