The
Atlético de Madrid
will receive this Thursday at S.D. Huesca in the Metropolitan Wanda. The Aragonese club has announced that its captain will wear a spectacular bracelet created for the occasion, in tribute to the mattress club.
It is a practice that the Barça team has been doing for quite some time, for which they wear personalized bracelets with motifs in tribute to the clubs they face away from their stadium, The Alcoraz.
“With this design we want to highlight the curious history that links Federico Garcia Lorca with the Atlético de Madrid. It is a historical tour guided by the particular style of drawing that the artist used in his visual poems or poetic drawings ”, explained the Aragonese high club in its communication.
The poet from Granada had episodes of relationship with the mattress painting. In the Student's residence coincided, for example, with Manolin Merediz Y Ramon Arguelles, a couple that would be present on the staff of the Athletic champion of 1928. Then, on the tour of his theater company, La Barraca, coincided with Rafael Rodríguez Rapún, a student of the School of Mines, which had been part of the Youth of Athletic, who died in the civil war and who was found a card of the mattress team.
The common thread of the poet murdered in the Civil war, serves to, through some beautiful drawings, make a lot of references to the Athletic. From the first stadium Metropolitan, to the current one, going through the Vicente Calderón; Adelardo, player who has worn the ‘rojiblanca’ the most times, the Intercontinental won by the mattress team; the seven stars of the flag of the Madrid's community; some ‘shoes’ in reference to Luis Aragones; the double of the team Antic or an Indian headdress. Also references, obviously, to Garcia Lorca, the Barrack or the trench where Rodriguez
Rapun a year before the murder of the Andalusian poet.
