Boy writes to Rashford telling him not to feel sad
    2021-07-15  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

A YOUNG boy has written an adorable note to Marcus Rashford after the crushing Euros defeat — telling him not to feel sad.

Samantha Rosier said that her son had written to the soccer legend after learning of England’s last-minute loss in the final Sunday, and she shared a picture of the letter online.

In the letter, the 9-year-old boy said how he had been inspired by Rashford in the past, and has now learned a lesson about bravery from the Manchester United player.

He said that he hopes he won’t be too sad following the defeat, adding that Rashford will “always be a hero” in his eyes.

The letter, written in impressively neat handwriting, reads: “Dear Marcus Rashford, I hope you won’t be sad for too long because you are such a good person.

“Last year you inspired me to help people less fortunate, then last night you inspired me again, to always be brave.

“I’m proud of you, you will always be a hero.”

After Rosier shared the letter online, other Twitter users flocked to the post to share their support for the team.

Gary Scott wrote: “This is how the rest of the civilized country feels.

“You lads made 99.99 percent of this country proud and never let the ignorant ones get in the way when young people like this are the ones you really do inspire.”

And Robert Wills added: “Wow! Adults have a lot to learn from kids. Your son is one of such kids. You should be proud of him, he’s already a legend!”

While a third user, named Louisa, wrote: “What a lovely thought, I am truly ashamed of the way some of the English fans have behaved. The racial abuse is absolutely disgusting.

“I was sickened by some of the comments I saw, I just hope they know that the mass majority of us are right behind them and proud of them.”
