Finally, Del Nido Carrasco highlighted the work of Manuel Ruiz de Lopera during his time as president of Real Betis. “It was part of the history of Betis and Sevilla had to be present yesterday. I always remember the positive things and it comes to mind how well Betis led by Ruiz de Lopera behaved when we lost our Antonio Puerta and we had to be yesterday to pay tribute to his figure,” he concluded.
