Remember me? I lived in shelter, left Man Utd and scores last-gasp stunner today

  /  WangSky

So last week we have posted an article 'I lived in a homeless shelter for 8 years before life-changing move to Man Utd' and our protagonist reacts to it soon.

Bebe, former Man Utd star, who plays for La Liga side Rayo Vallecano now, scored a super last-gasp equalizer for his team against Real Sociedad and rescued one point for home.

After being spotted at the Homeless World Cup, Sir Alex Ferguson stumped up £7.4million to sign Tiago Manuel Dias Correia, nicknamed Bebe, back in 2010.

Bebe, now 33, spent almost a decade in a homeless shelter after being abandoned by his parents.

He left in 2014 having made just seven senior appearances in four years and when he found out he was being sold to Benfica he said it was the “best moment of my life”.

But despite his failure to make it on the big stage at Old Trafford, the fact he even got to play for the Red Devils given his early upbringing is a remarkable feat.

Just keep your faith and working hard, everything will be alright.
