La independència a través del futbol?

Mentres sigui una questió des de 1997, acabo d' assabentar-me de la existència del equip i pensava que us seria interessant. Ara, sembla que hi ha altra intenta de jugar un partit oficial amb altres països. Pot l'equip de selecció Catalana ésser la clau de la independència Catalana? Si tenguin èxit de fer un partit oficial, què vol dir de l'equip de selecció de Espanya? Hom pot ser membre dels dos?

While it's been a question in the air since 1997, I've just found out about the team and I though it would be interseting to you, too. Now, it seems that there is another push to play oficial games with other countries. Could the Catalan national team be the key to Catalan idependence? If they are successful in playing an official game, what does that mean for the Spanish selection? Can you be a member of both?

It looks like the stakes have been raised in the fight for independence through sports. This reminds me of a while ago when the national Catalan Roller Hockey team faced a similar challenge in trying to join the international association of roller hockey teams. Apparently Spain *literally* played hardball and mobilized/extorted most members of the federation at a meeting in FRESNO to vote against Catalunya's bid (they lost 125-43).
