The Asturian coach Marcelino García ToraHe returns tonight (9 p.m., Vélodrome Stadium) to the hell of Marseille, where he lived a very delicate period as a coach when he presented his resignation due to threats from the most radical fans of the French club. According to the newspaper AS, the presence of Marcelino in the Villarreal expedition has changed some of the habits of the groguet club itself, in addition to the routine of the renowned coach himself. These are the keys to the strong security measures for the event, according to this information: Marcelino has at all times a member of the club’s private security who acts as an “escort.”
In addition, up to three members of the National Police have traveled with the expedition to coordinate Villarreal’s security device. Added to all this is that some motorized members of the Gendarmerie (local police) have escorted all the members of the Yellow Submarine from the airport: press, technical players… Security is capital throughout the day in Marseille.
Marcelino García Toral, a highly respected coach, submitted his irrevocable resignation last September in the face of threats and pressure from the Ultras. The ultra threat caused the departure of the Asturian coach, who months later returned to Villarreal, where he has now managed to lift the Yellow Submarine.
