A hero left the big scene last night. Mats Rubarth will not play in AIK's black jersey on the pitch of Råsunda stadium. He arrived in 2001 and after eight seasons and numerous magical goals he will forever be remembered as a true hero. He never complained through the rough times, and he always tried to give the fans something special. Nobody who saw him throughout the years will forget his raids, his dribbles, his technical numbers that made him the special player he was. I grew up loving this player, I grew up defending him in school when kids picked on me for being a fan of Sweden's biggest club. I saw the game against Helsingborg last night (victory, 3-1) and I enjoyed seing one of my childhood heroes bidding farewell from our home. Thank you for everything Mats!
I have uploaded some favorites from YouTube and some images. Enjoy.
