Real Madrid fans are counting down the hours until their team plays the Champions League final against Liverpool in Paris on Saturday. It will be from nine o’clock at night. But those who are also prepared are the Forces of Order, in case the whites win.
For this reason, a special device has already been designed in which 6 groups of the Police Intervention Units (UIP), the riot police, stand out. In the event that the workforce was at 100%, that would translate into 300 troops. They will be available, whenever there is a Madridista victory, in Plaza de Cibeles and its surroundings, taking into account the party that will be held that night in the streets.
In addition, there are two groups of the Prevention and Reaction Units (UPR), also specialized in mass control, for that early morning in other areas of Madrid that are sensitive to being the focus of meetings or possible altercations.
As for Sunday, the foreseeable thing is that there will be a tour of the players in an open bus, so there will also be about 300 riot police on the itinerary so that everything goes according to plan: greetings to the fans as they pass through the center and visits to the headquarters of the Community of Madrid, in Sol, and to the City Council, in Cibeles.
In addition to all this, there will be the Municipal Police, especially in traffic cuts, and other CNP units, such as Information agents, Dog Guides and Cavalry.
