“This little boy apparently ran onto the pitch after a match to console the losing goalkeeper. My 2 young grandsons will soon be visiting us & I would wish for nothing more than for them to have hearts as empathetic & large as this kid’s,” Anand Mahindra wrote.

The incident took place back in 2022 when the kid invaded the pitch to hug Defensa y Justicia goalkeeper Ezequiel Unsain after his team lost a football match against Boca Juniors, reports the Sun.

In the video, Unsain is seen sitting on his knees in front of the goalpost with a dejected look on his face. That is when the kid comes running towards him and embraces him.

Take a look at this wholesome video of the kid’s heartfelt gesture:

“What a gesture,” posted an X user. “Is someone cutting onions in here?” shared another. “A child's hug is the best you can get. When I return from my office, my two-year-old hugs me tightly and taps my back. Best feeling ever. I forget everything at that time,” expressed a third.
