Loved it. Great game and a high standard of football. Valencia threw it away 2nd half through just completely easing off I thought because it was clear as day they had more talent all over the pitch. I was surprised by how pleasant and 'cheery' the atmosphere was coming out of the ground, if that was a Toon game people would be rotten as f*** for throwing a game away so sloppily. Everything is just a lot more laid back, I gathered.
Your whole country is great, tbh. Obviously the economy is in a terrible position right now but in terms of lifestyle, food, weather etc everything is brill.
To be frank the team got booed off the pitch for lesser things last year, but with Emery gone they probably want to cut the team some slack. Mestalla usually has a very cheery atmosphere anyway.
I never understood why they had it in so much for Emery. Thought he did a decent enough job on the whole, apart from the nasty exit from the Europa.
I was meant to go to Betis - Atletico too, but it got moved to a Monday (after we'd left). Just looking now and it looks like it it was moved completely for the Super Cup anyway.
