LIFE LESSON TO LEARN FROM LIONEL MESSI THE “LION OF SORT” WHO SETS ACME TARGETS AND BREAKS HIS OWN RECORDS
·
*His unprecedented Supercopa de Espana Exploit Re-visited
“Success requires wisdom and wisdom is the application
of skill, for your skill is your most trusted weapon” –Late Wizard of
sculpturing/painting, Obong Ambassador Fred Archibong 1998 interview with the
highly respected THISDAY STYLE MAGAZINE
When it
comes to the discussion centered on “WHO IS WORLD’S GREATEST FOOTBALLER EVER”
a lot of global argument usually preceded such subject
The world
soccer ruling body, jointly names Pele and Maradona as world best footballers
of last century
Today, two
names have been added to the best footballer ever, in person of Christian
Ronaldo and Lionel Messi-together, the quadruple makes up world best ever
But
individually, this wordsmith has often defended his choice of who is the best,
and I have never hidden my love of Pele
being the best, the Brazilian speaks to the ball like none of them, it is not
just about scoring, he eats and is often very “Romantic” with the round leather game
History
books told us that when a certain legend called Weldener de Brito, first
discovered Pele and brought him to Sao Paolo, he was so confident and declared
the young boy to the amazement of the club directors that “This boy will be the
greatest player ever”
It was not
so long before De Briti was proved right, when the young Pele scored a
remarkable goal in his debut encounter for the Brazilian national team, even
before his teenage level
He was to
proceed further to be winner of four world cups, and in his lustrous career
scored record of 1,280 goals in a record 1,360 appearances-averaging a goal in
ever international match he played for his beloved country
Today though
the world will not argue over the place of Pele-,who was a complete athlete,
blessed with abundance skill, balance and deft dribbling abilities-what the
world will likely argue about is the place of
Messi, also as the best of his generation
One must not
necessarily be a fan of Barcelona or Argentina to give Messi his place of
dignity in annals of world best hall of fame, here is a man that sets great
standard for himself and breaks his own record, only last week the list of
three new records that Messi sets was released, in case you missed out of it,
