Be thankful and be blessed because we will not return this, and when the watch hit zero, and when he said that the clock said. “Just that everyone is based and only grateful at the moment, because one day, football will be finished for all of us. As long as we stay for what is ahead of us, that’s what I told them to tell them that they understand it.”
