The support of its fans has also been vital in the campaign that Atlético Nacional has been carrying out in the Betplay 1-2022 League. This semester they have accompanied him at home 454,742 fans.
As usual, Green fans make a difference when it comes to attending the stadium to cheer on your team.
The King of Cups has the best average attendance in the entire country this semester (32,481 viewers).
The meeting that more fans attended (44,000) is the final against Tolima.
Meanwhile, the party to which the least fans attended the purslane was the commitment against Deportivo Pereira (20,257)which took place on a Friday, when many fans cannot attend due to work commitments.

For Patricio Arturo Cifuentes, a western member of the club, it is a necessity to go frequently to Atanasio. “There are many things that motivate me to go to the stadium, among them the love for the colors, for the shirt; that is a feeling like that of a father to a son or that of a son for his father; the stadium is our home and Nacional is the reason for an inexplicable love”, he expressed.
Naturally, those who accompanied the team throughout the semester could not miss the final. Not in vain, 44,000 people (approximate figure) meet on the maximum stage from Antioquia to watch the first game against Tolima.
