‘Alea iacta est’. The die is thrown. 17,848 members will be lucky enough to have a ticket for the final on April 6 at La Cartuja stadium. A percentage that is lacking considering the high number of applicants, but nevertheless it will not be an obstacle for the movement of athleticzales in Seville to be large.
Considering the previous ones and, above all, the impressive form of Athletic and the realistic possibilities of winning the Cup, everything indicates that Bilbao and the capital of Seville will be colored in red and white.
Neither the long journey, nor the high price of accommodation, nor the lack of entry prevented thousands of fans from deciding to experience the atmosphere of the final in Seville. By bus, by car, by plane or by train. Anything goes in the city where Valverde’s team can make history again. Enthusiasm is at an all-time high and no one – least of all the youngest – wants to miss the chance to see champion Athletic.
After the efforts of the club, finally the ‘Athletic Hiria’ is located in the Andalusian Center of Contemporary Art and will be a meeting place for all travelers. What was first a nuisance for fans due to the lack of giant screens to watch the game, will finally become a bigger party due to the large space and services that will be offered so that each and every team of athletes will feel at home. A kind of advanced Aste Nagusi where the party will reach a crescendo as 10:00 pm approaches on Saturday and will reach its peak when the lions succeed in beating Mallorca.

Few teams have fans as loyal as Athletic, and few are capable of moving the amount of people expected in Seville (around 50,000 people), so the atmosphere is guaranteed. An atmosphere that will also be experienced at La Cartuja, despite the fact that it is not the best stadium to host a match of these qualities. 60,000 seats short for both teams, especially considering that not all tickets are for them. This, added to the fact that the stadium has an athletics track that keeps the public away from the playing field, the conditions were not ideal.
Despite this, the party and the atmosphere will not be forgotten. The fans are more than ready. Now we just have to wait and continue dreaming that the Barge will once again flow through the waters of the Nervión.
