Fans of Spanish La Liga club Real Betis continued their annual tradition of giveaways and covered their pitch with 14,000 toys for underprivileged children.
In Sevilla’s last home game of the year, fans are encouraged to bring a soft toy and, when the referee whistles for half-time, sprinkle it on the grass.
The Real Betis Foundation, which is managing the events, has already started delivering the gifts to different charities and associations in the city and will continue to distribute them nationally and internationally over the coming weeks and months.
Among the recipients who have already received toys are the Spanish Refugee Aid Commission and the child beneficiaries of a Foundation-supported project in Equatorial Guinea led by former player Benjamín Zarandona.
In a Tweet, the club thanked all the fans who took part, calling the moment “spectacular”.
