A great of world football played his last home game on Saturday evening: Toni Kroos said goodbye to his home fans in Real Madrid’s league match against Betis Sevilla. When coach Carlo Ancelotti substituted his number 8 in the 85th minute, his teammates formed a guard of honor. Up until then, the international player had been calm. But his wife Jessica was waiting on the sidelines with their three children Leon, Amelie and Fin, who were visibly moved. Kroos’ eyes also filled with tears. After the final whistle, the 34-year-old took his three children on a lap of honor around the stadium and enjoyed the tributes of the spectators. They knew: This was a great man saying goodbye. Toni Kroos won the Champions League four times with Real Madrid – a fifth title could follow next Saturday. He also won the Spanish championship four times and the FIFA Club World Cup five times with the club.
