The president of Seville, Joseph Castrohad the best response to its counterpart in the eintracht frankfurt, champion of the Europa League by defeating Rangers in the final at Sánchez Pizjuán, a stadium that he disparagingly described as “Mickey Mouse’s”. The Sevilla top leader was clear in his response when this comment was mentioned to him on the ‘Movistar’ microphones.
“Mickey Mouse’s stadium has six Europa League Cups in the center of the anteroom, so it’s a Mickey Mouse field but with six European titles,” Castro said without giving much importance to Peter Fischer’s rude comment.
“Well, I think these are tense days, in front of your audience. They are things that must be forgiven, surely he has not said it with bad intention, ”the Sevilla president fastened.
Fischer addressed his fans at the Prado de San Sebastián before the final, in a harangue that did not go unnoticed. “200,000 fans wanted to be here today. But 190,000 are sad because we play in this Mickey Mouse stadium,” said the German manager.
Only about 10,000 fans of each of the finalists could be present in the final, since the Nervionense stadium has a capacity of 44,000 spectators and UEFA appropriated more than 20,000 seats for its commitments and sponsors.
