Aritz Aduriz accompanies Athletic on their trip to Seville to face the final of the Cup against Real. The former rojiblanco striker, a member of the Gaizka Garitano squad who managed to qualify last season for this Basque derby with a title at stake, is clear that the rojiblanco club is experiencing a special moment.
“If playing a derby is already a big thing, imagine playing it in a Cup final. It is probably the best final you can choose.. Unfortunately, a long time has passed with the hope that the situation would change a little and it could not be ”, Aduriz pointed out to the Athletic channel itself.
Aduriz insisted that “we all understood naturally at the time that the situation was totally unaffordable and that the game had to be postponed. We wanted to live a final with an audience and that all the people could enjoy this party, but it could not be. A pity that all of us who were participants cannot be here ”.
The departure and part of the Athletic bus route this morning in the direction of Loiu airport has led to a concentration of fans that is not recommended in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. The former rojiblanco striker has been clear and direct about it.
“It is evident that there is an overwhelming illusion, that we have been waiting for this for a long time and maybe we have all been carried away by the illusion of the moment this morning
to, I am the first, that perhaps I have transmitted it on social networks. A mistake. We have to become aware of when is the moment, be cautious and responsible with the situation and do things better and better. I hope this weekend is like that ”, Aduriz has made clear.
