Spanish Cup Final. "We want a stadium full of white jerseys"

The slogan came out yesterday from Valdebebas where Mourinho and his players were training at the time in which many Spanish citizens were enjoying lunch. Casillas, as first captain, Sergio Ramos, Cristiano, Arbeloa, Xabi Alonso, Pepe and Marcelo led an initiative that the media notes 24 hours after the Spanish Cup Final in Valencia. "We want a stadium full of white jerseys. That all the fans of Real Madrid at the Mestalla Stadium, try wearing the white jersey of Madrid and all white symbols as possible. So we will see them clearly during the game and will serve as added motivation".

The request for help from the fans comes from the Champions League match against Lyon. Mourinho took the lead: "The Bernabeu can be even hotter". Against Tottenham, Real Madrid fans answered and was lived an amazing atmosphere, with 70,000 white flags that featured a special match. Mourinho will insist and will ask for a special support for the white fans in his appearance tonight at the Mestalla press conference.

For the captain, Iker Casillas, there must be greater complicity with the 20,618 fans that will support their team. Casillas has won everything; World Cup, European Cup, Champions League, Intercontinental, Leagues, Super Cups of Spain and Europe ... but never the Spanish Cup. "We hope that the 20,000 Real Madrid fans go to the field with something white to be visible and differentiate them from others. We have to win this Cup for the people that love Real Madrid".

The desire of the players will be fulfilled in large part because sales of Real Madrid jerseys corroborate it. According to data provided by the club, in 2010 were sold worldwide over three million jerseys. In this spectacular figure, one million were sold in Spain. The club also hopes that today or tomorrow, many "madridistas" traveling to the final will answer to the request of the players and will buy the jersey to be seen in the stands with the white that will contrast clearly with the darker sector of Barcelona fans.
