The ‘kalejira’ of the Anderlecht ultras towards Anoeta has been safely completed. The strong police force of the Ertzaintza has dispelled any idea of trying anything, keeping the arrival of the Belgian radicals as far away as possible from the area of the realist fans and the local ultras themselves. The only drawback is having walked them through the center of Donostia as if they were tourists, even without a police escort in the first section from the Boulevard to the San Martín Market area. Very different treatment from that received by realist fans in Europe, even in Nice.
The Belgian radicals have headed, with the classic banging and backfiring, from the Old Town of San Sebastian towards the Plaza Bilbao, a very crowded area. There they have been ordered to cross the Mundaiz Bridge to keep them together for a while near the National Police offices. Preventive measure to not make them enter Anoeta through Madrid Avenue, near the Ferrerías and Armerías squares, where a large part of the realist fans, including the ultras, do the preview.
The Anoeta roundabout was armored by cars and Ertzaintza troops, including drones. There was no one who tried anything there. Finally, with some delay, the radical ultras have appeared on Paseo Zorroaga, shouting “puta Sociedad, puta Sociedad”, in reference to the Real in the wrong way, with some lit flares but quite calm. The Ertzaintza escorted the group, which led a ‘kalejira’ in which normal fans also came, to the first checkpoint at their access gate. Tranquility within the abnormality generated by these elements. Soccer time.
