Gianluca Lapadula and the touching gesture with a girl who waited for him on the way out of the hotel

Gianluca Lapadula was a decisive protagonist in Peru's 2-0 win over Paraguay for the last date of the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers that was played at the National Stadium in Lima and when he left for Italy he had a moving gesture with a girl.

Gianluca Lapadula departed from the bicolor hotel to Jorge Chavez airport in the mobility of the Peruvian national team.

In the images shared by journalist Rosa María Muñoz on her Twitter account, she also mentioned that the little girl's name is Nozomi and she is seven years old.

Gianluca Lapadula's tender action fulfilled a dream for Nozomi that congratulated him on his goal as he tried to get closer to Peru's attacker.

“I congratulate you on your goal,” the girl shouted as she said goodbye to Gianluca Lapadula. The striker gave him what he had in hand, a box of gum, which can be seen in the video to the little girl treasure while the 'Bambino' held Nozomi's hand.

Gianluca Lapadula managed to take a picture with the girl. The anecdote took place in the middle of the journey of the car that carried the attacker of the Peruvian national team.

This is because the girl noticed the departure of Gianluca Lapadula and reached him after having traveled a small stretch from her exit from the hotel.

According to the same source of information, Nozomi achieved the mobility of Gianluca Lapadula, after a long wait of a week and a few hours into the post-match night, together with his mother who after the goalscorer's gesture shouted: “Lapadula you are the best”.

Gianluca Lapadula confirmed his generous, kind and affectionate character that he shows on the court and through his social networks with the Peruvian national team and his family.

The Peruvian team beat Paraguay 2-0 with a goal by Gianluca Lapadula after an assist from Christian Cueva and Yoshimar Yotún to seal the win. The white and red sealed her qualification for the repechage for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Peru will play with the winner of phase 4 of the Asian Qualifiers between Australia and the United Arab Emirates, which will be played in a single match next June.

RICARDO GARECA'S ANALYSIS

The coach of the Peruvian national team analyzed the bicolor qualification to the World Cup Repechage and valued the performance of his players during the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers.

“The key was the uptick we had during the qualifying round, from the middle to the front. We didn't start well but the rally was important and gave us the chance to access the repechage. I want to congratulate the boys for qualifying on the last date for the repechage. Now it is to know the rival, we are going to be aware of who is our turn. I think we will have enough time, although it will be a difficult opponent. We are all looking to get to Qatar, but the most important thing now is to try to be with the family, that the players return to the rhythm, that the boys with problems recover and thus arrive in an important way,” said Ricardo Gareca.
