Christin’s (my girlfriend if you didn’t know) cousin is in the women’s boat for Sevilla.

Sevilla beat :poop: in the annual Regatta for the first time since 2010!

I always think this kind of thing is an interesting case of why the Sevilla rojiblanco-verdiblanco rivalry is so insane: because it spans all of local society and sporting, not just football. And so derbi days aren’t just football rivalry days, they’re whole-city explosions of sporting euphoria.

I agree. It’s a shame we don’t have a basketball team to rival :poop: in that sport.

I’ve had two cousins (well @Christin 's cousins) now compete in the regatta derbi. One on the female side and one on the male.

The Tim Traveller on YouTube put out a video about the boat race recently, although his footage was from last year’s race.
