Video: Senegalese blind boy visits Barcelona and recognizes most of the players with his hands

Published on: 10 March 2013

This is pretty special. This week Barcelona gave full access to a Senegalese blind boy Mamadou Lamine to meet the players and stay for training.

The players were all incredibly warm to him and the boy ended up playing a game of feeling their bodies and guessing which player it was.

Carlos Puyol, Eric Abidal and Lionel Messi were all guessed correctly. Pinto’s braided hair was where he stumbled.

It’s always nice to see star footballers giving something back to the community.
