Rubén Uría defends his stance on forgiving Julián Alvarez

Rubén Uría explains why he forgives Julián Alvarez: the team needs him and everyone makes mistakes. He himself, he says, has made serious errors and has always been grateful to be given a second chance.

After Alberto Carballo reflected that the hardest thing is not asking for forgiveness but forgiving, Rubén Uría wanted to add a point of his own, exercising his freedom of opinion.

He is perfectly fine with people who do not want to forgive Julián Alvarez, but he asks them to understand that others do. His reason, he says, is simple: the team needs Julián, and today he showed that at this level he is miles ahead of everyone else.

He also added a personal note: everyone makes mistakes, he himself gets things wrong two hundred times a day and has made very serious mistakes in his life. He has always been grateful when someone held out a hand and gave him a second chance. He respects those who will not forgive, but asks for respect for those who do.

Hugo Condés closed the moment by offering him his hand for whatever he might need, and Rubén replied that he will always take it.
