“The bus dropped me off at the crossroads of trees. I was scared because I have never seen a city in my life.”

“She made sure me and my brother ate first. My mother often went to bed without going to dinner with us. I will never forget where I came from.”

“If I keep working I will achieve it and please my parents who did everything for me without a pair of shoes for football.”

“I dedicate a mission to heaven, to a friend who lives forever in my heart. He taught me to play football when I was 6 years old.”

“One day, I was going to Artigas with the idea of quitting football, when he called me and asked me to stay. Junior said he had a future in football or that he was a football quitter.
