With one of the top football leagues in the world, it's no wonder that football in Spain is much more sport- it's a way of life. In Salamanca, just like in any Spanish city, you'll find crowded bars and spirited fans on game nights. The local team, U.D. Salamanca, is affectionately nicknamed "los charros" and plays for Spain's 2ª División, the lower but equally exciting of the country's two professional football leagues. If you want to see a game live and in action, buy yourself a team jersey, paint your face, and head down to the Estadio Helmántico (Helmántico Stadium) where the U.D. Salamanca plays all of its home games.
