The lawyer pointed out that they are still working to retain fans and are attending every game in droves to see the first team. “The family is going back to court. Grandparents, parents and grandchildren form the more than 45,000 “souls” who gather at the ‘monu’. Nights at the Monument are truly magical and demonstrate our greatness”.

Finally, Gilabert pointed out that each fan’s economy is different and the ticket value was designed for those on a lower budget. “Let’s not forget that football is a popular sport and everyone should have the opportunity to go there. Maybe for twenty soles it’s too little, but for others it’s not the case.. Let’s think about this brother ‘cream’, let’s continue like this, together until the end! When I was in college, I collected coins to go to the stadium to see the ‘U’. We must never forget where we come from, because someone is here today,” he concluded.
