Alan Ruschel stepped on a football field again after surviving the plane crash that claimed the lives of several of his teammates in the Brazilian team Chapecoense.
Ruschel, one of the first to be rescued from the wreckage of the crashed plane in Colombia, was invited to a friendly match held in Porto Alegre, where he was cheered and applauded when he stepped onto the field to greet the attendees.
The midfielder's wife did not hide her excitement and shared a video on her Instagram with the emotional moment.
My warrior! My handsome man! ❤❤ @alanruschel #livingandthankful #thankyouGod
It is expected that the player will continue with his rehabilitation in order to be able to play a match again, as his team is preparing to face the Copa Libertadores next year.
