Julián Álvarez, in Calchín: a bus trip and a good reflection for the boys who dream of the Argentine national team

“Good afternoon everyone. It is difficult to speak at a time like this, in the situation that we Argentines are experiencing, the greatest joy of all. Thank you all very much. Grateful for life for the love and support, to the people of Calchín and to people from every corner of the country. Every day we all feel more proud of being Argentines. It is a very great emotion. Having a dream come true is very difficult to describe in words. One feels what we had to live. And I take advantage of it to apologize because I cannot answer all the messages, because there are so many, but know that I read them, that they arrive”.

with those words, Giuliano Alvarez he spoke to his people, to those who welcomed him Calchin, the small city of Córdoba where the “Spider” took his first steps, scored his first dribble and scored his first goals. And where he was welcomed like a prodigal son after being World Champion with the Argentina national team at the World Cup in Qatar.

Upon arrival in his hometown, Julián rode in pomp, was given the key to the city, named the Club Atlético Calchín stadium after him, and gave an emotional speech. Also, they plan to make a statue with the image of him and the cup in his hands.

The city has been revolutionized. It is estimated that More than 10,000 people from the different cities of Cordoba around Calchín flocked to pay homage to the young 22-year-old striker, who appeared at the top of the fireman with all his family, walking the streets he traveled as a boy, wearing the Albiceleste shirt and the medal on his chest. Furthermore, he showed a replica of the trophy, the one he dreamed of winning since he was a child when he broke the nets on the fields of the cities of Cordoba.

Álvarez, having arrived at the stadium, greeted all the boys waiting for him on the playing field and went around with the Cup, waving to the stands. “Go ahead, champion!” they all sang in euphoria. And the “9”, with the same foot with which he scored four goals at the World Cup, threw balls at the crowd.

Furthermore, he clarified that “it was a pride to represent the country in such an important event”. “We made history, this will remain for life,” she remarked.

And he left a message for the little ones: “Tell the little ones and adolescents to keep dreaming, to believe, that if they work and sacrifice and do things well and, above all, if they are good people, they will be closer to the finish line their goals.” goals and dreams.

At the end there was a party by the group Los Caligaris, the band that Álvarez has followed since he was a child with his two brothers, who accompanied him on stage to sing that he is already “world champion”. And Julian was encouraged to sing as he had done on another occasion with that band that had composed a song in his honor. And to decorate Julián’s show in Calchín, fernet and roast were not missing.
