Bizarre 

[hckošice 15,129]

wow! just wow!

 

Nemanja Matic

 

Respect. The guy didn´t forget and showed a extreme class act, he heard that his former club from my city Košice is in huge financial troubles and he decided to help. No one asked or contacted him with any favor, he just decided after he heard somewhere about the problems and immediately he send money! and helped the whole club to remain in our second division and the players will again be able to play in our stadium in Košice, after they were kicked out of the stadium last season because of enormous debt. they had to play home matches in a near village

 

Huge class act.! Nemanja is a true hero !

He was an ex-Benfica player, and he was really loved there (because he was a great player, and because they sold him to Chelsea by 25 Million euro )
