Football at the highest level in Europe is a soul-sucking money fest when it is at it's worst. When it's at its best, 80,000 rise to acclaim one of their own after he has beaten cancer for the second time. Here's the Nou Camp welcoming back Eric Abidal last night.
Abidal came on with just over 20 minutes left in Barcelona's game against Mallorca. Barca continued their march to the La Liga title with a 5-0 victory. cesc Fabregas scored the first hat-trick of his career but the story of the game was the return of manager Tito Vilanova and Abidal after illness.
