The pope’s visit to Spain has been a massive success, by every conceivable metric.
This is especially true in terms of pure raw numbers, with millions attending his Sunday Mass and Corpus Christi Procession in person.
At the papal event in the Movistar Arena, there were many famous faces such as Antonio Banderas who shared the stage with the pope.
One more assuming figure, though no less significant, was legendary footballer and now Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone. Simeone was spotted lining up behind the barrier with everyone else in line to meet the pope. The unassuming approach has led to much praise and admiration for Simeone, who did not try to put himself at the front of proceedings.
