On the side of the training ground, a girl asked me to do an interview. Her sincere smile moved me, even though her questions were somewhat naive. I felt a special charisma about her, drawing us in step by step. Her talent for football was astonishing. As we grew closer, what impressed me even more was her uniqueness."
