The Valencia CF full-back, recovered from his anterior cruciate ligament tear, returned to competition against FC Barcelona at the Estadi Johan Cruyff
Valencia CF season ticket holder Javier Gómez-Lechón was named the lucky winner of the del Alfa Romeo Giulietta vehicle raffled by the club's Premium Plus Partner, and received the prize at Mestalla last week.
The draw, in which 7,000 participants were eligible for the prize, had only two conditions: The entrants had to be over 18, and have attended every LaLiga, Copa del Rey, Champions League and Europa game during the 2018/19 season.
The club and Alfa Romeo had an extra surprise planned for Gómez-Lechón. He would be handed over the keys to his new car on his 24th birthday (June 14th) when taking the Mestalla Forever Tour with his family. After posing with the Copa del Rey, visiting the VIP Box, checking out the press conference room and the dressing room, he was taken out onto the pitch -blindfold in place.
There, his relatives sang 'Happy Birthday' and presented him with a cake and a VCF shirt. Just when he thought the occasion was finished, the Alfa Romeo Giulietta was unveiled behind him.
