Chicharito came to tears
Chicharito began his speech "I've had a lump in my throat all day, because returning home the way I have returned and with all their love and affection... I have no words to thank them (.... ) and speaking of those three personalities (about his father and grandfather), three soccer fathers who contributed on and off the field and helped the name of Chivas to reach the top of the world (...)
"If Chivas is defined by anything, it is in courage, because it has the balls to play with pure Mexicans and I don't care what others do. Chivas is in another race," said an emotional Javier Hernandez, always with tears in his eyes. " He concluded the emotional presentation.
