Del Campo kills the founding myths of Betis and Sevilla

The Sevillian researcher relates how the mythical 'Manquepierda' and 'they say he never gives up' were already present at the founding of both clubs, negating partisan mythification and offering a rigorous and dispassionate history of Sevillian football.
