The young fan came to El Campín, as on so many occasions, but instead of going directly to the stands, he went first to fulfill his dream of meeting the players on the squad.

Loaded with illusion, and accompanied by his family, Miguel, who was diagnosed with a terminal illness, received a warm greeting from all the Millonarios players, who were moved by his presence.

The presence of the fan and his family was possible thanks to the management of Paola Molano, an ambassador fan who was a cheerleader for the team and who today lives the feeling of football from the stands.

After establishing contact with the Millonarios marketing area, Miguel was able to be close to all the players. He already knew a few of them, because in 2019 he had had the opportunity to share with them in another match, according to the team captain, Mackalister Silva.

In fact, before the ball rolled, Silva was in charge of launching the battle cry in honor of Miguel Ángelas recounted by Juan Pablo Vargas.

”It was a very hard moment in the dressing room. We were all quiet, no one wanted to say a word. It’s hard to see a person like that and even more so because of what they told us was going to happen to him. Mackalister said that we should play the game for him, his last game, he is going to see us and dedicate this game to him: “If he is going to leave us, let him leave us happy.” But it was a difficult time and knowing a person like that gives you a lot of encouragement to face the day to day because sometimes you complain about little things and start crying and that left us a pretty big message “said the Costa Rican, author of two goals in the game this Wednesday.

Take a minute and 15 seconds to listen to Juan Pablo Vargas talking about how they lived Miguel Ángel’s visit in the dressing room of Millonarios and the reflections that that moment left behind. “Sometimes one complains about little things”…????❤️‍????

In the midst of the emotional messages that the story of Michelangelo has inspired, the impact of football on the fans has been highlighted.

”We were moved by that visit; she moved us a lot, obviously because of the situation he has. Thank you for this moment that makes us live, the reality of what is our day-to-day life”rescued Jorge Arias, defender of the team, in the mixed zone.

Regarding the details of Miguel’s situation, his family asked that his decision not to share more information be respected.

“Now we must put Miguel in our prayers and respect the difficult time that is coming for his loved ones”Paola Molano pointed out, in a letter that reminded many that football goes beyond a game.
