My father allowed it. Once in the stadium, the teams came on the pitch to warm up. A player with dark skin and a purple jersey with a white collar came out. He played with the ball like there was nothing easier. He fascinated me so much that I have been a “Violet” ever since. It was Murli Jacare. Forza viola.’
