In an exciting football soccer match, Real Madrid team defeated with a final score of four goals to one the Atlético de Madrid for the Champions League championship, in the Estadio da Luz in Lisbon. Fans from one and another team cheered their favorites in the Portuguese stadium. All but Jacinto, who minutes away from the starting kick and at the entrance of the packed stadium, realized he had forgotten his ticket at home, in Madrid.

@PeterLimVCF Ídolo Jacinto. Es capaz de llegar a Madrid esta noche y no poder entrar en su casa porque se ha dejado las llaves en Lisboa.

An idol Jacinto. More surely he will arrive to Madrid tonight and won't be able to get into his house, as he left his keys in Lisbon.
