Marina Jiménez is a Malaguista fan from birth. Her tears during #VillarrealBMálaga, after Chavarría's 0-1 goal went viral, moving Malaguismo.
Málaga CF beat Villarreal CF 'B' last week at the Estadio de la Cerámica by 1-2, with goals from Pablo Chavarría and Rubén Castro. After we went 0-1 up, the TV cameras paid particular attention to the Malaguista supporters who went to Vila-real.
There we could see Marina Jiménez's tears of joy for the goal, filling the television screens with emotion. “I've become a bit famous,” said Marina at 'the temple', La Rosaleda, to MCFTV.
Having always been a Malaguista, she came to Martiricos as a child with her father and her uncle. Now, she has instilled her love for Málaga in her nephew, Pedro. This is her first year in the area located in Fondo Sur destined for the Animation Stand, although she has also been a season ticket holder in other areas of the ground. “I’m always cheering the team on,” he said.
Marina relates her unforgettable experience in Vila-real. “It was Good Friday, and my nephew said ‘let's go auntie.’ We arrived tired, but there was a great atmosphere, we welcomed the team and I saw the players’ attitude, giving everything from the outset. We were already very excited with Chavarría's goal.” The Loyal Malaguista fan underscores that “this attitude moved us. Against Cartagena I expect a great atmosphere from the get-go, and we’ll be there to welcome the team. We want to give everything so that they give everything too,” she added.
“The Malaguista never gives up,” Marina reminds us as she kisses the shield on her Blue and White shirt with the fans' number 12 on the back. She sends a clear message: “You have to believe until the end. Together we are stronger.” Malaguista, believe!
