Hopefully next week we will seek normality, even if we have to take a bus and walk a few miles to play football. The main thing is that children can play football and forget a little. “Everyone has gotten a lot stronger,” Calcerrada added.
“Thank you everyone, thank you to OKDIARIO, thank you for the efforts that we are all making, thanks to the volunteers who have been phenomenal, to the players, to the players of the amateur and young people, who helped support and bring food to those in need. Because of the faith we all have, when something like this happens to our loved ones, it doesn’t happen to us. We are lucky that this did not happen and that all the players are fine. The families are doing well. There was a lot of destruction of equipment and cars, but the main thing is that we are fine“, he added.
Finally he sent a message: “It’s time to stand up strong and achieve what everyone wants, a new field.. There is no other option. And be patient. Hopefully all this help will lift us up in another way, with more strength and that we will achieve normality, which will not be normal, but we will seek the normality of having a football field and kicking the ball. “Thank you everyone.”
