ezequiel-unsain

Although it’s said that wins and losses are part and parcel of a game, it’s not easy for the players to accept the result that they think could have been different. For someone who was so involved throughout and gave everything to help his/her team in fighting the opponent, it’s hard to accept that their team did not win. The same emotions flowed through Defensa y Justicia goalkeeper Ezequiel Unsain. 

Unsain who could not save an effort from Luis Vazquez of Boca Juniors in the 92nd minute of the match, was devastated after the final whistle blew off. The Justicia goalkeeper sunk to his knees following the full-time whistle in devastation that he failed to keep a clean sheet. Unsain looked utterly disappointed and stayed still on the ground. 

However, as it’s said that the fans make players stronger, a young fan darted on the pitch in an effort to console Unsain. The boy too dropped to the grass to give the player a hug. In heartwarming scenes, Unsain also accepted the young boy’s lovely gesture and put his arms around the supporter before the pair rose to their feet together. 

Unsain's team-mate Nazareno Colombo then came over where he put his arm around the goalkeeper and gave the supporter a pat on his head. Fans also loved every bit of this wholesome moment and the video of the whole incident was shared widely. 

“A special moment last night as a young child runs onto the pitch to embrace former Newell’s goalkeeper Ezequiel Unsain (now of Defensa y Justicia). Unsain conceded a goal in injury-time after keeping Boca Juniors scoreless for 90 minutes,” wrote a user of the account that shared the video. 

Fellow football fans were loving the wholesome content, as one said: "If you need to watch one video today, it's this one. The Soul Embrace 2.0." Another remarked: "This video is what you all need for today." A third added: "There is nothing like the emotions that football gives you."
