During the friendly match between Palermo and Manchester City, played at the Renzo Barbera stadium, a large banner appeared with the words "Palermo forever" in the typical font of the English band Oasis. Next to the writing, there were images of the Gallagher brothers, Liam and Noel, well-known members of Oasis, dressed in retro Palermo shirts, pink-black. This visual homage was a way to celebrate the strong bond between the band and the world of football, in particular with Manchester City fans, known for singing Oasis songs like stadium chants
