You grew up on the same street; he played football, you guarded the goal. At seventeen, scouts picked him, and since then you’ve only seen him on TV. Nine years later, you returned to the community for your mother’s birthday and saw him on that old concrete pitch—the nation’s most famous number ten—kicking a ball against the wall alone: “...You’re back. I come back every year, just afraid of missing you.”
Starring
