"Paris Saint-Germain" sniper Edinson Cavani scored his 100th goal for the French champions in yesterday's match against "Angers" and took the opportunity to honor the footballers of "Chapecoense" who died in a plane crash.
After a precise strike from the penalty spot, the Uruguayan demonstrated supportive armbands.
"A lot of things happened today, a lot of emotions," Cavani said after the match.
"I am happy for the team and for the victory. I hope to continue playing like this."
"Before the match, I knew that if I scored, I would reach 100 goals. So, I am happy."
Because he removed the PSG armbands, Cavani received a yellow card, although this upset many fans. Nevertheless, the forward does not regret it.
"I spoke with the referee in English, he said it was a beautiful gesture," added Cavani.
"However, it is normal, we don't have the right to send any messages or remove the armbands. I understand, I know it is like that."
"The most important thing is the message. The yellow card is not a problem."
