Touching story involving Brazilian and Man Utd midfielder. This story happen when Brazil Olympic teams touching down Singapore for a friendly match against Singapore Selection at National Stadium, Singapore.

Nishok is a gigantic fan of Anderson. At his age of 12, his friends went off to cinema to watch a film. But he resolute to watch the Brazilian Olympic team’s training session at the National Stadium. It was chucking it down with rain but this didn’t frighten him.

As the team was warming down, Nishok burst in to a song, shouting out the Anderson-son-son chant.

What came next couldn`t have been imagined in the child`s wildest dreams.

Anderson responded with a wave, before chucking up his football boots, which he later signed. The lad burst in to tears, triumph over by his hero making such a kind gesture.

Later, Anderson signaled to the press for Nishok to join him on the pitch, where Dunga took a picture of them. Our player chatted with the lad for five minutes before the media pounced on him, asking Nishok about what happened.

"I just felt that he should know that I'm his fan, so I started to sing. And the crowd was getting quiet, and I wanted to make it livelier".

"His gesture was something I least expected. I thought he was just going to come over and say 'hi'."

"His first words to me were, 'How are you, my friend?'. Then, he asked me to sing him the song again, so that he could hear the lyrics clearly."

"I will remember this for the rest of my life."
