Two Brothers Travel 5000km By Car To Tbilisi Without Barça Tickets

Brothers Ivan and Xavier Aracel have a curious superstition. Since the 2009 Champions League final in Rome, they have travelled in their own car to all of the finals that Barcelona have played in. The European Super Cup is no exception.

They don't use a normal car, but rather a vintage Citroen 11 with Barcelona's colours.

With this mode of transport it is rather difficult to miss them, and they have travelled a total of 4,800 kilometres in order to arrive in Tbilisi.
The pair left Barcelona on the 3rd of August, and have since travelled across France, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Turkey and Georgia. The Aracel brothers arrived in Tbilisi on Monday, after a week of passing through Europe.

What is the most strange thing, is that the two fans didn't have a ticket for the game. However, the club said they will do everything possible in order to get them some for the game on Tuesday night.

Ivan and Xavier will embark on another 4,800km journey. They are already planning a route to Tokyo, where Barcelona will play in the Club World Cup in December.
