Marcelo racconta su The Players Tribune come ha vissuto la finale di Champions League del 2018 contro il Liverpool.

Nerves are normal in football. This was something different.

I am telling you, brother, it felt like I was suffocating.

Everything had started the night before the final. I couldn’t eat. I couldn’t sleep. I was thinking only of the match. It was funny, actually, because my wife, Clarice, gets so mad at me for biting my nails, and she finally got me to stop a few years ago. But I woke up the morning of the final, and all my nails were gone.
