Rui Silva was applauded by Betis fans for playing the match after the death of his father – Betis

Rui Silva’s father died three days ago, but the Portuguese goalkeeper decided to go to the match against Celta de Vigo and the Andalusian club’s supporters thanked the decision made by the Portuguese goalkeeper, applauding him long before the start of the match. The applause in the stands at Estadio Benito Villamarín began as Rui Silva jumped in the warm-up and stretched when Rui Silva’s name was announced as one of the starting points for the club coached by Manuel Pellegrini. There was another huge welcome for the Portuguese goalkeeper before a minute’s silence for Rui Silva’s father. In this emotional moment, in honor of his father, Rui Silva could not contain his tears. Andalusian club players also paid tribute to the father of their colleague when they entered the field in black shirts that read: “Cheer up, Roy.” On the other hand, Rui Silva was wearing a jacket that read: “Rest in peace, Dad.”
