Ángel Di María was the star of Juventus’ 3-0 win against Nantes in the round of 32 of the UEFA Europa League. The Argentine was the leader of the team, converting a hat-trick and ensured his team’s qualification to the round of 16. However, beyond the sporting aspect, Fideo’s goals were dedicated to his 4-year-old daughter Pía, who was recovering in hospital.
Like every time he scores a goal, Di María runs towards the camera and draws the shape of a heart with his hands. This dedication is always addressed to Jorgelina, his wife, and their two daughters, Mía and Pía. However, after the Europa League treble and via his Instagram account, it was revealed that the dedication was more heartfelt than ever.
Jorgelina Cardoso, Fideo’s life partner, uploaded a video of the youngest of the Di Marías in a hospital room to her social networks. The little girl was hospitalized after several days of intense fever, according to her mother, and in the last few hours it was revealed that she was being operated on for tonsillitis.
The stories of Di María and his wife on Instagram
“Always make the sun rise on gray days. We love you strong”, was the message from the Juventus player’s wife. In the video you can see Pía’s happiness while in a notebook it is shown how his father scored the second goal of his personal account.
Reposting the story, the world champion with the Argentina national team left a nice message and hinted that he promised to score. “I told you. Dad would have dedicated a goal to him. I love them”was Angelito’s tender answer.
But the show of love and affection didn’t stop there. A few minutes later, Di María uploaded a new image. In it we see her daughter sleeping and in a smaller picture of her added the celebration of her goal with the promised dedication of her. The caption she chose for the image was: “I promised you the goal and fulfilled my warrior. I love you”.
Thus Fideo closes a dream afternoon. Not only was he fundamental on the pitch, as he got used to us, but he also knew how to keep a promise made to one of his daughters. Round afternoon for Di María who had his first big function with the Old Lady’s shirt.
