According to Globo Esporte Futebol, a strong downpour caused a leak of water in the press box, disrupting the work of journalists covering the match, which ended in a 5-1 win for Barcelona. The stadium, which was recently renovated, still has ongoing construction work and is operating at partial capacity.
The incident was captured on camera, showing a "waterfall" pouring from the ceiling directly onto the journalists' desks. The intense flow of water affected seats and benches, forcing the professionals to leave the affected area. Some rushed to collect their notes, phones, and equipment, while others tried to push back the accumulating water.
The match itself saw Barcelona dominate, with Raphinha scoring twice, and Karim Adeyemi, Lamine Yamal, and Gabriel Jesus completing the score for the Catalan team. Feyenoord's Sem Steijn scored the only goal for the visitors.
