Simone Biles recently shared glimpses from watching her first soccer match in a stadium alongside Olympians Rebeca Andrade and Mondo Duplantis. Biles attended the Real Madrid-Athletic Club match at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.
While Andrade opted for Real Madrid’s jersey paired with denim, Biles wore a chic outfit featuring a brown blazer, a black T-shirt, and knee-length boots. The gymnast complemented the look with a diamond-studded necklace and golden hoops, completing her look with a classic black bag.
The legendary US gymnast shared a few glimpses of her Madrid trip, beginning with watching a water fountain. Sharing a video of a packed Santiago Bernabeu stadium, Biles expressed her excitement and wrote:
“My first soccer match.”
She posed for a mirror selfie, flaunting her outfit and bright-yellow phone case. Biles also shared a picture with fellow floor exercise Paris Olympics medalist Andrade. Biles was also accompanied by her mother, Nellie. They were both seen delighting in scrumptious food at the stadium.
Real Madrid beat Athletic Club 1-0 after Federico Valverde scored in the third minute of injury time.
