Tiktukno: Summary of today's events in sports, 3.11 (Sport1)
End of an era in Barcelona, end of an era in Spanish football.
Gerard Pique, one of the most decorated stoppers in world football, published a video this evening (Thursday) in which he announced that Barcelona's home game on Saturday against Almeria at Camp Nou will be the last game of his career: "I always said I would not play for another club after Barcelona, and so it will be."
As you know, Gerrard's ability has drawn a significant opinion in recent years, and in the recent period he even lost his place in the composition of the team with which he is identified.
With the stories that have surfaced in his personal life in the background, including the high-profile breakup with Shakira, Fika suffered from an unstable relationship with his former partner and current coach, Xavi.

Despite all these, Pique is considered one of the greatest stoppers in the history of Barcelona and Spanish football in general.
The player who grew up in Barcelona returned to it in the summer of 2008 after short episodes in Zaragoza and Manchester United, and immediately became an integral part of one of the greatest teams in the history of world football.
Lafique made 615 appearances in the Barcelona uniform, in which he scored 53 goals.
With the team, he won eight Spanish championships, seven Spanish Cups, three European Cups, six times in the Spanish Supercup and three times in the European Supercup and the Club World Cup.
In addition, he also has one win in the English Championship, the FA Cup and the Champions League as a bench player for Manchester United.
Pique was also a part of the golden age of the Spanish national team.
Although he did not take part in winning Euro 2008, he was a regular player in the 2010 World Cup and Euro 2012, in which La Ruha also lifted the trophy.
