IE Football Club Fundraising Takes You to the Santiago Bernabeu

As a part of our goal to reach enough funds to have the club running and to be able to provide fun for our members, we have organized a set of fundraising raffles for all of IE students. The winner gets two tickets to watch the Real Madrid team at the Santiago Bernabeu and here we have the story of the experience of the one of the past winners. We hope that more of you contribute to our team, helping us with the Club, and at the same time, winning these incredible tickets.

Our first winner was Carlos Tarrats and here you have his story:

"Knowing that you are a few blocks away from the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, it's a unique opportunity that is not present everyday. The IE Football Club, which I have to congratulate for the organization and energy, and the Student Office had a raffle to see the Real Madrid. I won the tickets and it was going to be 

my first time watching Real Madrid. It was a critical match because many variables were playing at the same time (cutting points against Barcelona FC, leading La Liga). Going out of the Bernabeu metro station towards the stadium with all the fans, and watching all the faces wishing and praying for a victory was an amazing experience. The game was great in terms of suspense and performance but..., sadly, Real Madrid lost the game. This is football, sometimes you win and others you lose and that's the excitement of the game, because until the game it's over everything can happen.

Thanks again to the IE Football Club for this incredible experience!"
