Formerly teammates within the Spanish selection, Raul and Torres found themselves as opponents on the bench this Monday.
Atlético B, coached by Fernando Torres, and Real Madrid Castilla, led by Raúl González Blanco, drew 1-1 in the Madrid “mini-derby” of Group 2 of the Primera RFEF on Sunday. Adrián Niño opened the scoring in the 24th minute for the Colchoneros at Cerro del Espino and Gonzalo García Torres equalized in the 45th minute for the Merengues.
Raul and Torres rubbed each other
El Chiringuito cameras followed Torres and Raúl throughout the match. “It’s not a foul, is it?” Raúl complained to the fourth official, to which Torres replied that “they are used to being told anything.”
In the final minutes of the match, Torres was very critical of the referees: “Do you know what’s going on? It would be the second and you don’t give it to him. It’s a box and you’re not giving it to him. Put him out? You’re not going to put him out? “.
After the match, however, the two coaches quickly forgot this sequence. Instead, they seek to provide support to the victims of DANA. Torres said: “We want to provide all our support to those affected, because we are going through very difficult times. We have been touched by friends, team players and family members who are going through difficult times… We want to send them all our support. We want to give them all our support. We feel it, as does the rest of the country. You never know when a disaster of this magnitude could happen to us and any help is invaluable.”
