This Saturday at 9:00 p.m. Celta de Vigo receives Real Madrid at the Balaídos stadium in a match corresponding to the tenth day of the league championship. An important date for the Vigo club, due to the always attractive visit of the current national and European champion, but also for the whites because this trip is one of the most complicated traditionally for them in the League.
To raise the temperature of the match, the Vigo team has launched an advertising campaign in which shakes the white club and other prominent actors in Spanish sportto whom he reminds them that they will never be able to obtain a title that Celta does have in its showcases.
As far as Real Madrid is concerned, the Galicians have designed a video in which a banner is displayed in the capital’s Plaza Mayor. On it you can read ‘Madridistas: there is a title you will never have’.
Going deeper into the campaign, the title that Celta refers to is the now extinct Intertoto Cupwhich gave access to the major continental competitions and the celestials conquered in the summer of the year 2000.
The text continues the joking tone, with several jabs at Madrid and the people of Madrid, but always with respect towards a club “with 130 titles in its showcases”, among which stand out “the brand new 15 European Cups that the famous Madrid museum.
This is the full statement from Celta de Vigo:
«This Saturday the 19th, Real Club Celta welcomes one of the biggest clubs in the world to Abanca Balaídos: Real Madrid. Without a doubt, the most successful club in the history of world football, with 130 titles in its showcases. Among them, the brand new 15 European Cups that preside over the famous Madrid museum and a total of 23 European trophies stand out.
Local historians have detected an anomaly, a curiosity when talking about Real Madrid and Real Club Celta. It is common to classify the white club as that team that “has won everything.” However, it is not entirely true.
Some may think that the celestial club’s showcases are “empty”, but the celestial museum displays a continental trophy that does not appear in the Real Madrid record. A title that teams of the stature of PSG and Juventus proudly display, in the same way that Celta does. Because the history of the Real Club Celta is more modest, but not devoid of greatness.
Aware of the importance that Madrid fans give to trophies, Real Club Celta makes available to all merengue fans who travel to Abanca Balaídos this Saturday our only European title so far and, at the same time, a continental title that The white club will never shine in its showcases.
The Intertoto Cup is an official tournament organized by UEFA between 1995 and 2008. It was in the summer of 2000 when the club won this title with a long-suffering victory in the final against Zenit Saint Petersburg. The goals of Karpin and Juanfran went down in history as the architects of the first and, for the moment, only continental title for Galician football.
RC Celta invites all Madrid fans to take advantage of this unique opportunity to enjoy up close the European trophy they will never have. To do this, a stand will be set up outside the Vigo stadium, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Saturday the 19th (Corner Grandstand with Marker).
Those Madrid fans who want to take photos, touch and feel this title up close will be able to do so before the match, and for free, invited by Celtismo. We encourage you to come. We are only 62 km from ‘Sanjenjo’.
Real Madrid is not the only actor in Spanish sport questioned in Celta’s campaign, which Tennis player Rafa Nadal and Formula 1 driver Fernando Alonso also hesitate.the former president of the Government Mariano Rajoy, the writer Manuel Jabois or the journalist Tomás Roncero.
