Unforgiven

Dani Benítez has swapped the applause on a football pitch for the simple routine of the fertiliser company where he works. He had everything going for him to succeed. In fact, he ended up playing in the First Division and became an idol for the Granada fans. Until one day, after a match, he tested positive for cocaine and that was when his career was cut short. That was 10 years ago and since that day he continues to see himself singled out in his public life and continues to wonder why there are mistakes that are not forgiven. Julio Alberto feels something similar. The legendary player of Atleti de Madrid, FC Barcelona and the Spanish national team, fell into drugs more than 30 years ago when he had already left football. A few months after leaving the routine of training and matches, a series of bad decisions that almost cost him his life marked him forever in the eyes of fans and the press.
