Rubén Uría reacts to the surprising detail about Atlético's lunchtime

Nacho Donado shares a curious detail from the trip to Valencia: with a 2pm kick-off, Atlético eat lunch at 10 in the morning. Rubén Uría had no idea, and the conversation ends with jokes about Pascual.

Before signing off, Nacho Donado wanted to share a detail that had caught his eye: Atlético would be flying to Valencia that afternoon and, for matches that kick off at 2pm, the team's routine is to have lunch at 10 in the morning.

Rubén Uría couldn't believe it and joked that it sounded very much like Pascu, his colleague Pascual, who was nearby. Nacho played along: there are spells when Pascu skips dinner altogether and follows some unusual fasts. Uría summed it up with a laugh: intermittent fasting.

A light-hearted moment that shows how a team's routine adapts to an unusual kick-off time.
