Telepizza and LaLiga created this vibrant mural. They unveiled it just before a Madrid derby match. The idea was to celebrate what brings fans together. The values of sportsmanship, teamwork, and respect.
Lawerta, a Valencian urban artist, designed El Mural del Derbi. His art captures the essence of the Madrid derby. It shows two players in Real Madrid and Atlético colors. They celebrate their shared love for football. The mural spans over 15 meters high. It’s hard to miss.
The location itself has become a point of interest. It is marked on Google Maps. Fans can visit and capture their own memories.
Two football legends, Fernando Morientes and Paulo Futre, attended the inauguration. Morientes, a Real Madrid legend, and Futre, an Atlético icon, embody the spirit of the derby. Both emphasized that no team is ever a clear favorite. They highlighted the values they defended throughout their careers. Values that Telepizza and LaLiga also champion.
Telepizza sponsors LaLiga. They also support LaLiga Genuine Santander. This is a league for players with intellectual disabilities. Telepizza has committed to employing players from LaLiga Genuine Santander in its stores.
El Mural del Derbi stands as a testament. It shows that even fierce rivals can find common ground. It is about the love of the game, not just the competition. The next time you are in Madrid, make sure you visit this place. Take a picture. Remember that passion unites.
