Foreign media reported that the fans of Madrid's "Real" today will bid farewell to Francesco Totti at the "Santiago Bernabeu" stadium with applause.
Today at 21:45 Lithuania time, "Real" will compete with "Roma" at home for a place in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals. In the first match, the "white team" defeated their opponents with a score of 2-0, so they have one foot in this stage.
F. Totti is not expected to start in the lineup, but he could receive his last minutes at the "Santiago Bernabeu" stadium at the end of the match. The 39-year-old footballer has great memories of this stadium, and if things don't go in favor of "Roma," "Real" fans promise to organize a special evening for the Italian legend.
"I always dreamed of this stadium," F. Totti said before his first visit to the "Santiago Bernabeu" fortress. "I admired 'Real' when I was younger. They had football authorities like Butragueno, Michel, Hugo Sanchez, or Bernd Schuster."
F. Totti's visits to the "Santiago Bernabeu" were also successful. Officially playing four matches at the "Real" fortress, the Italian achieved two victories, one defeat, one draw, and scored two goals.
Previously, "Real" fans bid farewell to Italians Alessandro Del Piero and Andrea Pirlo at their stadium, so this evening they are expected to receive respect and farewells from the opponents' fans for F. Totti as well.
