Carlos Tevez gave one of the most iconic images in tributes to Diego Maradona, when he celebrated his goal in Boca Juniors’ triumph against Inter, for CONMEBOL Libertadores, with a shirt that the idol himself wore in 1981 and gave him.
This Wednesday, Carlitos used his social networks to leave a message for his dear friend.
“Any tribute that I can make to you will always be a small thing because of how great you are! This photo reflects that I still do not fall that you are no longer with us. I point to the sky but my gaze is down. But I also know that from where you are, you give me strength to continue. I don’t know if I can measure up, but of one thing I am sure: I will leave my heart to make you happy! I miss you friend”, published Apache on his official Twitter account.
