Jose Luis Martinez-Almeida, Mayor of Madrid and follower of the Atletico Madridreceived on Monday real Madrid basketball at the City Hall of the capital after the conquest of the ACB by the white team.
An official reception after which the alderman spoke about the controversy with Courtois and the complaint of a certain sector of Real Madrid who understood that the Cibeles Madrid scarf was removed very soon after the celebration of the Champions League for the football team.
It should be remembered that Almeida publicly disfigured Courtois, with the goalkeeper present, who before the Champions League final assured that he was now “on the good side of history”, something that hurt Atlético fans, in whose team he played Belgian in the final of the 2014 continental competition.
“Courtois made me enjoy a lot, a lot, for a few years. That yes, only one thing Courtois, allow me to tell you with love: on the good side of history we are also those who cry with you and by your side in Lisbon. We all fit on the good side in this city,” the mayor said then.
And yesterday, after the act with Madrid de Baloncesto, Almeida was asked about The beach bar about this issue. “Courtois and I… Yes. We are on the same side of history, with which we have made peace, there is no problem,” said the alderman.
THE SCARF OF CIBELES
Regarding the other ‘controversy’, that of the Cibeles scarf, he was somewhat surprised by the commotion, and said, “I knew you were going to ask me. One…Do you really believe that the Mayor of Madrid knows when he puts on or takes off his scarf? Neither in Cibeles nor in Neptune last year. But since I knew that sooner or later you were going to catch me, I asked and they told me that the scarf in Cibeles depends on the fact that you have to mount and dismount the catwalk. At the moment in which the walkway is dismantled, the scarf must already be removed so as not to have to put a machine back in. Tech stuff. In Neptune, the scarf was on all night because the team did not go to the source due to the pandemic, and it was left as a tribute. And I did not participate in that decision, I can guarantee it.”
