The Legends Match, have you heard about it?
This event has been taking place every year for about ten years.
On September 26, 2022, the legendary Allianz Riviera stadium in Nice will host this clash that promises to be memorable.
A match that will pit the greatest French football players against the national rugby team players. The uniqueness of this year is that the first half will be a rugby match and the second half will be a football match. No one will be at a disadvantage and good spirits will be ensured.
All the funds raised during this event will be donated to the association founded by Mr. Pascal Olmeta, a famous former French football player, and his wife Séverine Olmeta.
The association “A Smile, A Hope for Life” is aimed at helping sick children and supporting their families through various events such as football matches, trips, and meetings with celebrities. The goal is to help children regain a taste for life and maintain hope despite their illness.
“Children should be allowed to have a childhood” declares the founder.
Coming from a sports background, he does not hesitate to call upon his former teammates, who all respond to the call. This Wednesday, May 25, French coach Didier Deschamps was present at the Nice City Hall to promote awareness of the event. Besides his presence on the field in September, Didier Deschamps has urged everyone to donate and support.
“A gesture, a smile, a donation, a bit of your time, there are so many ways to bring joy to these children and their families”
Tickets will be available online or in major stores such as Fnac very soon. Prices range from 15 to 35 euros.
