Supporters of La Liga outfit Real Betis have once again performed their annual Christmas tradition of throwing thousands of soft toys onto the pitch for disadvantaged children.
The tradition dates back to 2018 and it sees supporters rain soft toys down upon the Estadio Benito Villamarin for volunteers to collect and then donate to local children in need.
It was started as a charitable undertaking by the club and its supporters for those, perhaps, less fortunate than themselves and has since grown into a yearly spectacle which supporters of other clubs love to view.
The club shared a video of the special scenes on their social media accounts on Sunday.
There was a countdown on the big screens before the supporters began to chuck the toys of all shapes and sizes.
Staff moved quickly to collect them before the match with Rayo Vallecano got underway.

The two sides played out a 1-1 draw with Isco opening the scoring from the spot before Isi Palazon levelled in the second half.
The result leaves Betis sitting ninth in LaLiga while Vallecano are 12th.
Betis instructed fans that they could only throw completely soft toys and they could not include batteries.
Many supporters wore Santa Claus hats which, instead of traditional red and white, were Betis’ green and white colors.
