Manchester United star Alejandro Garnacho has insisted that his commitment to play football was due to the Red Devils’s Champions League victory in 2008.
Recall that Manchester United defeated Chelsea in the final of the competition via penalty shootouts.
In a chat with the club’s official website, Garnacho stated that Cristiano Ronaldo was his idol.
“I first became a football fan because of my dad. He put a game on for me; I watched it, and then he took me out to play.

“I fell in love immediately. Soon after that, I was watching matches every weekend, and it took off from there.
“I was 7 years old during the 2008 Champions League final. Ronaldo is my idol, so that’s where I really grew to love football.
“Van der Sar saving that penalty was just incredible, and since then, I’ve loved the sport and will do for the rest of my life.”
