After defeat at Sporting, Suárez emotional: full responsibility | OneFootball

After suffering a 2-1 defeat at Jamor in the match that marked the Portuguese Cup final between Sporting and Torreense, in which he scored the lions’ only goal, Luis Suárez received news that, through his social media, he said was a childhood dream.

The forward from the green-and-white side reacted with understandable satisfaction and excitement to his call-up for the 2026 World Cup to represent Colombia, in a message in which he thanked his father and his girlfriend for helping him achieve this milestone.

“The childhood dream I had while playing on the fields of Santa Marta has come true. Today I am on the verge of representing my country at a World Cup. Thank you, old man Víctor, for your daily dedication in taking me to every training session. Thank you, Carolina Rubia (girlfriend), for being part of the biggest process of my life and for us being able to fight together for my dream, which I fulfilled with your unconditional support. It is the greatest responsibility and an honor to be part of this upcoming World Cup squad. Thank you, God, for this opportunity. Come on, Colombia, united we will make history!”, he wrote.

With 38 goals scored this season, including the 28 he netted in the Portuguese league that earned him the top scorer award in his debut campaign, the Colombian striker heads into international competition with the ambition of putting in a strong performance for his country.
