¡Al Neptuno! in Williamsburg, Brooklyn

Whenever Atletico Madrid win a trophy, supporters head to the Plaza de Neptuno on the Paseo del Prado to celebrate (meanwhile Real Madrid fans congregate at the nearby Plaza de Cibeles).

Well Atletico won the Europa League again yesterday afternoon and here’s the only Neptune I know of in NYC:

It’s a piece of street art painted on a commercial garage on Kent Ave. near North 6th Street in Williamsburg.

¡Aúpa Atleti!
