More about 3,2,1 GOL!
It is not easy to turn around the course of a game in progress, it is not easy to gather the necessary strength to overcome great disadvantage and winning seems impossible when we feel we already lost. And yet, there is a growing group of people who live in regions where all the country`s ills seem to have come together; who started the game of life with all the possible disadvantages, who have every reason to trust that this world is one of defeat, and even still they refuse to give up, they refuse to live without hope. They are spreading craziness to hundreds of people: The craziness of believing that the key to success is to believe, to believe that the match is not lost until it is over and that there is no greater force than that of sheer will.
Through our coexistence methodology we use the soccer ball as an excuse and at the same time roll over the grass the dreams of hundreds of children take strength and give them hope. Because Now it is up to us to show them that they are not alone, that there are many of us who believe, that it’s time to work as a team, it’s time to rewrite their history, it’s Time to Play in Colombia.
