This is why we wanted to do a symbolic gesture like this and the Walking Football match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018Oak trees are an important part of our culture and we hope this tree will grow and stand here for as long as friendship.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-2-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17306\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-2-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-2-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-2.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While <strong>Steve Beharall<\/strong>, the director of NUFC\u2019s foundation, echoed that sentiment when he said: \u2018There\u2019s a great synergy between our cities and clubs. Both from regions with industry where our identity is important to us. On behalf of Newcastle United and our foundation, we want to thank the Athletic foundation for extending this offer to us.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Newcastle and Bilbao are two cities which share a lot more in common than just football, with the regions having similar industrial histories based on mining and shipbuilding, while citizens of both places are also recognised for their distinct sense of identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ceremony was also attended by directors <strong>Igor San Roman<\/strong>, <strong>Laura Ruiz de Azua<\/strong> and <strong>Josetxu Urrutia<\/strong>, and <strong>Galder Reguera<\/strong>, the project director of Athletic Club Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fundazioa.athletic-club.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/athletic-foundation-oak-tree-nucastle-nov-5-1.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Walking Football with Gontzal Suances<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The oak tree planting was followed by a Walking Football match between fans of both teams, with Los Leones led by Gontzal Suances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several Athletic and Newcastles fans attended a riveting match played on the rooftop pitch at NUCASTLE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before the match kicked off a joint team photo was taken and the referees explained the rules. The Magpies took the lead but Athletic soon equalised through none other than Suances himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rest of the game was a back-and-forth affair played in a friendly but motivated spirit and finished 4-4.
