It is past midnight. Sunday has already faded away, Monday is here, and with it a new day, a new week, soon a new year.
Time is speeding up. Each season often ends up resembling the previous one. Not this one.
It is impossible to consider that the last five days spent at Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona, in Catalonia, were considered “classical”.
Starting Wednesday, the tears ofAri Sánchez They welcomed us at the press conference. In an environment usually smoothed over by the imperatives of communication and decorum, the humanity of the local player, forced to turn the page with her historic partner, hit us hard.
This Sunday, it was once again Ari's tears that accompanied us to the match for third place.
This week is also the week of the press conference between Paquito Navarro et Jon sanz, responding to each other almost word for word. Paquito says it, Paquito admits it: the separation, decided by his partner, affects him.
Here too, the ice is broken. Emotion is allowed. We are told the truth. We understand. We listen.
Thank you Paco. Thank you Joni.
Martín Di Nenno thanks his teammate francTheir story is unique. It won't continue in 2026. Again, it's beautiful, sad, and poignant all at once. You can get back with your exes… then leave them again almost immediately.
Bea González It made us cry too. The loss of her grandfather has deeply saddened her. She plays for him, because that's how he would have wanted it.
Thank you Bea. Thank you for him.
Claudia Fernández was left by Gemma Triaywho had become number 1 in the meantime. Now it's the Andalusian, Bea, who will set out to conquer the summits with Paula Jose MariaAnother emotion.
The crazy and fusion project between Andrea Ustero et Sofia Araújo It also comes to an end. The tears return, the hugs multiply.
Thank you Sofi. Thank you Turkey.
Gallant swears by Chingotto, despite sometimes lagging statistics in the biggest matches. Agustín

Thank you, friends.
