There have been many champions with a private life that is not exactly irreproachable in the history of football (and not only).

No problem, because obviously the fun triggers the right switches in the attacking midfielder. “We got home at six in the morning and the next day I scored a goal and made an assist against Werder Bremen in the Champions League. And once I realized it was possible to do things like that, I wasn’t afraid to do them anymore. again!”.
