[Edit this paragraph] Preface
If Baggio is a melancholy beauty and Batty is a passionate beauty, then Rui belongs to classical beauty in our memory roots! Elegant pace, wonderful reading contest, gorgeous passing. And there are socks that have been worn only in the middle of leggings. This seems to be a sign, belonging to the sign of classical beauty. And a long hair and a short hair are like the romantic atmosphere of a classical Portuguese or French. As a football player, Rui Costa played wonderful music and beautiful dance steps with his legs. Every landing point interprets the connotation of elegance.
If Zidanebi is a generation of wild owners, then Costa is undoubtedly a poet who is always looking for the best sentence.
Frankly speaking, it's really hard for you to position the value of Rui's green career for many years. Just when you marvel at his deadly and accurate passing and applaud his beautiful green solo, you may be surprised to find that such a once-in-a-lifetime football genius has not won any personal honor in his career of more than ten years, if you have to give him some personal honor. In the Portuguese footballer of the year award, Rui lost to Figo and won the second place, which is the only personal honor of Rui in his football career for many years.
Compared with other star players with full personality, he just chews gum gently and walks around the court. Rui Costa's running is an excellent rhythm, such as the coordination and lightness of deer prancing on the grassland. He doesn't like another famous teammate of the national team, Figo, who likes to compete with his opponent like lightning, and he doesn't like Brazilian Denilson's exaggerated and frivolous "scissors feet". He has a great sense of time and space, and in the subtle swing, he takes advantage of his opponent's sudden consternation and floats by. He never surpasses others in luxury, and the only thing brewing is to peek at murder and fatal delivery in the subtle changes of the situation. No matter where he is, he is the strong core of the team. Once upon a time, the Portuguese were the brains of Florence's midfield. Of course, batistuta finished Battigole, and Rui Costa created Battigole! ! ! ! ! When the Argentine wins all the praises and medals with a powerful shot, Costa will come forward to hug him with a smile, just like a green leaf surrounded by flowers. This kind of smile is a kind of relief and joy for the cultivator, as if every drop of sweat has turned into the dew of the fruit. Costa is like a behind-the-scenes strategist, watching his whimsy turn into a rich victory. He is a brilliant playwright, and his inspiration has activated the potential of the stars in front of the stage-whether Batty is Gomez or Shevchenko and Inzaghi now.
[Edit this paragraph] ★ Become famous in Lisbon ★
Rui Costa was born in Lisbon, the Portuguese capital, 1972, and started his career in the second-class Fafe club. At the age of 9, Sebbio, a famous Portuguese footballer, had an eye for pearls and brought his promising star to Benfica Youth Team, and the young Rui's football career began. 19 years old, Costa became a household name in Portugal. He led the Portuguese youth team 19 1 to win the World Youth Championship in Lisbon and won the championship in tens of thousands of hometown. 1991On June 30th, Rui Costa, together with his teammates Figo, Bai Ya, Jorge Costa, Xavier and others, won the championship trophy of the world youth team under 20 years old at yesterday's Stadium of Light, which was once called Luce Stadium by local people and Benfica Stadium in Lisbon before the renovation. In the final against Brazil, Costa scored a penalty and the team won the championship. He made a great contribution. Since then, these young soldiers have become the mainstay of the Portuguese national team, so they are called the "golden generation". With outstanding performance in the World Youth Championship, Rui Costa was able to join Benfica, one of the top three teams in Portugal, and won the Portuguese Cup with 1993 and the Portuguese Super League with 1994. Guangming Stadium is the place where Rui Costa's dream began.
[Edit this paragraph] ★ Beautiful purple lily ★
1994, after winning a Portuguese Cup and a league title, Rui began to look forward to his future. He needs a bigger stage to show his talent. As for the way, of course, it is Italy's first-class team that has experienced countless heroes' small World Cups. After weighing several times, Rui chose Fiorentina Viola for a simple reason. Here, he met an equally great player called God of War. Together, they forged a great friendship in Florence, which made the new Viola approach the peak in full bloom.
What an exciting moment it was. In the distant Apennine Stadium, football and purple Florence uniforms soar like flames, intertwined and rise to the top of the world, emitting dazzling light!
However, the god of wealth has not always been attached to Florence, a city full of artistic flavor, just like an opening remark in A Tale of Two Cities: "This is the best time, this is the worst time."
