Watch: Real Sociedad coach Imanol in amazing tribute to fans after Copa triumph

Real Sociedad coach Imanol Alguacil refused to hold back after winning the Copa del Rey final against Athletic Bilbao.

Imanol staged a special celebration for La Real fans at the post-match media conference.

He arrived at the press room of the Estadio de la Cartuja dressed as the match had finished, but soon asked permission to change his outfit for that of a true Real Sociedad fan.

Alguacil changed his dark top for a blue and white shirt and scarf, and began to sing a song in tribute to all La Real fans who, due to the stadium lockout, could not be present for one of the most important moments in the history of the club.

"I'm going to go from coach mode to amateur mode if you allow me," began Alguacil. "This goes for all of you, Guipúzcoa!! For all those who feel La Real!! Come on Real!! Come on, Goazen!!"
