The historic Champions League semi-final won by Villarreal against Bayern Munich in the double confrontation with the holders of the Bundesliga is celebrated by the Castilian club with a hilarious meme that mentions, yes, the blockbuster soulslike Elden Ring.
After spending the night celebrating the qualification for the next round of the Champions League, the curators of the social networks of Villarreal have taken up the scene of a fight between Senzaluce and a dragon of the Interregnum to metaphorically represent the feat accomplished by the Spanish team against the much more popular German battleship.
The meme thus pinches the strings of football and video game fans, comparing the passage of the Villarreal round to the satisfaction felt by the emulators of Senzaluce after having managed to complete a match against a “great enemy” of Elden Ring.
There is no need to bother FIFA 22 or Pro Evolution, on the other hand, to remember how strong the link between football fans and video game fans can be: in August last year, for example, the Real Betis social networks presented to their audience the new Pezzella purchase with a hilarious GTA San Andreas-style video.
