the “leprous fury” in the middle of the match with San Lorenzo

The classic date is behind us, however, in Rosario the celebration continues. And, in terms of folklore, the Scoundrel fans remind their Leper neighbors at all times. The thing is, Newell’s has not won the derby at home since 2008. Yes, he hasn’t beaten Central in his home for more than 15 years and the fans make him feel it.

This Sunday, when Lepra played a great game with San Lorenzo (the first half ended 2-2), the fans went crazy when a person paraglided over the stands of Marcelo Bielsa with a flag that read: “Son of Central” . In addition, little papers rained down from the air with accusations about the defeat against Rosario Central. Some tried to follow the winged man’s route to meet him on his landing. Gunshots were heard and there was running on the outskirts of the stadium.

The situation stole everyone’s attention and for a couple of minutes, the fans forgot about the game to insult the man who was flying over the sky.
