Next Friday we will celebrate the 92 year anniversary of my uncle's birthday in his hometown, Huitzuco, Guerrero, Mexico. He was Rubén Uriza Castro.
He had a perfect score at the Closing Ceremony of the 1948 Olympic Games in Wembley, winning the Gold Medal for Mexico for Equestrian Jumping.
Next Saturday another Mexican, Javier Hernández Balcázar, will likely be in the same field, playing for Manchester United against Barcelona Football Club, for the UEFA Champions League.
I feel proud for my uncle, and for Little Pea (Chicharito) as we call Hernández in Mexico.
Wembley announcement.
Update: Unfortunately Chicharito did not score and his team lost.
Long Live Lionel Messi!
