Even before a ball was kicked in Sunday's (10) massive El Clásico showdown between Barcelona and Real Madrid, things took an ugly turn off the pitch. In what was meant to be a day of high-stakes La Liga drama, both team buses were pelted with objects as they approached Camp Nou—but one of the incidents came with an embarrassing twist.

The Barcelona delegation's bus arrived at the stadium with a shattered window, and here's the kicker: it appears the club's own supporters were responsible. In a case of mistaken identity, some fans reportedly hurled objects at the home team's vehicle, thinking it belonged to their arch-rivals from Madrid. The irony is almost too much for a fixture already dripping with tension.

Of course, the Real Madrid bus didn't escape the chaos either. Footage shows a barrage of projectiles raining down on the visitors' vehicle as it made its way through the streets near Camp Nou, a grim reminder of the intense—and sometimes dangerous—passion that surrounds this rivalry.

For fans gearing up for the match, the incidents serve as a sobering prelude to what could be a title-deciding clash. While the focus should be on the football, these off-field antics highlight the fine line between fierce support and reckless behavior. As the dust settles, one thing is clear: even the most loyal fans can make costly mistakes when emotions run high.
