Pique can celebrate something as his FC Andorra win promotion

  /  autty

Saturday night may have been bitterly disappointing for Gerard Pique as Barcelona lost the Copa del Rey final against Valencia, but the Catalan centre-back was able to celebrate something on Sunday as FC Andorra won promotion.

Pique recently became the club's president and they secured a promotion to the Tercera Division, the fourth tier of Spanish football, with a 3-0 victory over UD Viladecans.

While Pique wasn't in attendance, his parents and siblings were there to witness the promotion.

Gabri Garcia, the coach, explained the centre-back's absence.

"Things didn't go as planned yesterday," he said.

"We hoped to celebrate with our president today, but it couldn't be.

"We'll hopefully celebrate with him soon."

This is a historic day for the club as they return to the Tercera Division after an absence of 17 years.
