The match was played on 23 August 2008 against Málaga, a team promoted to La Liga that year. It served to commemorate Antonio Puerta and all the victims of the Spanair Flight 5022, the aviation accident which occurred three days before.
Played on 21 August 2009 against Xerez, team also promoted to Liga BBVA that year as occurred in 2008 with Málaga.
The match was played in November, during a Liga BBVA break because during the UEFA Champions League group stage (matchday 5). The rival this time was Granada, the team promoted that season to Liga Adelante. It was the first time since the tournament's inception that Sevilla lost the final match.
The fourth edition of the tournament was celebrated in summer again, during the pre-season. The guest for the first time wasn't Andalusian; it was Espanyol, which suffered a similar tragedy to Sevilla with the death of a player (Daniel Jarque in 2009).[1]
The match was played on 8 August due to the early start of the 2012–13 La Liga season, against Deportivo La Coruña, a traditional Sevilla "friend" team.
Sevilla's opponents were Boca Juniors, winners of the 2015 Argentine Primera División and the first non-Spanish team to take part.[2] About 2,000 visiting supporters (most of them expatriate Argentines living in European countries) attended the match.[3] Boca Juniors players wore a patch on their jerseys displaying the "16" worn by Puerta as a tribute to him.[4] Carlos Tevez, with two goals scored and two assists, was the man of match.[5] [6]