In order to pursue the Serie A championship all his life, Batty turned to Rome. For such a hero who has almost devoted his life to Florence, and for such a star who has struggled in Serie A for many years but has never been able to get his hands on the Serie A championship, although he has numerous personal honors, he just wants to use his last time to repay his dreams. However, not everyone thinks so. When I saw that Buddy sculpture in Florence, which had been worshipped countless times, was destroyed, my heart was broken, yours was broken, and the hearts of Florentines were broken.
This is a gray age in Florence, because they were caught in a serious economic crisis at that time. People all over the world witnessed that moment. The grief-stricken Florentines tried their best to save their beloved team, and the fans were even ready to raise money to buy their own team. However, everything seems useless, everything comes too late, you can only watch silently, silently waiting for the unknown future. It turns out that sometimes heroes are also very sad. It turns out that heroes are just icing on the cake and there is no way to save their own team. As we all know, Buddy and Ray are two flags of Buddha. Now, when a flag suddenly disappears, Rui chooses to stay in order not to make the Viola fans too sad. He silently put on the armband of the captain of the Viola Army left by Buddy as a symbol of his responsibility for honor, and saved the swaying Viola with his own life. However, when the tide receded, Rui was helpless, just the year after Buddy left.
In seven years, Rui made 265,438+05 appearances for Florence, contributing 38 goals and numerous assists. Here, he reached the peak of his career, and Rui spent the best golden years of his life in Florence.
[Edit this paragraph] ★ Like water San Siro ★
In Milan, Costa finally stood at the peak of world football, and the next 2002-03 season can be said to be the peak of Rui's career. When people speculated who would be the new organizer of Rui and rivaldo, Ancelotti made the most beautiful change in his coaching career. Due to Sheva's injury, people were pleasantly surprised to find that Milan's "four 10" appeared at the same time. Riva, as the second striker, hides behind Inzaghi; Seedorf turned into a left avant-garde; Pirlo was transformed into a waist; Rui became the organizer of the attack. Repeated injuries and old injuries this season can't extinguish Inzaghi's burning passion and courage, and sliding from the center to the edge step by step can't change Rui Costa's calmness and tenacity. When Inzaghi, who is passionate, meets Rui Costa, whose connotation is like water, the attack power displayed by the Rossoneri is undoubtedly enormous. From the technical and tactical point of view, Inzaghi's tireless running and Rui Costa's gentle and meticulous wandering, Inzaghi's erratic running and Rui Costa's wonderful passing, Inzaghi's thousand-mile Jedi impact and Rui Costa's elegant and free walking. A killer who is famous for grabbing points, a master who takes wonderful passing as his responsibility. The combination of Inzaghi and Rui Costa makes us realize what is complementary advantages, what is complementary advantages, and what is the combination of two swords! One of the classic battles was to sweep La Coruna with Rui's four assists and Inzaghi's hat trick. His fantastic performance in the front waist position, incredible four assists, achieved four goals for AC Milan, and even Laco fans applauded him.
Also in the Champions League that season, AC Milan10 defeated Real Madrid. Did he tear apart Real Madrid's defence and assist Shevchenko to score the only goal in the 40th minute? But Rui finally stood at the top of Europe when he was 3 1 year old. Although he has this ability, Milan finally won the league championship in 2003-04, but Rui is no longer the protagonist at this time. He can beat rivaldo, the former "World Footballer of the Year" at his age, but he can't catch up with young and energetic Kaka. Although he can play in Perugia and score for Spider. Although he could have come off the bench at the last minute against Chievo, a subtle right curveball helped Shevchenko score. But more often, he watched Kaka's performance off the court and taught what he had learned all his life to the "wind-chasing teenagers" on the training ground. In the next two seasons, Kaka gradually became Milan's new offensive banner, while Rui refused to accept the ups and downs of fate! Turn a blind eye to fat people! Rui is Rui! Rui is a symbol of art! In Milan, it is 10! Therefore, Rui, who plays football under the "Christmas tree", has never let people down, but everyone can see that Rui is gradually withdrawing from the stage in Milan.
An Italian League champion, an Italian Cup champion, a European Champions Cup champion and a European Super Cup champion, Rui ended his career in the Rossoneri, leaving a brilliant performance that will still be remembered for some time to come. And the record of 54 assists he left for Milan will be dusty for some time.
