Ezekiel-Grosso

Grosso, after realizing his life as a star player was over, had decided—or rather, had to be forced—to work in a grocery store and food preparation area. At first, he refused and behaved in a delicate manner, but little by little he began to like his job.

He's tall, muscular, and bears a certain resemblance to Cristiano Ronaldo. Grosso is arrogant, megalomaniacal, capricious, and ostentatious. As a child, he entered the bar, juggling a ball and hitting some other boys. When he sees Amadeo playing foosball, he challenges him. Amadeo is timid, and Grosso scores three goals. When Grosso starts mocking Amadeo, Amadeo reacts and ties the game, but Grosso argues that there are no ties in foosball, so they play one more round, which Amadeo wins. Furious, Grosso leaves the bar and starts insulting the statue of the town's founder. That's when a manager decides to take him in and turn him into a great player. Years later, he returns to the town and buys the bar, also having it demolished. Laura tries to talk to him, but he takes her by helicopter to his mansion and begins to show her his inventions. Amadeo rescues Laura and gives Grosso a rematch, who challenges him to a serious football match with the town at stake.

Grosso wins the match 3-2, but the crowd pays no attention and applauds Amadeo for his effort. Grosso is furious with the manager, who tells him, "Stars fade, idols fall, superstars grow old, but managers are eternal," and then resigns. Meanwhile, Grosso is left behind, watching with resentment, surprise, and disappointment as a team flag completely covers him, signifying that his time as a star footballer is over.
