Satisfied. Eduardo Lozano, owner of the Pontevedra bullring, was quite satisfied this Monday with the artistic result of the fight, as well as the response of the fans to the posters presented this year at the A Peregrina bullfighting fair. Of course, between laughter, he did not hesitate to criticize the harshness of the presidency when it comes to awarding trophies to bullfighters, a circumstance that led to whistles and boos from the public when they learned about certain decisions that they did not share.Thus, he made himself wait when it came to granting this Sunday the second ear that Manzanares managed to cut off to the first lucky man, Economist, he hopes that he exasperated the public, as did the fact that he did not want to reward the effort and the Morante de la Puebla deals with his second, Limonero. Both this sword and El Juli left Pontevedra empty.
As for the first of the fair, the row was monumental when Diego Ventura stole the second of the appendices that would have allowed him to leave the sand of the San Roque arena on his shoulders. Pablo Aguado, who made his debut in the city of Lérez, did not win any trophy, while El Fandi cut off an ear from each of his bulls. Thus, the 2019 balance leaves only half a dozen cut appendices.
«This year we have had a president -Antonio Nieto, head of the Autonomous Police Unit of A Coruña- and a very demanding advisor, demanding more. They took away the front door from Diego Ventura and on Sunday he deprived Morante of an ear ... When it was one of the best times he has been seen fighting here. Very good people, but it was believed that we were in the Monumental de Las Ventas », joked Lozano. The businessman was pleased, in any case, of the influx of public, something that caused that on Sunday the three-quarters of entry was widely exceeded and the poster with the "no tickets" was about to be hung. “Fortunately, in terms of audience, it has been better than last year. We are happy".More immediate future"Yes of course". This was the businessman's answer to the question of whether, in view of the result of the A Peregrina bullfighting fair, its continuity in 2020 is guaranteed. Of course, I avoid revealing its structure, that is, if it will repeat the scheme a bullfight and two bullfights, one of them mixed.
In any case, Lozano made it clear that, “as long as we are the owners of the plaza, there will be bulls in Pontevedra. And keep up the supporters' clubs and the fans in the city.
