Metropolitano on edge: Animation strike in the Cup return?
Atlético de Madrid is preparing for a crucial Copa del Rey semi-final second leg against FC Barcelona at the Metropolitano. After the thrilling 4-4 draw at Montjuïc, the team needs the support of its fans to reach the final.
However, the atmosphere could be affected by a possible animation strike by the Frente Atlético. The main rojiblanco animation group has threatened this measure in solidarity with the fans in the north stand, who could face sanctions after incidents in the last Madrid derby.
The Frente Atlético denounces external pressures and arbitrary sanctions, defending the rights of the members and expressing their support for those affected. They warn that the strike will only take place if the sanctions are confirmed.
The situation creates uncertainty about the atmosphere at the Metropolitano for such an important match. It is not the first time that the Frente Atlético has considered stopping cheering for different reasons, something that both players and Simeone himself have always tried to avoid for the good of the team.
