"Here we are at the Pizjuan Stadium."
"Sevilla kicks off first."
"We can feel the heated atmosphere on-site."
The attendance for this match is astonishing. The passionate video shot by Sevilla's head coach before the match had its effect. The home fans in the stands are waving flags, chanting slogans in unison, supporting their team. Although everyone thinks Sevilla has a slim chance of winning, they remain steadfast in their belief in their team.
Real Madrid fans are equally unwilling to be outdone. Unfortunately, being in an away game, they find it difficult to compete with the fervent home fans.
Before this away game against Sevilla, Real Madrid and Mourinho are under quite a bit of pressure.
To avoid having his conflict with Valdano elaborated by the media again, he even skipped the pre-match press conference.
Meanwhile, a few days earlier, Sevilla had announced an aggressive video, filled with taunts towards Real Madrid and Mourinho.
