Zurriola revels as Real’s triumph unites three generations | OneFootball

Real Sociedad did more than win a final last night, it turned the evening into a shared experience from Donostia to Sevilla. The triumph was built as much in living rooms and tense silences as on the pitch.

According to Diario Vasco, supporters gathered by Zurriola beach in San Sebastián on Sunday to welcome the team bus, still processing an emotional high. Families spoke of a week of nerves that made kick-off feel a long time coming.

Aitor Irigoien said the anxiety lasted days and he split the match between his in-laws’ home and his own. Susana Fernández Bravo never doubted the outcome, heard the first goal from her terrace, then rushed to message her family WhatsApp group.

From Pamplona, Alejandra San Gil described heavy nerves and strain. In Donostia, María Egaña felt like reliving an unfinished final with tension to the very end. Some, like Oyarzabal, could barely watch, drifting between rooms to cope.

José Ramón Rojas shared it across three generations with his wife, daughter and grandson while his son was in Sevilla, calling it unforgettable. Ángel Beltrán linked the night to Gijón’s title memories and a rare explosion of joy, Real again spanning eras.

The final whistle unleashed celebrations across homes, streets and squares, with shouts and hugs releasing hours of strain. Xabier García summed it up as a burst of pure emotion. Pride in the team, and a night bigger than the result, bound the fanbase together.
