O jogo de sexta-feira da Euroliga em Paris também vai servir como um gesto para uma cidade que ainda absorve a agitação que seguiu aos protestos de 17 de outubro. O Valencia visita a Adidas Arena pela rodada 7 às 20h45 (8:45 PM) no horário da Europa Central, e os donos da casa estão preenchendo parte do ginásio com pessoas cujas vidas foram afetadas.
A lista de convidados, divulgada em nota do clube, inclui comerciantes cujos negócios foram danificados e suas famílias, estudantes do ensino médio e universitários em situação precária, bombeiros mobilizados durante as manifestações e as equipes de limpeza que lavaram as ruas depois.
O presidente David Kahn confirmou o plano e explicou o raciocínio.
"Não vivemos as mesmas realidades", disse ele, "…mas podemos compartilhar as mesmas emoções".
Uma sociedade que fala constantemente sobre divisão, acrescentou, pode usar um lembrete do que a mantém unida.
O contexto é uma quinzena de tensão na capital, com lojas danificadas e serviços de emergência e de limpeza sobrecarregados pelas concentrações.
