Spain, Madrid
Santiago Bernabeu Stadium
The Merengue fans are chanting Hala Madrid, waiting for the start of the award ceremony. The epic song reverberates through the stadium, impressive in its power.
Meanwhile, the Atletico Madrid fans in the northwest stands of the Bernabeu can only endure the song while waiting. Every moment feels agonizingly long for the over 1,000 Atletico Madrid fans now.
Raul, as the captain of Real Madrid, will be lifting the trophy in the home stadium to display it to all the fans.
Before entering the field, Raul passed through the media area and was interviewed. When asked by reporters who would win this match, the living legend from Bernabeu simply said, "This is a match neither team wants to lose. The first game of the new season is important to everyone."
He didn't mention who would win, but his determined look and decisive tone clearly conveyed his thoughts.
