We talk about the huge Granada win that erases doubts the team was having due to not being able to win in the last two matches. Getafe and Valencia created doubts for the team that Granada helped ease the pains. But right around the corner is the mother of all challenges. Receiving archenemies Real Madrid is the first of the 3 big steps at the end of this tough season end.
Also the mother of all fan experiences. Our host
Ricardo Menéndez tells us about the unbelievable day trip Coca-Cola and Atlético de Madrid prepared for a selected group of Atleti bloggers. From Neptuno fountain they were toured and visited the museum, the store, received customized kits, played ball with Juanfran, met legends Caminero, Germán Burgos and Adelardo, celebrities like Carlos Jean, visited exclusive areas like the dressing room, held up cups like if they were team captains, dressed in red and white kits...what else can we add? Simply unbelievable.
