The albinegro spirit was proudly represented at the celebration of Spain's World Cup victory. Mario Barberá and Iván González, two fans from Castellón with strong ties to local football, traveled specifically to Madrid to take part in the festivities held last Monday at Plaza de Cibeles.
Both attended carrying a flag of CD Castellón, which they displayed at the heart of the celebration to mark the presence of the 'orellut' fanbase on a day that will be forever remembered in Spanish football.
The Fans
- Mario Barberá, 14 years old, plays for the Cadet A team of Sporting de Castellón.
- Iván González, 44, a friend of Mario's parents, coach of Odisea, and a regular volunteer for CD Castellón, where he helps by holding one of the banners on match days at Castalia.
A Decision Made on the Spot
The idea for the trip arose immediately after the final ended. As they later explained to Mediterráneo, both decided to travel to Madrid solely to attend the celebration and were the only members of the expedition.
"We thought about it when the match ended and we went to Madrid on purpose for the celebration," said Mario, who clarified that he went with Iván, his former coach and a person deeply connected to the Castellón football scene.
The two fans took several photos and videos during the festivities, appearing in all images proudly holding the Castellón flag among the crowd gathered in the square of the Spanish capital.
