This Sunday, respect and passion for football at the Calderón
The Club, the players and the coaching staff are asking more than ever for the involvement of all the Atlético followers to cheer the team with passion, but with respect to the people, teams and institutions.
This Sunday, in the match against Villarreal, we want all the fans of Atlético de Madrid to enjoy their team with passion and to support their players cheering restlessly and with the the utmost respect for the rival.
All those members, supporters' club members and Atlético de Madrid followers who have always had an exceptional behaviour and who only want to enjoy the show, who are the vast majority of the Atlético fans, may enter the Stadium as normal, as they have been doing so far. However, given that the controls on the turnstiles will be reinforced, we ask all spectators to enter the Stadium sufficiently in advance. As usual, to enter the youth stand, you must present your ID card next to the non-transferable season ticket.
In addition, a number of special security measures have been implemented after the meeting held yesterday evening in the Government Representation Office in Madrid, which involved all the institutions that take part in the normal operation of a match.
With these measures, the aim is to ensure the normal development of the fixture, as well as reinforce the controls to identify, and expel all those who rely on the collective of a group or supporters' club, or individually, using Atlético de Madrid's name, colours or facilities to defend purposes or political, racist or xenophobic ideas that advocate violence.
Banners and flags representing Frente Atlético will not be permitted in the Stadium, as well as any other items containing symbols prohibited by the Sports Act or captions of a political, racist, or xenophobic nature, or slogans that encourage violence or infringe the dignity of natural or legal people.
Lastly, the Club, the players and the coaching staff demand now more than ever the involvement of all Atlético supporters to cheer with passion, but with respect for individuals, teams and institutions.
