🎥 Greek invasion in Barcelona, Olympiacos fans make their presence felt | OneFootball

An impressive display of loyalty has materialized in the Catalan capital. No less than 2700 Olympiacos fans have traveled to Barcelona to witness the Champions League clash against FC Barcelona. This massive movement of the Greek supporters underscores their unwavering commitment to their team at a crucial moment in the top European competition. It is a clear message of support for the players led by José Luis Mendilibar.

The Greek team faces the third matchday of the Champions League with an urgent need to earn points. After two matches played in this group stage, the results have not been as expected, with a draw at home and a loss away. It is precisely this pressing need for points that has motivated thousands of Olympiacos fans to cross the Mediterranean to become the "12th player" in the stands.

The contingent of Olympiacos supporters has already made its presence felt in the streets of Barcelona, displaying a festive and passionate atmosphere, but without any reported incidents. The club's management and Mendilibar himself have positively valued this effort, acknowledging that feeling the support of so many fans in an away stadium can be a decisive factor in changing the team's dynamics in the continental tournament.

For the team, the challenge is immense; they will face one of the competition's favorites. However, with 2700 fans roaring from the stands, the squad has an extra incentive to try to achieve their first victory of the season in the group stage.

This spectacular journey not only marks a milestone in the current campaign but also sets a standard not just for what happens on the pitch, but for the wave of fans who demonstrated that football, above all, is a feeling.
