Di Stéfano Incident with Journalists in 2004

In 2004, journalist Miguel Ángel Lara and colleagues approached Alfredo Di Stéfano after a Madrid-Atleti match, despite knowing his difficult character.

The journalist described Di Stéfano, who was apart from a group of veterans, as 'tapping the ground like a gypsy patriarch.' This incident occurred early in Lara's career when he was still beginning as a journalist. catcross.org

The Madrid-Atleti match had taken place the day before the encounter.
