Prague-: he travels from Australia to see his “favorite club” play in the Champions League

He didn’t want to miss it for anything. Jean-Pierre, 69, arrived this Tuesday in Prague, in the Czech Republic, to experience the Sparta-Prague match in the Champions League. Like a thousand other supporters. Except that Jean-Pierre came from very far away. He has lived in Melbourne, Australia for 25 years, and his “heart club“, it’s Stade Brestois. So when the Ty Zefs qualified for the Champions League, it was unthinkable for Brestois not to attend a match.

Evidence

It’s my favorite clubexplains the almost septuagenarian. I played with Stade Brestois when I was a junior and since then, I have always followed my club.”So seeing Stade Brestois in the Champions League was obvious.”Maybe it won’t happen againcontinues Jean-Pierre. Or maybe I do, but I don’t know where I’ll be in a year! I’m old, I’m 69! If it happens again, I’ll come back. But if it doesn’t reproduce, I’ll be able to say ‘thank God I did it!‘”

Despite the time difference, the Brestois follows his club assiduously and is full of praise for the Ty Zefs coach. “It’s an extraordinary team, a unique team. And what Eric Roy has done since his arrival is extraordinary. Truly incredible. He is an outstanding coach“, continues Jean-Pierre.

Museums and classical music

And why Prague rather than Barcelona? “Prague is a magnificent cityexplains Jean-Pierre. JI’m staying until next Tuesday to do some sightseeing, see museums and some classical music concerts.” And take advantage of his son who traveled from England where he lives.
