I’ve just gotten to know this (which idk why I’ve not before bc it’s the cutest story) but omg this is so sweet.

So the little boy in the gif was born with cerebral palsy and couldn’t move at all and he had to overcome a lot. He adores football and has ever since he could remember and plays as a goalkeeper, and after he was selected to go in the stadium he said he really wanted to go with Manu, bc he was his fave and he loved him.

He realized most goalkeepers were second in line and asked the lady that selected them to the players to be second, praying he’d get to stand next to Manu. Cutest part? He actually learned some German words so he could be able to talk to him. He said it was the happiest day of his life and he tried to stay serious but he couldn’t stop smiling.
