(Photo) Meeting Luis Diaz was all too much for one young starstruck Colombian fan | OneFootball

For one young Colombian supporter on Saturday, meeting Luis Diaz was an overwhelming moment.

The Liverpool forward scored one goal and set up another as his side defeated Bolivia 3-0 in a friendly in New Jersey as both nations gear up for the Copa America.

A boy in a Colombia shirt ran onto the pitch during the first half to experience a firsthand encounter with the 27-year-old, and it all proved too much for the starstruck youngster as he burst into tears, although a subsequent photo showed him looking overjoyed as he was led off the pitch by a compliant security official.

Whoever said you should never meet your heroes because you’ll only be disappointed has been proven mistaken by this heartwarming interaction involving Diaz.
