André Pierre-Gignac is one of the best soccer players in Liga MX.
Such a title has not taken away a pinch of humility and simplicity from the veteran striker for Tigres de la UANL. Before the duel against the UNAM Pumas, the Frenchman had an incredible gesture with a boy who will not forget the night Gignac gave him his shirt.
The gesture of the French striker occurred before the match started. The boy and his representative were in the stands of the stadium with a French flag. This caught the attention of Gignac who without hesitation approached the place to deliver the valuable objective.
Although it seems simple, This gesture from the French greatly moved the young fan of Tigres de la UANL. The boy burst into tears upon receiving his idol’s shirt, among thousands of fans present at the University Olympic Stadium.
Gignac, a gentleman before and after
Curiously, this was not the only detail that Gignac gave in the day of Mexican soccer. After the match between Pumas de la UNAM and Tigres de la UANL finished, the French attacker gave another shirt to another amateur. Despite the fact that the club left with the disappointment of not having achieved the three points, in the heart of the veteran attacker there was still enough tranquility to cordially attend to his followers .
