12 Beautiful, worthy of respect moments in sports
Hi!
It`s so awesome that professional sport is not just about competition but also about
respect, unity, honesty, humanity and sometimes very cute and touching moments.
All of that makes us realize that sport is more than those countless court proceedings,
mere statistics, doping scandals and silly jiggery-pokery!
All of that gives us people hope and courage to proceed with our lives.
1.
Cristiano Ronaldo is considered to be one of the best footballers in the world.
But a lot of people say that this guy is a total disrespectful egomaniac.
While we all have our flaws it doesn`t mean there isn`t enough place in our hearts for
kindness.
In one of the matches against Uruguay, Ronaldo gave Edinson Cavani a helping hand when the
guy was clearly seriously hurt.
He helped him to leave the field despite the fact that Portugal was loosing the game.
In 2016 Ronaldo got himself a new haircut but not because he wanted to change his image
but to show his support to the kids.
Ronaldo imitated the scars many kids get after brain surgery.
Another cool thing Ronaldo did was when he payed 60 000 pounds for a young fella`s operation.
What a guy, right?
2.
A very touching moment occurred on the final lap during a Biathlon sprint in Antholz.
Daria Domracheva and Dorothea Virer were up gainst one another in the pursuit of silver.
The battle was rough but fair.
When Dorothea turned to the home stretch first, Daria`s ski slipped on her opponent`s ski
pole.
Virer didn`t stop and went forward against all odds.
When Daria saw, what happen she put her hands down, deciding she was gonna let Dorothea
win.
The public appreciated the gesture right away.
It was obvious that Daria did an honorable thing.
So finally Virer came second and Daria came third.
So there you have it.
One of the rarest examples of honest and beautiful moments in sports.
Respect is everything.
They say that for a reason.
3.
Marathons are extremely difficult.
They require an insane amount of stamina.
For most athletes the main goal is to finish the distance at all cost.
And it`s very difficult.
Your system can fail at any given moment, especially during the last sections of the
distance.
This happened many times before.
Take 37th London`s marathon for example.
When Matthew Rees helped David Wyeth to get to the finish line.
David was in a bad condition and seemed like he was about to faint.
So Rees sacrificed his score to help the man he didn`t even know.
Wyeth was totally devastated, he couldn`t control his own legs.
When there was only 300 meters left Rees came to rescue.
He decided he was gonna help the man finish the marathon whatever it may take.
David fell a few times but Matt didn`t give up on him.
He kept saying “Come on, buddy!
We can do this!”
Rees was planning to finish the run in 2 hours 50 minutes but was 2 minutes 26 seconds late
because of what happened.
But it`s alright because it was all for the good cause.
4.
The first round of Roland Garros started with a rain when Novak Djokovic was up against
Joao Souza.
So before the match started, Novak spend some fun time with the ball boy.
He decided to make friends with the guy who covered him from rain.
Djokovic took the umbrella and gave his racket to the boy.
He gave the guy some water and it seemd like they really had some fun there.
The crowd was very touched with the scene so they gave the duo a round of applause.
Once again Djokovic showed that he has an opened heart.
5.
A very touching accident happened after the final sambo tournament during the European
Games in Baku.
Stepan Popov won the fight against Amil Gasimov.
Amil was badly injured and couldn`t walk after the fight.
So what do you think?
Stepan picked him up, put him on his shoulders and carried away from the ring.
The crowd was delighted to see such noble act.
It takes a true professional and an honorable man to act in such a manner.
Stepan took Amil to the rest room where the later was offered immediate help.
I think it`s fair to say that moments like these are exactly what sports should be all
about.
6.
During a warm-up, Washington Capitals attacker Brett Connolly spotted a little girl in the
front rows of the audience.
The girl was very excited about the game.
Connelly saw that and wanted to make the girl happy.
His idea was to throw a puck to the girl.
He couldn`t do it right away because of an adult who passed the thrown pucks to a couple
of boys standing beside the girl.
On the third time, however when Connelly indicated that the puck s intended for the girl, he
threw it the third time and the girl finally received her puck.
Needless to say, the young lady was beaming with happiness.
The girl said that she felt really-really happy.
7.
This next one isn`t very cute or touching, it`s more silly and crazy.
So during a final match between Liverpool and Tottenham in Madrid, a lady, almost naked
run out to the stadium.
This stopped the match for a few minutes.
What`s totally wacky is that the girl was able to run as far as half the field before
she was finally caught by the staff.
The girl`s name`s Kinsey Wolanski.
She`s an American model and a girlfriend of a popular Russian blogger Vitaly Zdorovetsky.
Kinsey was supposed to show the public what was written on her chest.
It was the name of her boyfriend`s youtube channel.
By the way, before the champion`s league started, Kinsey Wolanski had about 300 thousand subscribers.
After that silly incident however the numbers went up to 3 million!
The video of Kinsey running almost completely bare is quite popular right now.
Who knew!
Although…

Borussia Dortmund during the pre-season in the US.
It`s International Champions Cup and Christian Pulisic in the middle of it all, giving an
interview.
But then suddenly something totally unexpected happens.
Some boy decided to give a surprise visit to his idol.
He was so thrilled, he could barely control himself.
What am I talking about, he was totally out of control so the stewards caught the little
guy.
They were acting rather rough, you can tell.
But Christian interrupted the interview and invited the boy to have a small talk and to
make a photo.
The crowd seemed to appreciate the gesture and the whole situation took the positive
turn.
The boy was never that happy in his entire life.

fans on the ring.
Being a huge OV fan, Ann decided to ask her idol out on a date.
She asked Sasha if he wanted to have some sushi and much to everyone`s surprise he said
yes!
So they had some fun time.
The girl received a bouquet of roses and a uniform sweater with every team`s player autograph.
a huge fan of his team.
As a sign of respect and kindness, Leonard took off his football boots, signed them and
gave them to the boy.
Looking at the guy`s face you can tell that he`s totally delighted.
It feels like it was the best day in his life, which it probably was.
