The touching story of the star that tomorrow plays in the Champions final: They called me weak and helpless at school

Lucas Moura scored the hat-trick against Ajax in the match played in Amsterdam and so with the dramatic victory achieved in the last seconds, Tottenhami secured the club's first ever final in the Champions League, writes Periscopi.

Moura, like most Brazilian football players who are shining today in Europe, had had a very difficult childhood.

His father shows that he had very small legs and that it was very difficult to find a pair of shoes for him.

The legs were too small, and we couldn't find a pair to make. He gave them to a friend with the same number of feet. These shoes are a relic and I hold them. It'll be a reminder that I'll keep it forever”, shows the footballer's father.

At school Moura's friends ridiculed him and considered him weak, but he believed in his talent and would one day reach the top of football.

I was called weak and helpless at school. But I never cared what they thought of me. I always believed in my talent and I could make my dreams. I could have followed my friends' path, becoming drug dealers and threatening people with pistols in my head, but my parents taught me and my dreams of becoming a professional football player kept me off that street,” Moura said.

Tomorrow, Saturday, by 9:00 p.m., Lucas Moura will play Tottennahm in the final of the Champions League against Liverpool.

40 friends and relatives in total have asked the star of Tottennahmi to provide tickets to tomorrow's final in Madrid.

I have a very good relationship with Allison and Fabinho. I'm happy for them. I've been talking all this time because I need tickets for the finals. I need a lot of tickets because I want to bring in all my family and friends from Brazil and all the important people in my career,”, Moura concluded. /Periscope/
