Simeone's son sweeps Third

In the Simeone family, soccer is a religion. El Cholo has instilled in his children the fervor for this sport and they see in their father a reference, a mirror in which to look at themselves to try to follow a path carved out of sacrifice and passion. Giovanni, the eldest, triumph in Sardinian paradise aboard the Cagliari of Serie A. Giuliano, the little one, is training in the lower categories of Atlético de Madrid, a club that his father trains. On another island of turquoise sea he plays the middle one, Gianluca Simeone, which opened November by scoring a hat-trick for C.D. Ibiza, team belonging to the third Balearic division.

Gianluca is happy in Ibiza. His indelible smile after three goals scored against Soller says it all. The Can Misses stadium hosted the great performance of the Argentine striker and he himself was in charge of detailing how the goals were a full striker is x-rayed: “The first comes from a rejection of Jaume, I stay hand in hand and I could throw it from Vaseline. The second, of an error of the rival, I positioned myself well and I put it glued to the stick; and the third was a center in Moreno that I chopped my head“.

How could it be otherwise, his father, Diego Pablo Simeone, did not hesitate to congratulate his son after the great performance. Also, the Cholo the progression of the young person is not lost 22 year old player. “He has me under control because he can see my matches on the club's official website, which uploads them to YouTube,” says Gianluca.

It is not the first hat-trick made by the Buenos Aires footballer. Last season, also in Balearic territory, played a great game with San Rafael. “I already have two balls signed by my teammates and it is a nice memory that I take with me. I hope I can achieve many more,” he says.

Gianluca has the whole future ahead of him. Being under his father's orders would be, for him, “very nice” but it would be “very strange” for him.. Who knows what his sports career will bring him and if his father, whom he adores, ends up yelling at him from the band one day.
