A tribute to people with disabilities

Football is passion, emotion, and fun, but it is also a tool to transform society and make the world a fairer, more inclusive, and tolerant place. With this in mind, we continue to work within our project ‘The Football We Want...’ reads the official Atlético Madrid website.

During the match against Lille, taking place on October 23 at Riyadh Air Metropolitano, thanks to the collaboration of the World Football Summit, Integrated Dreams, AccessibAll, and Diario AS, the second edition of the Inclusive Match in Spain and the third worldwide will take place.
