Prepositional pronoun 'mí' with como

[fglorca]

My friends are very nice, and like me, they all like football:

Mis amigos son muy simpáticos, y como a mí, a todos les gusta el fútbol.
Mis amigos son muy simpáticos, y como yo, a todos les gusta el fútbol.

Is the second sentence grammatically incorrect here?
Many thanks in advance.

Yes, it is.
The construction "gustarle algo a alguien" needs the IO pronoun.


You could have said "...y como yo, todos gustan del futbol", but that's a form less often used with gustar.

Many thanks, AngelicaDeAlquezar.
