It was a cold night in Lyon, so PSG’s Thiago Silva showed his caring side to a chilly child

Thiago Silva may have a reputation as a hard-nosed defender but the Brazilian showed his caring side before the big Ligue 1 game of the weekend last night.

As the teams were going thorugh the pre-match handshake ritual, Silva noticed that one of the children acting as a team mascot was freezing in the chilly temperatures. Silva quickly whipped off his pre-match jacket and placed it around the very grateful kid.
