Zanetti, the 1998 World Cup and that goal that saves a life

Football can save a life
According to a Polish financier named Narek Kopaczen , it’s really possible. After 20 years and grateful for that goal scored in 1998 which allowed him today to be alive and be able to tell the incredible story of him.
The story is linked to the 1998 World Cup in France and its unwitting savior, Javier Zanetti , is the one who scored that decisive goal that changed his destiny.
According to Ole who tells the story, that day when Argentina and England were playing, on 30 June, the Pole was at home watching the game. Right from the start, the match and on the side of the English who, almost at the end of the first half, are ahead by 2-1.
It seems that just at that moment the financier was getting ready to go for a walk the dog and take the car to the police station. This custom went on every night but that day something went differently.
Whether it was destiny or the divine hand we are not given to know, but just before the whistle of the interval Zanetti scores a goal that literally distorts the life of the Pole.
That goal tempts Kopaczen not to leave home: the game becomes interesting with a 2-2 at the end of the first half (and with a splendid goal from Owen) and exceptionally changes its programs.
An unexpected change by a gang of criminals who, knowing the financier’s habits, had organized an attempt on his life that very evening. The Pole’s car went up in flames and exploded, but there was nobody inside and all thanks to Zanetti !
Narek Kopaczen is convinced of it: the Argentine footballer saved his life with that goal and even if after two decades he will never be able to forget what happened. So she also decided to thank him by means of a letter that summarized the whole story and his gratitude.