[Edit this paragraph] ★ Dream back to Benfica ★
After the termination of his contract with AC Milan, Rui Costa returned to the beginning of his career. You will remember two days: May 25th and August 22nd. The day before, Rui Costa officially left AC Milan to join Benfica; On August 22nd, Rui Costa scored his first goal after returning to Benfica.
[Edit this paragraph] ★ The Golden Generation ★
1993 March 3 1 day, the Portuguese national team played against Switzerland in the small town of Bernard. At that time, many people in the Golden Generation had been successfully selected for the national team, and Rui Costa, a talented teenager of Benfica Club, could only be regarded as a "laggard". The first national team game in his life was incomplete, and the result was 1 yes 1. It's just that Portugal didn't become the United States in the end, and the time for Rui Costa to shine again in front of the world was postponed for two years.
1June 993 19, the Portuguese massacred Malta, a small Mediterranean country, in Betha, USA. When everyone went up to "stab the knife", Costa, who was kind in appearance, was rude. In the ninth minute of the game, he scored the second goal of the team and the first goal of his career in the national team.
1995165438+1October 15, which is destined to be the shining place of Costa. As the decisive battle in 1996, Portugal swept Ireland at home with a score of 3-0. Many experienced Portuguese fans will clearly remind those who mentioned this period. It's raining hard. According to Allen Keeley, the Irish goalkeeper at that time, the rain was actually caused by Costa alone: he scored three goals and scored a hat trick. The full maturity of the golden generation marks that Portuguese football has passed the painful period and returned to the ranks of the top teams in Europe. In this process, Rui Costa grasped and completed his personal historical mission-as a midfield commander, leading the team to rise.
On June 24th, 2004, at the first 109 minute of the Portuguese-English quarter-final, Rui Costa's right foot in front of the penalty area, volley, shot the ball into the goal in a powerful way-hit the crossbar and bounced into the net. Unfortunately, this is an unfortunate "abortion" silver ball. Otherwise, Costa's last goal in the national team will be given more historical significance.
On July 4th, 2004, at the Stadium of Light, in the final of the European Championship, on the 33rd anniversary of their parents' marriage, and at the moment when Portuguese football made history, waving goodbye was the most perfect ending that a person who never said he expected perfection could get.
[Edit this paragraph] ★ Elegant personality ★
Warm as winter sunshine, selfless and great.
He is the best player in world football.
? -AC Milan striker andriy shevchenko?
There is no scandal or disharmony in Switzerland. Whether in Viola or AC Milan, even if he plays against his old club for his new one, the fans will pick him up. Never booed him, but cheered more than his own players. This is the charm of RUI.
1September 6, 997, Berlin, Germany, Rui Costa received the only red card in his career-not because he threw a shovel at his opponent, not because he raised his middle finger at the audience, nor because he spat in others' faces in a corner where neither the referee nor the TV set could see him. These traditional ways of "dyeing red" are not suitable for this elegant Portuguese. At that time, Portugal led by 1-0. In the 75th minute, the head coach wanted to replace the exhausted Costa, and let sergio conceicao, whose speed and physical strength were better, deal with the Germans. During the substitution, French referee Mark Bata, after carefully calculating Costa's exit speed, came to the conclusion that "this Portuguese is delaying the game time" and showed him a second yellow card.
A talented midfielder, a midfielder born for art, a midfielder with bright eyes, bright smile, free rotation, chic and elegant, a midfielder who inadvertently avoids the crazy pursuit of opponents, a midfielder who is free to send and receive as he pleases, can do anything without lifting weights, and can only watch his companions gallop on the court. Such adversity is not equal. He is indifferent, whether on the bench or on the court, his expression is always calm and calm. In the limited playing opportunities, he is still the embodiment of artistic football and aesthetic football. Time is always the maker of tragedy. In the face of cruel time, moss turns into snow, and teenagers will grow old. Ten years of soul dream, boundless sea of clouds.
He sublimated football into art, and he is God's favorite dancer. Unfortunately, elegant artistic football is becoming less and less. In the classic field of football, there is no broad living space in reality. It is still an ideal, a kind of self-expression. Luck, after all, is just a romantic accident. As the saying goes, donkey drink is not a product, and it is impossible to sell it in a classical way. No matter how time passes, the classics they left for the history of football and the joy they created for all fans will never be forgotten by us ... He stood quietly in a tall building and looked into the distance. It's almost dusk, and the wind is blowing gently. Who can understand the feeling of parting at this moment? Rui Costa's football career has reached dusk, but wherever you go, your persistence in art will always attract us. . . . . . .
