The man from Cucuta starred in a scene when the team left for a training session at the Metropolitan Stadium that moved many on social networks.
Two little ones dodged the fences that separate the fans from the National Team bus and ran to see and hug their idol up close.
Seeing the reaction of the little ones, several police officers and logistics personnel tried to stop the children from passing and at that moment James appeared to give them the signal to let them continue.
He hugged them, signed a ball and gave one of them a shirt, although he kindly told him that he couldn’t sign it.
One of the children, Samuel, told Noticias Caracol that he launched himself as soon as he saw his idol to see if he would give him his shirt.
“He told me that he couldn’t sign my shirt, but that he would give me a hug. He gave me joy and I cried », said the little one.
