Belgium footballer, Radja Nainggolan, 27, who plies his trade in Italy
for AS Roma was fortunate to escape the terror attacks that rocked his
country due to a commitment with his sponsor.
He said:
"If I didn't have a commitment with my sponsor, I could have been at
Zaventem airport that morning. Because of the event I had to go to, I
arrived in Belgium a day earlier, but in Antwerp. Otherwise, I would
have taken an early morning flight from Rome and I would have landed
directly in Brussels.
Everything changed. The coach told us that the
afternoon training session would be skipped and the camp would be
delayed until further notice. So now we don't know what to do. Is our
match with Portugal going to be cancelled? I have so many friends who
work at the airport. I hope that they are all alright because here I
can't talk to anyone. I don't even know the names of the victims, I hope
everything is OK."
