reason 439 why I love this team
For the billionth time in the last week or so, Madrid’s players were très adorable. Usually, standing around with each other (or alone) is enough for me, but this time, at an Adidas clinic with children between the ages of 12-16, it was also with their actions.
Side note: upon seeing this picture, my first thought was that it was of Drenthe, Pipita, el Pirata and Canales.
Anyway, on to the adorableness!
Garay high-fiving one of the children, with Pipita next in line.
Marcelo joking around with the participants. And look at Sergio’s big smile! It looks like the Indio de Camas has taken Kaká’s place…
Diarrá acting like Ronaldinho, with Pipita (?) acting as photographer. The kid doesn’t look that impressed though.
One lucky kid gets lifted up by Cris AND Marcelo…
… and another manages not to faint in the presence of and upon being touched by a saint. Love Iker’s profile!!!
And my new favorite, Morata, is just adorable being himself, because he could practically be one of the kids participating, since he’s only two years older than the 16-year-olds. If he weren’t wearing a different outfit, he could totally pass as one of them.
Wow, Sergio must be one funny guy. Look at how he made Pipita laugh! And the Argentines just can’t help themselves, they have to touch him…
And what’s a post without Sergio showing off his body?
Just when I thought I couldn’t love these guys any more, they have to go and prove me wrong!
Footballers + kids = always adorable!
(Also – I totally had to look twice before I realized that girl *wasn’t* Drenthe. Maybe she’s a fan?)
Sergio is simply wonderful. He brings a smile to everyone…..
I want to be that kid that Cris & Marcelo are lifting. My love for this teams grows more and more each day. 🙂
this is so awsome of our players!!
is there a video perhaps ?
only reason 439? I thought its no. 4432853947875456855398956262491444646679085670439

“… and another manages not to faint in the presence of and upon being touched by a saint” hahahaha!
Lucky kids..lucky lucky kids..This is probably the first time I’ve ever wanted to be 16 again *cringe*.
Oh I just love when men are great with kids. Since these men are footballers, you can only imagine how high-pitched my squeal(s) were 🙂

the whole getting raised thing is worth a burst ovary.. reproduction instincts are a killer
somehow I must have overseen that second last pic. It made me laugh so hard. Thank you so much Una! *having tears in my eyes laughing*
You are right! When I saw that picture of the kids, I REALLY THOUGHT it was and Drenthe! I swear!
