Nearly a thousand fans will support their team in the game they will face Valencia CF in Mestalla. Of the 697 tickets that Che presence provided to the club from Elche, 430 were sold. Three buses left early in the morning from the Martínez Valero stadium. In addition, a large number of fans have traveled in their private vehicles, some of them even in Valencia since Friday.
When the fans of Franjiverdes arrived at Mestalla, they greeted the coach of the players in a big way with songs and encouraging words for the concentrated players. Almirón was one of the first to fall and was encouraged by the players.
The owner of Christian Bragarnik, chairman Joaquín Buitrago and several collaborators of maximum shareholders also did not want to miss the appointment on a summer afternoon in the capital of Turia.
