The Guard bets on white

La Guardia is a town of 4,931 inhabitants embedded in an ocean of olive trees. Let us not forget that in the province of Jaén there are 67 million planted of this small evergreen tree brought in its day to Spain by the Phoenicians, so that each citizen of our country would have one and Even so, there would be 20 million olive trees left over (it represents more than 20% of world olive oil production). In addition to the liquid gold, in La Guardia there is an imposing castle, from the Al-Andalus period, and a magnificent Real Madrid club.

Last Friday its 40th anniversary was celebrated at the El Zorro restaurant, with the town overturned, starting with the mayor, Juan Morillo, culé confessed but that in his life he has gone more times to the Bernabéu than to the Camp Nou. The veteran Pepe Salguero was also at the event, who from 1981 to 1987 played in several of the famous comebacks, the most talked about against Inter.

The president of the club, Juan Conde, has it very clear in his baton for the derby: “With our Ancelotti and our Vini we are launched. We are going to beat Cholo 2-0 ”. So be it.
