As captured by Marc Duch on Twitter, Barca's home arena Palau Blaugrana had a major flaw during the match as the venue's roof was visibly leaking.

It can be seen that water was dripping from multiple places on the roof. In one instance, the water was squirting right onto the spectators.

Palau Blaugrana was opened more than 50 years ago in 1971. The arena's main court area was renovated in 2016.

The building of a new arena, Nou Palau Blaugrana, has been in the works for multiple years now but no concrete work has been done. With the cost estimated to amount to 420 million euros, Barca is currently looking for ways to finance the operation, El Espanol reports. By the current project, the new venue should host around 15,000 spectators in basketball matches.
