Solidarity football match between UE Olot and UE Figueres.

Unió Esportiva Olot and Unió Esportiva Figueres hosted the fourth edition of the TEA Tournament yesterday at the Municipal d’Olot, a solidarity event with various matches benefiting the TEA Garrotxa association.

The solidarity event kicked off at 6:30 PM with a friendly match between the male youth teams of both clubs. Later, at 7:30 PM, the female youth teams took to the field. The most charitable part of the day featured a match between the Club Atletisme Garrotxa and Unió Esportiva Figueres Integra, the solidarity projects of the two clubs.
To conclude the event, the senior men's teams from Olot and Figueres competed in a match that ended with a clear 4-1 victory for the home team. Goals from Xaloc, Walid, Alhagie, and Gil Muntadas overturned Joel Casado's early opener.
This marked the fourth edition of the TEA Tournament, an initiative launched in February 2018 to support the association for families with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The tournament's venue alternates annually between Olot and Vilatenim. In addition to ticket sales (ten euros), the event aimed to raise awareness of the association's projects, and jerseys from players like Arnau Tenas, Ferran Jutglà, and Albert Orriols were raffled.
Tomorrow, Roger Vidal's players will face a Third Catalan category team, Ronin FC, presided over by content creator Ibai Llanos, in a friendly match that has generated considerable interest.
