Seville struggled to wake up to accept the Spanish team. Too many hangovers in football after an overwhelming season in one of the cities that live this sport with the most enthusiasts. The Andalusian capital experienced the victory of Betis, the Copa del Rey champions after winning a final held exactly in Seville, its two teams fighting to the end for places in Europe and full of 180,000 fans, in between Germans from Frankfurt and Scots from Glasgow, who flooded the city of Seville in the Europa League final.
But there is football to see and the national team is always an important incentive. Especially if he plays a great match like the Iberian derby against a great Portugal. It doesn’t seem to matter if the Red have already played in the first round of the European Championship last season in the Andalusian capital. The choice has always been to shoot and return to the twins of a football-divided city that went to Benito Villmarín.
But back in the day, in the ‘fan zone’ located in the center, next to the town hall, the atmosphere was somewhat related. “It’s the lack of promotion for this fight,” some fans complained. Despite this, on the terraces of the center began to see some flags and Red shirts. Also to the Portuguese fans, who because of their proximity were encouraged to accompany the Portuguese on a reasonably comfortable journey.
The speed of ticket sales also increased at the end, as the game approached, but not enough to fill Benito Villamarín. But those who came wanted to see the new team, where people from home stand out. Like Gavi, a Barça youth squad but also from Betis, who played for the first time at home to Benito Villamarín. The Barça midfielder is one of the most recognized at Verdiblanco’s stadium. They missed seeing Ansu Fati, one of the most acclaimed when it comes to concentration hotels. A footballer who also came to Barcelona as a youth, in this case from Sevilla.
Beyond the youth, fans turned to the team from earlier when the team arrived in a red-and-white tide that filled Iguazú Street, cut off to allow the bus to enter. But later on the field, a lot of green, especially in the grandstand area and in general. Almost as red, despite the fact that the Spanish flags were distributed to enliven Luis Enrique’s team. Of course, those present gave themselves to the team, but Ricardo Horta deprived them of the final prize.
