Amas, Idígoras, Álvarez, Uranga and Martínez They jumped at half-time of the match between Real and Valencia to honor the 50th anniversary of Real’s debut in European competition.
On September 18, 1974, Real Sociedad hosted Banik Ostrava at the old Atotxa. The players of that team recalled the historic milestone in front of the fans. “In Europe, Real was unknown until that match,” Uranga said.
Martínez, captain of the international match, also had the opportunity to speak: “It’s wonderful, especially for the fans.” He also wanted to clarify the pride he continues to feel for the Txuri Urdin club: “Very proud to wear the colors of the royal society and be the captain.”
Like Martínez, Idígoras also left a glimpse of the respect he has for Real Sociedad, as he nearly fell to the ground to avoid stepping on the shield.
This was not the only tribute of the night, at the beginning of the match a minute of silence was held in honor of the member who died in Real’s last match in Anoeta.
