The agent of the Dynamo midfielder Angel Torres, Andrew Bernal, reached out to him via social media after his debut in the Ukrainian championship.
"There are no words capable of describing the emotions we feel today—there simply are none. Those who have not lived this alongside you will never understand what we have gone through during these long and endless 489 days. From your last match with Central Coast Mariners, images of injustice, media shame, and disgrace from accusations of things you haven’t done. Today divine justice has brought its reward. Time was taken from you, 489 long days, but they could never take away your talent, your resilience, your future, my brother.
A new beginning at Dynamo—a club that has never, ever abandoned you since the first day of your trials, a club that is itself experiencing war and great national pain, so this new journey carries an even more special meaning.
We love you and are very proud of you, Angel. May God bless you forever,” wrote Bernal.
