Maruja Arqués and her great passion for Valencia CF

International Women's Day

Last Saturday, Valencia CF season ticket holder Maruja Arqués visited to Mestalla. It was March 5th, the day she turned 80 years old, precisely on the same day as Valencia CF coach José Bordalás' birthday.

VCF Foundation director general, Teo Swee Wei and club ambassador Miguel Tendillo paid homage to her pitchside, gifting her a bunch of flowers. 

Maruja ended her birthday at Mestalla on a high note, with a win and a party which was thrown by her neighbours in the Benimaclet neighbourhood.
