Hvala, Pixy!

Dear Pixy,

Congratulations on your victory!

I am too happy to express my pleasure, because I could be a part of the gratest moment in the history of Nagoya Grampus.

Nine years ago, when you finished your career as the most fantastic football player in Japan, I thought I would never be able to see your miracle again. I could not stop my tears flowing.

But I was wrong. Completely wrong.

Since you came back to Nagoya as a coach, I can see your players running, fighting, and enjoying playing football like you. And they showed their determination and perseverance to become the J-league Champion. Tamada scoring many goals, Narazaki saving our goal countless times, Tulio, Masukawa, and Joshua... All of them deserve the championship.

We will never forget this moment and your feat you achieved in Nagoya not only as a player but also as a coach.

Pixy, Ole! Pixy, Ole!!

Best regards,
Pickring
