Bullfights at Las Ventas in Madrid during San Isidro, live: the latest news from Morante de la Puebla, Fernando Adrián, and Borja Jiménez today.
Follow the latest news from the bullfight at Las Ventas in Madrid for the San Isidro festival today with Morante de la Puebla, Fernando Adrián, and Borja Jiménez.
Borja began the low pass with a bull pinned with pins. That was the end of Juan Pedro's bull, who couldn't take it anymore, despite Borja's tenacious attempts, even trying to get between the horns, to no avail. He pricked the bull several times, and the bull fell back, requiring the pin.
Borja Jiménez's half-bulls are so good! The bull is doing the first two thirds so far, although he's a bit short on strength.
Fernando Adrián's performance was very good, but something was missing because the bull was long, repeated, very noble, and humble. He started on his knees, was good and demanding. From that moment on, Adrián did nothing wrong, but he lacked decisiveness, with a juampedro that was applauded during the drag. Ear.
Fernando Adrián performed excellent verónicas on the reception to Pardillo. He was briefly but well poked. Borja Jiménez removed the bull with beautiful chicuelinas. A good third of banderillas, and Morante's beautiful gallista cut took the bull from the subaltern.
The Madrid native toasts the Infanta.
The performance was exquisitely done, with precise distance, a measured pulse, and slow-motion passes. The maestro delivered two consecutive right-hand passes. And a series of natural passes, stopping time, was extraordinary. A perfect performance for the bull in front of him, capped off with a thrust. He earned an ear with a plea.
The maestro managed to steal three fabulous verónicas from the first rider, some sensational chicuelinas, and placed him on the horse, where he performed. Fernando Adrián removed him with saltilleras.
Morante offers to Infanta Elena.
