Twenty-twenty years supporting a club and last night he was finally able to see FC Nantes in real life.

Ndiawar Diongue, a Senegalese, was Thursday evening in Nantes to see the Europa League match against Qarabag.

Victory of the Nantes 2-1 at the end of an incredible scenario.

And in the stands, this Senegalese who discovers the lawn for the first time thanks to the help of Nantes supporters.

A surge of solidarity launched on social networks, with a kitty and lots of people who found him a place to host him and make him discover the city.

This is the first time he has come to France.

With the key to an evening that he will remember all his life.
