A really touching video that starts awfully slow, but then picks up around the 3:30 mark.
From what I can glean from YouTube, Marck Bakker, aka Red Mark, was treated to a tribute at a soccer game in the Netherlands. Mark was terminally ill, and died three days after the tribute.
It’s a neat video. Mark chokes up when they unfurl a huge banner in his likeness, then he goes to meet the team and the fans give him a standing ovation.
