​The suicide bomb attack that occurred in Manchester on Monday night will take weeks, months and years for those affected to come to terms with.





With 22 dead and around 59 injured by the atrocity, it's extremely difficult to wonder just what the families and friends of those affected by the blast are going through.





One player who knows all-too-well about such incidents, however, is Borussia Dortmund star Marc Bartra, who was injured during March's bomb attack on his club's team bus ahead of the Bundesliga side's Champions League match against Monaco, and the defender took to Instagram to lament the "devastating" attack in the North West of the UK:

The accompanying caption to his image read: "What world do we live in? What's going on around us? It's frustrating not being able to do anything so as to prevent these devastating tragedies. What occurs in so many places around the globe makes me sad and it's hard to accept or understand.





"But life goes on and we have to make the most of it and give our best, and live every moment as a precious one. And enjoy life, and fight for what we believe in. That's what I do with all my strength when I remember the latest things I've lived... And all the good things that will come."





Solid advice from Bartra there, and hopefully words of comfort like this will help to ease the pain and suffering of those caught up in the horrific attack in time.
