Football returns to Valencia this Friday with a derby at Mestalla, and Valencia CF and Levante have united to send out a message of optimism and collective strength in light of this important step forward towards normality.
The game was suspended from it's initial date back in March, with the government declaring a state of alarm to reduce the impact of COVID-19. Almost three months on, the derby will finally be played, a symbol of a first move towards a normal life missed by everybody -regardless of their team.
The message from the two clubs is that we will lift the city of Valencia back up in the face of any adversity, together. #LevantemosValencia
