The 60th minute of Real Sociedad - Sevilla was running at the Reale Arena, under an exceptional atmosphere, when the referee authorized the substitution. The fans broke into a standing ovation to say an emotional goodbye to their captain. Asier Illarramendi headed to the sideline, giving thanks to his teammates for their love, to his family, and to the Txuriurdin fans who could see Illarra defending the Real Sociedad jersey for the last time after 13 seasons at the club: this is how legends are said Farewell.

And there was no better way for Illarra to say goodbye and end the season than with a victory. La Real bid farewell to a dream season. From start to finish, the txuri urdin have been playing wonderfully and without dropping out of the European spots. For the fourth consecutive year, Imanol Alguacil's team has done incredibly well. Europe is becoming a habit and now, the Champions League awaits.

The Reale Arena lived a real party today. First, the match, where the Txuri Urdin defeated Sevilla in an entertaining show decided with goals by Brais Méndez and Cho. Afterwards, the celebration in a stadium devoted to a team that has made them enjoy like never before this season. The match was great with the realistas dominating against a happy and successful opponent. Finishing with a win is always nice and la Real, that played better than the side from Andalusia, took the all three points to get a total of 71. Awesome.
