๐ฃ๏ธ Didier Drogba : "When Messi, I and some of the players did an ad for a beverage company before the 2010 World Cup, Messi met some people in a remote village in the African forest , played football with them, but in the end he said to me in a serious tone, "Didier, do you see that these people drink dirty water while we play for millions of euros?" The next day I heard from the company director that Messi donated his entire share of the ad to dig wells for the village and build a good hospital, school, playground and other things.
The best thing is that he insisted on not mentioning his name in this donation. Six months later, Messi sent a doctor, an accountant and an engineer to the village to make sure that the money reached its owners and that the projects were actually built. Do you know the phrase that is still embedded in my mind to this day? On the plane back to South Africa, I asked him, "Why all this secrecy?" He gave me an answer I will never forget: "Because Africa doesn't need ads, it needs actions. And real actions don't need testimonials!" Messi's greatest goals were not scored in the goal, but in the hearts of those who do not know football! And whoever knows football will know that Messi is the best player in the history of football."
@Bllybdpk@CVDC_11@RscaTheo17 Niet normaal. In totaal zeker meer dan 1000euro kwijt. Eten en drinken hier is niet bepaald goedkoop.. en dan gaste zien die geen klote goesting hebben/tonen.
@CVDC_11@RscaTheo17 Vlucht+verblijf was 600 euro. Nu krijgen we 16 euro terug gewoon om hun hachje te redden (totaal 2000euro). Na de wedstrijd komen ze niet eens tot bij de supporters, gewoon eens van ver klappen. Maar op restaurent gaan erna en meer dan het dubbele uitgeven lukt wel.
@CyclingYazz I agree, in my opinion UAE should give the yellow away, even if itโs to the likes of onley/skjelmose/gregoire etcโฆ maybe it is also a stage where Lenny Martinez could be good.
But you never know with pogi. He is so hungry haha it looks like he wants to win every stage.
@wielervrspllng You donโt think vendrame will do well?
Some stages where Bennett canโt follow I think he gets his chance. He always delivers some good performances in the Giro.
