They don’t say this to my face, because then there would be a problem, but on social networks they write what they want.”
“They abused my partner, my daughter and our unborn child. It’s a cruel world and we need to know how to live in it. I don’t know what else to say… Wanting a child to die is really serious.” . They don’t think about the person behind the football player they see on TV. We are people too, we are the same.”
