Real Madrid

Tonight's 22:00 CET Copa del Rey match against Malaga has been highly anticipated by fans. Dozens gathered at the Bernabeu ticket offices this morning to purchase one of the remaining 1,000 tickets still available. "We've come all the way from Colombia," said Leo, "It's our dream to see a live game. I'm a Real Madrid supporter to the death and I couldn't miss this opportunity."

Many Madridistas have used the Christmas holidays to come to Madrid and enjoy watching their team playing live. Michael travelled from Switzerland: "I have Portuguese origins and I like Real Madrid very much. I'm here on holiday with some friends and we want to have fun with some football. I couldn't leave without seeing Cristiano Ronaldo in action on the pitch."
