The image has spread like wildfire in cyberspace over the last week: a national team fan in the front row of a crowded area of German fans celebrating the goal that qualified Spain for the semi-finals of the European Championships like an absolute madman.

It happened last Friday in Stuttgart and Alexander Peatow, the protagonist of the sequence, this Tuesday in Munich was able to meet the idols he was cheering on, but this time in person, not on a screen.

Unai Simón, Dani Carvajal and Robin Le Normand shared a friendly moment a few hours before the match against France in the Bavarian capital during which they confessed that, of course, the video has been one of the most commented in the internationals' whatsapp group.

"Although I was born in Germany, I am 50% Spanish because my parents have a house in Malaga and I go there a lot," says Alexander, who says that when the match was over he shook hands sportingly with the fans of the German national team surrounding him.

It has been an unforgettable tournament for this German by birth, but Spaniard at heart, who on Tuesday recreated his now famous cries of joy, this time surrounded by fans of the national team.

A more than necessary rehearsal for Alex, who for the match against France will be able to cheer on Spain's goals from the stands in Munich thanks to the fact that the national team players have decided to take advantage of his good vibes and invite him to watch the match live.
