A new age for Barça Women
Barça Women has once again demonstrated their superiority in Spanish football with a forceful 0-5 victory against Real Madrid in the first leg of the Queen’s Cup. The squad, directed by Pere Romeu, has made it clear that they are the favorites to reach the final, but a particular moment has captured everyone’s attention: the celebration of Salma Parallelo after one of his goals.
Barça dominance in the classics
Since its foundation, Real Madrid Women has been unable to defeat Barça in their clashes. The last Cup tie has not been different, with a stellar performance by Ewa Pajor, who scored three goals, and Salma, who contributed two more. This difference in the performance between the two teams has remained constant, and despite the efforts of Madrid to improve its workforce, its competitiveness is still limited.
The Salma gesture: a tribute to Ferran Torres
At a key moment in the game, Salma Paalluelo scored his second goal and celebrated it with a gesture that surprised many: he imitated the gesture of a Tiburo, a tribute to Ferran Torres’s famous celebration. This action is not only a reflection of the winning mentality shared by Barça players, but also symbolizes the union between the two sections of the club.
A connection beyond football
What makes this gesture special is the connection between Barça’s men’s and women’s football. Salma is not the first player to replicate the celebrations of a colleague; Others like Ewa Pajor and Alexia Putellas have made similar gestures, thus reinforcing the idea that Barça is a large family where all members support each other.
A promising future for the women’s Barça
With each victory, Barça women not only accumulate titles, but also build an identity that resonates with its followers. Beyond the field, their connection with the club and among themselves is what really makes them stand out. Fans and fans are looking forward to the next game at Johan Cruyff, where another great exhibition is expected and a celebration for a possible step in the final.
