Guillem Baixauli: “I don’t care about football and the Cup, I want to see my people happy”

Nobody talks about football

V cities Valencians under the influence of DANA. From afar, Thank you samples supportcelebrations, minutes of silence, dedication…Although almost no one understands what happened played that day Leagues. The spirits are at the very bottom. There are still many cities destroyed by the disaster, and the dirt does not allow us to see further.

Around Valencia sounds like utopia what’s planned this week two cup matches. He Parla Valencia School And Manises-Getafe were suspended last week and transferred for this Wednesday and this Thursdayrespectively. Guillem Baishauli, Manises, forwardvoices the feelings of hundreds of humble players who have lost everything these days and who right now they don’t have time think about him football. Guillem’s case is complicated because DANA has taken one of his best friends And delusion play this Thursday against Getafe. The story of this attacker is one of thousands hidden behind the tragedy. He is doing A.S. It’s almost silent, and he has to stop several times to keep from crying. His tears are the tears of the whole country.

I don’t know where to start…

Fortunately, my family is okay. We suffered material damage and that’s it. My house is under control, but Picanya is destroyed. There are some improvements, but there is still a lot of work to be done.

Is people’s help valuable?

It’s very interesting to see people walking from Valencia after an hour or so of walking. Then they leave, covered in mud up to their eyebrows. It gives me goosebumps when thousands and thousands of people show up ready to help. I’m from Levante and the truth is that the other day I was touched when I saw Iborra and his family lending a helping hand, or the Levante players in Ciutate. Everyone is very involved.

I already said that the city has improved a little…

Yes, but you can spend months and months like this. The hardest thing is when you think that you are used to seeing Picanya like this, destroyed. We want to rebuild our city.

You’ve been non-stop since Wednesday. How are they organized?

I devote ten hours to Pikanya. This is my job now. I only stop for half an hour to eat. We first focused on a strategic point and spread out through the streets. It takes ten people to vacate the house. Now, with help, we go through the zones.

And with all this, on Thursday, if it is not rescheduled, he will have to play a cup match against Getafe…

This doesn’t make any sense. If this is played, it will be unfortunate. I had one of the best weeks of my life because of the Getafe game and because I was going to celebrate my 30th birthday and it turned into a nightmare. After this tragedy there is no point in playing this match. The Cup can continue without us. Many cities and many sports facilities were destroyed. How will we think about sports? In addition, we are workers and after a working day we go to training, but as fans… Football for us is entertainment, and now…

Do you think this will play out?

At the moment we have no news from either the Spanish Federation or the Valencian Federation. I lived through a nightmare and tell my people that now I don’t care about football or the Cup. I want to see my people healthy, happy and recovered. The tragedy shocked us.

Have I thought about standing up if it’s your turn to play?

To be honest, I thought about this a lot. I would talk to my people so they can give me advice. But I also tell him that if I play, I will, because I lost one of my best friends because of this DAN. He would be proud and happy to see me play. I was going to come to the game, but now…
