English / Inglés

His nickname was Motoneta, perhaps he was called that because of his speed or the way he ran after and with the ball.

Motoneta had been an exceptional footballer, never playing in big teams outside his country or his home state, however, he stood out in the teams where he played because of his great ability and vision.

He didn't score many goals but he was very combative, collaborative and intuitive, he assimilated perfectly the way to play football as a team.

On the day of his retirement, at the end of his farewell match as an active player, he was approached by a journalist for an interview. The broadcast was live and direct for local television.

To Motoneta's right his 3 children and to his left his wife, after some questions about the game and his feelings about quitting, the journalist asks him:

-Motoneta, if you had to choose between football and your wife who would you choose

Motoneta, looks sideways at his wife and almost immediately, without hesitation and with a glow in the
eyes respond:

-If I had to choose, no doubt! -Soccer, of course.

-And what do you think, madam? The journalist, addressing Motoneta's wife.
The lady with the face of circumstance, takes her husband's hand and says:

-That's his passion and no one will take it away from him.
