Street sellers in Barcelona have launched their own line of trainers.
Street sellers in Spain are often immigrants from African countries that sell fake designer clothes, sunglasses and shoes.
The brand is called Top Manta, the name of which comes from the blanket (manta) that the sellers lay their products on. Their aim is to produce ethnical and sustainable trainers which also help support the street sellers.
Top Manta have just launched the Ande Dem trainers, which means walking together in Wolof, the language spoken by most sellers, who are mainly from Senegal.
Traditional town and city centre markets could play a key role in the nation's economic and social recovery from the Coronavirus pandemic, according to.
Real Madrid came out with a greater sense of urgency and desperation in the second half. The likes of Marta Cardona started to become more audacious. Having already tried a speculative long shot that struck the post before the break, Cardona upped her level of involvement and placed an incredible left-footed cross onto the head of Jessica Martínez. However, the Paraguayan could only direct the header on target.
Asllani also looked to force her team back into the game, dropping deep like a central midfielder and helping Real progress past a dialed down press. This freed up Maite, who enjoyed the breathing space and began to attempt shots from distance.
