Please be understand if there are
a lot of grammatical error.
Admiring a football player is
similar to falling in love. The difference is, when we meet someone (to admire)
new, the feel for our earlier idol isn’t disappear. In my case, I have been in love (admiring
football player) twice. First is with Alessandro and the second is Fernando.
Alessandro is not only my first
love, but also love at the first sight. I was an Eight years old girl who was
very tomboy because my brothers and cousins are all boys. We used to played
football on the yard behind our house. Besides playing, we were also watching
Football matches that shown on TV. The most popular league at that time was
SERIE A (Italian). The first time I saw Ale, was also the time I started
admiring him. As a little girl, maybe I was one of a few kid who could wake up
late at night and watched SERIE A. Yes, Because that time, I’m so in love with
him.
For more than 15 years and in my eyes, there is no footballer that better than Ale.
Even Messi or Chistiano. For me, he is a symbol of loyalty. He stayed in Juve though the club was degraded to SERIE B because of
match-fixing scandal. He built up the mental of the team to became the best and get back to SERIE A.
Unfortunately, after almost 20
years, at the end of last season, Juve decided not to extend his contract. I'm sure he must be sad in this kind of situation.
But he still looks strong and unburdened.
And this surely makes me upset and disappointed. I was afraid
if he joined a club that the broadcast of the game wont up to Indonesia. At the moment I'm waiting for the decision about which club
will be selected by Ale, I found Fernando.
Different from Ale, I started to like Fernando at the middle of last season. With him, I feel
something that people said “accidentally in Love”. Admiring him is beyond
explanation. All I wanna do is know more and more about him. His Achievements,
goals, history, and even his family.
Nando is a symbol of struggle. After a very
hard season he had face, he started this season with new spirit. He attests by
score 5 times on 9 Chelsea’s
match. I agree that it is not a spectacular thing, but it was enough
to prove that
he is still one of the best striker in Premier League.
So now, my heart is split in two. One is taken fly to sidney, and another is stay at Stamford Bridge. I admire them not only because they are famous footballer, but also because they inspire me a lot. both are great, both are awesome.