[Edit this paragraph ]Piango, Piango came to Bambino.
Piango, Piango, cry like a child, cry! /kloc-After 0/8 years, I finally want to leave my beloved football field. Besides sadness, there are more feelings of joy and glory. As a member of the best team in the world, I am as happy as a child to see that you have not forgotten me. I read the letter and left tears of excitement and pride. All the people will be with me tonight, and I sincerely thank you. -Rui's letter.
On May 12, 2008, Rui announced his official retirement. In the final battle of the 2008 season, Benfica beat Batoul 3-0, and Rui Costa, wearing the jersey of 10, performed well in this game. 90 minutes passed quickly. 18 seemingly a long career, in fact, it's just a flick of a finger, with flowers, applause and cheers. Some fans walked into the stadium and sent Rui Costa souvenirs, scarves and flowers. Amid the cheers of the fans, Rui went to the stands and began to hug the fans who loved him. At this time, the 36-year-old football veteran couldn't help it any longer. "I am very happy to retire proudly with the cheers of the fans," Rui said. "I am sorry to retire, but I am proud of my career" ... in fact, this was his decision a long time ago. Benfica is his final destination. Although he left with an old face, it obviously doesn't matter, because his light has shone all over the world and in the hearts of countless fans. His glory has long been branded in everyone's heart, forever! !
Memories are always so beautiful and short-lived, Rui Costa. When love changed from the past to eternity, 10 was never sealed, and the 10 belonging to Switzerland has been frozen with the past years and honors. Many years later, I picked up the memory of 10, and my heart remained the same, just because I was lucky enough to be born in a drunken year.
[Edit this paragraph] Since then, there have been no classical masters in the Jianghu.
The dancers in the green field left, and the baton of art was taken away. The last window shining with pure light in the football world has also been ruthlessly closed. From then on, football will completely fly away from its most primitive dock and eventually fly to the other side of utility. Football match, goodbye ~

[Edit this paragraph] Early experience
I hope my example can help other teenagers believe that they can accomplish things they never thought of.
-Maria Sharapova
Sharapova's early growing experience is an inspirational story about courage, sacrifice and struggle. 1July, 986, Russian construction worker Yuri? In order to avoid the pollution of Chernobyl nuclear power plant, Sarah Boff left her hometown of Gomel with her pregnant wife yelena and moved to Niyagan, a small town in Siberia. On April 19 of the following year, their daughter was born there and named Maria? Jurjev na? Two years later, Sharapova's family moved to Sochi, the hometown of Kafirnikov, on the Black Sea. There, 4-year-old Maria picked up a racket for the first time-a shortened old racket. From then on, she walked with her father for 30 minutes every day, went to an abandoned park and played ball against a broken wall. She likes playing ball, and she plays well. 1993, Yuri took Maria to a tennis training camp in Moscow. Tennis legend navratilova martina happened to see Maria's shot there, and immediately found that she was very talented. She suggested that Yuri take her daughter to the United States for professional training. After a fierce ideological struggle, Yuri and yelena decided to move their family to the United States for Maria's future. 1995 In March, Yuri and Maria came to Miami, but yelena didn't get a visa and stayed in Russia. Father and daughter can't speak English yet, and they only have 700 yuan in their pockets. The famous Nick Politi Tennis School rejected Maria's application because she was too young. Yuri didn't give up. He continued to train with Maria while doing odd jobs to earn money. After half a year, Maria finally became a student of Nick Online School, and the tuition fee was Yuri's salary. During her months in the online school, Maria can only see her father on weekends, and she usually has to endure the ridicule and teasing of children much older than her. This experience impressed her deeply and strengthened her determination to succeed. 1June 1996, yelena finally got a visa and came to the United States. The family got together and Maria moved out of the online school to live with her family. In June, 2000,165438+1October, after five years of hard training in online schools, Maria won her first trophy: the junior champion of Eddie Hull Championship. After a future ball, I took the first step of success.

