River fans at the door of the club premises in Ezeiza. Stupendous.
“Olelé, olalá, Juli is from River, he is not leaving from River.” There was no cold or dark to extinguish the passion, the love for that young man from Córdoba with the nickname of superhero and with football powers bordering on the supernatural. For that marker who filled them with joy and pride for being a registered trademark product made in Núñez. Not even the tension and uncertainty of tomorrow’s rematch against Vélez for the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores overshadow the melancholy and the feeling of a very difficult defeat to overcome. Nearly 100 River fans came to Camp de Ezeiza on Monday to take a photo, sign or just say hello to Julián Álvarez just hours before his last role on the team Marcello Gallardo and his subsequent – and immediate – departure for Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.
The starting time of the training was scheduled for 16:00, although shortly before the arrival of numerous groups and families it began to be noticed. Most of those fans, with the 9 of the Band that the Spider will use tomorrow at the Monumental for the last time, at least in this phase of his incipient career. Already with the setting of the sun and after having spied every movement of the champion from afar, the faithful received the long-awaited gesture of Julián, who got out of his car to share 15 unforgettable minutes with all of them.
Crazy for Julian
The reward and the excitement of the insistent Delfina
