Acabamos de ver un vídeo que remitiu Uli Stielike, lexendario xogador alemán (a quen tiven a honra de ver debutar coa elástica do Real Madrid en 1977 no homenaxe a Manolo Velázquez, a primeira vez que –con dez anos- entrei no Bernabeu). Agora adestra un equipo da Súper Liga China , o Tianjin Teda, que, por certo, visten camiseta coa cor azul da bandeira de Ourense… Unha conexión con Uli Stielike que nace precisamente en Esgos, un concello da Ourensanía, onde xa estivo e onde conta cunha familia amiga. Xa ven: de Esgos a China. Esa é a Ourensanía. Presidente da Xunta de Galicia, Compañeiros do Xurado, Querido Miguel Angel e familia, Autoridades e representacións, Amigo Emilio Butragueño, Director de Relaciones Institucionales del Real Madrid Club de Fútbol, Presidente, Representantes da Peña Madridista “Miguel Ángel”, e doutras peñas do resto de España. Veciñas e veciños de Ourense, presentes neste Teatro e a todos aqueles que nos siguen a través da retransmisión desta gala por Telemiño, Permítanme un saludo especial a los compañeros de profesión que hoy se han desplazado hasta aquí para acompañar a Miguel Ángel: Agustín Rodríguez Santiago, Francisco Carrasco, Juan Señor… Benvidos, bienvenidos, a este acto cargado de emotividade e simbolismo. Como todos vostedes saben, o Premio Ourensanía está destinado a enaltecer a persoas, colectivos e institucións que, ó longo dunha traxectoria considerable, teñan destacado, polo seu labor e plena dedicación, en calquera dos campos da actividade humana.
