The Metropolitano Dreams of the Copa del Rey Final
Atlético de Madrid is one step away from playing in a highly anticipated Copa del Rey final. After overcoming previous rounds, Cholo Simeone’s team faces FC Barcelona in the semifinals, a formidable rival that will test the grit and fighting spirit that characterize Atleti.
But the possibility of a final is not the only exciting news for the Red and White fans. Due to possible delays in the works at the Estadio de La Cartuja, the initially planned venue, the Metropolitano is emerging as a real alternative to host the great cup final.
The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has already held talks with the Colchoneros club, assessing the infrastructure and experience of the Metropolitano to host an event of this magnitude.
If Atleti manages to overcome Barcelona and reach the final, the excitement would multiply by having the possibility of playing for the title at home, in front of their fans. A factor that would undoubtedly drive the team towards victory. The final decision on the venue is pending the official announcement of La Cartuja, but the excitement at the Metropolitano is palpable and the fans dream of lifting the Copa del Rey at their own stadium.