This year's Wimbledon is her seventh Grand Slam, and her identity is 13 seed. In the final of 1/4, Maria eliminated the Japanese famous Ai Sugiyama by 5-7, 7-5, 6- 1. In the semi-finals, 2-6, 7-6(5), 6- 1 reversed the elimination of Davenport. Defending champion Serena was defeated 6- 1 and 6-4 in the final. After winning, Maria threw herself on the ground and cried, hugged her father and reported good news to her mother on her mobile phone, which became a classic scene of all English clubs. She became the youngest Wimbledon champion after Hingis, who was 1997 16 years old, and one of the youngest champions in grand slam history (after Seles, Austin and Hingis). After that, she stopped in the third round of the US Open. Maria also won four other championships this year: Birmingham, Seoul, Tokyo and the year-end finals, all in the second half of the season.

In four grand slams, she lost to the final champion: the semi-final of the Australian Open, and lost to Serena after missing three match points; The French Open 1/4 finals lost to the revived Haining; Wimbledon semi-final lost to Venus; Although the semi-final of the US Open saved five match points, it was eliminated by Clijsters.

Maria performed well in two back-to-back games in North America starting in March. She won the championship by beating Elena elena dementieva in Indian Wells, and then lost to kuznetsova in the Miami final. However, Mauresmo, who lost to Safina in the fourth round of the French Open and lost to the peak in the semi-final of Wimbledon, failed to achieve the expected goal. In the second half of the season, Maria was in amazing shape. First, she won the championship in San Diego, and was crowned after the two Masters of the US Open: she defeated the first-ranked Mauresmo 6-0, 4-6, 6-0 in the semi-final and beat the second-ranked Haining 6-4 in the final.

In 2007
2007 was the lowest point of Maria's career. Shoulder injuries plagued her for a whole year, resulting in a decline in service quality and the loss of attack tools. At the beginning of the year, she made it all the way to the Australian Open final, but lost to Serena with a disparity score of 1-6, 2-6. The French Open made a breakthrough and reached the semi-finals, but lost to Ivanovich by a big score. Wimbledon lost to Venus again in the fourth round. Before the US Open, Maria recovered and defended her title in San Diego. However, painful failures followed: in the third round of the US Open, she lost to Polish teenager Radwanska and was out early. As only one champion was won in the whole year, Maria almost lost the qualification to participate in the year-end finals due to injury in the second half of the year. Finally, because Venus decided to retire temporarily, she had the opportunity to fly to Madrid as a substitute. However, Maria showed a new look in the final. She won three sets in the group match and eliminated Chakvetadze in the semi-final. After a fierce battle with Haining for 3 hours and 24 minutes in the final, she lost-it was the best game of WTA07 in 2007. Excellent performance makes people look forward to her 2008 season again.
In terms of ranking, the Australian Open rose to the first place for three consecutive weeks, then gradually declined, and fell to the sixth place in two weeks, and returned to the fifth place after the year-end finals. The annual record is 40 wins 1 1 negative.
the year of 2008
In the Australian Open in 2008, Maria only played as the No.5 seed and suffered a dangerous signing. She eliminated Davenport in the second round and Elena elena dementieva in the fourth round, and reunited with top seed Haining in the final of 1/4. She ended her opponent's 32-game winning streak with 6-4 and 6-0. Jankovic was defeated 6-3, 6- 1 in the semi-final, and Ivanovic was defeated 7-5, 6-3 in the final, thus winning the third Grand Slam in his career. Faced with the interception of many masters, Maria won a Grand Slam title with high gold content, with seven games without losing a set and three clean opponents. In the next two months, she extended her winning streak to 65,438+08 games (including playing the Confederations Cup for the first time for Russia and winning the championship in Doha). In April, Maria won her first clay championship in Amelia Island. ), ended in Indian Wells by compatriot kuznetsova. In the middle of the season, her condition declined, and all three games in Rome suffered hardships. The fourth round of the French Open was reversed by old rival Safina, and then she lost to her compatriot Kudrya Zeva in the second round of Wimbledon. At the Montreal station in early August, Maria's shoulder injury recurred and she had to withdraw from the Beijing Olympic Games and the US Open. In September, he announced that he would withdraw from all competitions throughout the year due to injury.
In terms of ranking, May 19 regained the first place in the world. In the second half of the season, the ranking continued to decline due to retirement, ranking ninth at the end of the year.
