El Molinón began to become a boiler almost two hours before the ball started rolling. Hundreds of red and white players were waiting for the team bus at the confluence of Luis Adaro Street and Torcuato Fernández Miranda Street. One more week, spectacular football atmosphere to enjoy the preview. The Sporting bus turned and was met with a large chorus of throats and twice as many hands pounding on the sides.

Welcome to the team bus before the game.

Cans of red and white smoke, flares, bass drum and many scarves in the wind. The bus slowed down and moved slowly between hundreds of fans and under a single shout: “Gijón, we are going to win.” Also a huge banner, displayed as the expedition passed, which read: “Let’s go Real Sporting, champion.” Everyone, fans and footballers, knew that the clash against the leader had the added value of being the last of the year at home. There was no other thought than to say goodbye in style.

The day also had a solidarity color.

Even the Veterans Association joined the extractions with a wide representation, among which were Joaquín, Iñaki Eraña or Caco Morán, a member of the coaching staff, among others.

In the front line of the presidential box, in days in which the negotiation for the signing of the protocol for the new Molinón project is ongoing, Vice Mayor Ángela Pumariega attended accompanied by Sports Councilor Jorge Pañeda. Also José Ramón Cuetos Lobo, president of the Asturian Football Federation. The other match, that of El Molinón and the 2030 World Cup, will continue to be played during the month of December.
