"There are few more sympathetic figures in European football: the aesthetic endurance athlete...ready to talk about the his grief at the loss of his daughter, Xana, and the inspiration he seeks in her memory". Rob Smith excellent report #ChampionsLeagueFinal #PSG #LuisEnrique

Luis Enrique: “My daughter came to live with us for 9 wonderful years. We have a thousand memories of her. My mum had no pictures up of her, I said “Mum you have to, she’s alive if we remember her.”
I’m glad his team won The Champions League tonight. ❤️

poor final . scrappy, uncreative, football played by two teams that could have given so much more. The fans passionate as they could be. Residents of Bilbao bemoaning having hoolies trashing a city with a proud history of football and its english roots #EuropaLeagefinal
thakkyou Liverpool for bringing us The Beatles and football as an act of solidarity worthy Premier Champions #Liverpool #liverpoolday #PremierLeagueChampions

#Legado #Papa #Francisco @Jimmy_Burns "Francisco tenía ese sentido futbolero de "meter el gol" con una persona. Tenía una increíble empatía con todo el mundo. No tenía temor a decir la verdad a la gente del poder".
