Sebastian Dubarbier He is a former Argentine soccer player who had a unique career. Throughout his career, he had the opportunity to mark football legends such as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldobut he defines himself as someone who was never a sports fan.

“I felt super confident as a player. I had the mentality that I was on par with them and I was going to eat them. I never saw myself in inferiority, but it was tremendous when you make a false step and they clean you up. Marking Messi It is complicated because it has tremendous quality and a start with a dominated ball that no one has; With Cristiano it was a bit different because he is 9 and as a winger he is not in direct contact, but his movements show you that he is a tremendous player,” he recalled in dialogue with LN.

He debuted in 2006 at Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, where his experience was not entirely positive. Then he played Olympus and he had a notable time in European football, where he faced great figures. Although he always felt confident on the court, the mental stress of the sport led him to connect with music as a form of escape.

Besides, Dubarbier and his partner created a craft brewery that produces 4,000 liters monthly. In addition, he assures that his experience in football helped him apply high demands in this new project.

“We go to competitions, we constantly improve the recipe. Many breweries today are closing due to the situation in the country and we, who started well from the bottom, are producing, per month, 4000 liters”, he stressed.

So, Dubarbier managed to balance his life between sport, music and beerconsolidating itself as an example of personal reinvention.
