Instead of giving an interview about the match after the Champions League victory, Raphinha did something even more noble.

Barcelona’s top scorer decided to send his condolences to Jesús de Miguel, who tragically died after suffering a heart attack following a collision during a Spanish second-division match.

"I’m sorry, but I don’t want to talk about football right now. I simply want to send strength to Jesús de Miguel’s family.

May he rest in peace,” said Raphinha.

The forward scored a brace, and Barcelona defeated Aston Villa 3–0.
