Carlos Antonio Velez revealed what happened to his grandson, because of ‘Dibu Martínez:
In the ‘Planeta Fútbol’ program on Antena 2, Carlos Antonio referred to what Messi has been saying. But he then pointed to the ‘Dibu’ and It seems that he became the “bad example” for the son of his daughter Paola Vélez:
“It seems good to me, because the boys copy that, I have told it, my grandson Antonio is playing soccer, now. He likes him and the World Cup got him into it and he is ‘stuck’. And he likes the arc, that’s the only bad news (laughs); In my time I did it, and I respect and love archers…”
Vélez confessed that when he was young, he had several arch references such as Pablo Centurión, Adolfo Riquelme, Rodolfo Camerini, Isidro ‘Trucutrú’ Olmos, José Rosendo Toledo, Gianfranco Troilo, Antonio Zaracho. But his grandson was paying attention to ‘Dibu’ Martínez:
“One goes looking at models and I tell them the anecdote. On vacation, in Lima, when my grandson went to his soccer class and accompanied him every day. And one of those days, he began to celebrate the ‘Dibu’ Martínez. Bah! I put his scream into it.”
And following telling that he scolded him, for the disappointment of the model that the little one took, he pointed out the players and their responsibility towards the young people: “The players don’t realize it, but everything they do, those guys fix it and repeat it. Be very careful, man, I don’t know what part you don’t understand.”.

I do them every day and at all times, but mine does not reflect as if it reflects all these boys who are exposed to the world, through television “
We will have to wait if Antonio, the commentator’s grandson, can achieve the dream his grandfather had and become a professional goalkeeper.
