Valencia to honour 18 fire-hit communities before Trofeo Naranja at Mestalla | OneFootball

Valencia will pay tribute to 18 localities across the Comunitat Valenciana affected by recent wildfires before the Trofeo Naranja. According to AS, the club has invited the mayors to the directors' box to represent residents who suffered the aftermath of the fires.

Valencia and Newcastle meet at 21:00 in the 54th edition, in theory the last to be staged at Mestalla. Moments before kick-off, commemorations will begin marking the start of the farewell to the Avenida Suecia stadium.

Doors will open from 19:30, with the team's arrival scheduled from that time.

Later, the squad will take to the pitch by lines, goalkeeper, defence, midfield and attack. They will then face the Tribuna for the customary team photograph.

Before kick-off, VCF Academy players will carry a canvas inspired by the Riba-roja del Túria mural on the Ruta d’Art Urbà, honouring the final season at Camp de Mestalla. A soprano and the band from la Vall d’Uixó will perform the Regional Anthem.

Valencia will wear their La Liga away strip, a design that honours the sea and coastal sunsets in blue tones with Mediterranean Orange detailing. After the match, club legend Vicente Guillot will present the Trofeu Taronja to the winner.
