Football Proclamation for the Year of the Goat: Don't... blindfold yourself in the Year of the Goat

Let's follow the ups and downs of football last year through the following proclamation...

Football in 2014 went through many emotions

Hey soccer players!

Often heard,

The king of football, Pele, dominated the world, scoring over 1,000 goals and winning the Jules Rimes Cup forever. Maradona, despite his short stature, had a talent beyond the sky, a “hand of God” who pulled Argentina to the top of the world. Beckenbauer was famous for his steadfast defense and his reputation as a libero throughout the World Cup. The Laudrup brothers, who were originally unknown, dared to challenge the whole of Europe to write the epic Andersen fairy tale.

In the past, there were seniors who practiced diligently, shed tears and sweat to become monuments and legends. If they had not practiced and competed professionally, they would have died of old age in a corner of their house, how could they have left their names in history?

You guys are all from the “shorts and shirt” generation, and have little understanding of ancient history. Hearing the examples above, you might be as confused as a duck listening to chamber music. I don’t blame the goat. However, I’m sure you all know the talented guys I’m going to mention below.

Who is Cristiano Ronaldo that does more than a thousand push-ups every day, maintains his physical strength like the pupil of his eye, and bravely wins the Decima Champions League with Real Madrid? What qualities does Lionel Messi have that he never indulges in drinking, gambling, or womanizing, only focuses on training hard, and wins 4 consecutive FIFA Ballon d'Or awards as easily as turning his hand?

Mourinho, a rookie, but secretly learned from his teachers, used diligence and intelligence to make up for experience, conquered the East and subdued the North, was notorious for his cunning, was a good general in times of chaos, and was arrogant in times of peace. Pep Guardiola was weak at tying chickens but created a hegemony with his bare hands, leading both Barcelona and Bayern Munich to unify the world.

Who is Kiatisuk, who took charge of the Thai national team for the first time, dismissed the veterans, brought the young team to the AFF Suzuki Cup 2014, and then immediately won the championship, making many people bow down? And how did the U19 Vietnam players play, that they drove fans crazy all year long, making all over Asia and Europe have to write down their names and remember them, in anticipation of facing them?

Moreover,

You were born in a country where football is the number one sport. When you win, the whole nation is happy, when you lose, millions of fans cry. As long as you play beautifully and truly, the people will love and care for you; not to mention bringing home the championship, it will make the nation feel proud.

As football players, you have delicious food before you go hungry; you have good clothes when you need them; if you have a low salary, you will get a raise; if you transfer, you will get a “bonus” signing fee; if you win a match, you will get a bonus; if you have achievements, you will be praised; if you enter a tournament, you will have a treatment regime dozens of times better than other workers… Where would all of this come from if it weren’t for the fans?

Yet,

For many years now, whenever the tournament comes, fans forget to eat, line up at midnight to buy tickets in the bitter cold; their stomachs are broken, their eyes are filled with tears, they accept to pay millions to the "cutthroat" faction to get tickets to the stadium to cheer; they only hope to fly with their brothers to cheer in a foreign land, even if hundreds of them are beaten by hooligans, thousands of them endure hardships, they are still willing.

However, the year of the Horse has just passed, today we see this club threatening to leave the tournament; tomorrow another team has a player who sold matches to make money and has to go to court to receive a sentence, do you guys feel happy? Then there is the matter of violence on the field, kicking to destroy opponents, causing colleagues to roll around on the field, oh how heartbreaking!

The hearts of the fans who were betrayed by their heroes still yearn for glory. The tears shed at My Dinh Stadium could not extinguish the belief in victory. Those favors can only be repaid with a thousand victories, and with a hundred Gold Cups to be worthy of gratitude.

But anyway,

The New Year of the Goat has come, I have a few words to call on our country's football players:

I tell you the truth, every football player needs to promote the spirit of professionalism, devote themselves to beautiful football, do not play the trick of “hanging a sheep’s head but selling dog meat” and waste the fans’ expectations of you. On the other hand, you will also destroy your own reputation and football career.

Must practice diligently, wake up and sleep on time according to discipline, not "goof around", indulge in drinking, gambling, going to nightclubs or playing games all night long, damaging health, to the point that when going out on the field, you are so dazed and lethargic that "the blood of a cow is like that of a goat".

You should absolutely give up the "lewd" habit that is inherent in the life of a football player. That love trap is always lurking, waiting for the "goat-bearded" guys to fall into. Don't be greedy for "strong wine, fat goats, young girls" and bury yourself in wine and women. Then, scandals will not fall from the sky, one minute of "lewdness", a thousand lifetimes of regret, career ruined, and you will be branded as "bloodthirsty 35".

Football is a team sport, a single swallow cannot bring spring. Teamwork and solidarity must be placed above all else, do not play the "Goat is sad about its horns" game and tease each other. We must remember the story of "Goat crossing the bridge" because of the desire to win, both goats lost their lives.

So,

While you are young, practice diligently, use the wind to break bamboo shoots, "Lead the goat with one hand", take advantage of every opportunity to show your talent so that you can one day step into the light.

How can everyone like Cong Vinh, every family like Cong Phuong, win the 2015 SEA Games Gold Medal, make Vietnamese football famous to satisfy the fans' wishes. Don't say, "If the fields are good, use goats to plow the fields", if you are young and indulge in entertainment, when you are old you will only be humiliated and immersed in regret and oblivion.

At that time,

Your career path is wide open, your names are recorded in history books for thousands of years, and you are honored as an example for future players to follow. If you do that, not only will you be happy, but your family and the whole society will also enjoy that common joy. Everything is very clear, not as obscure as the game of “Blind Man’s Bluff”.

One day, three Goats gathered together in front of the gate, celebrating the phrase "Tam Duong Khai Thai"

Look, the 5 Blessings have knocked on the door happily "The Five Blessings Come to the Door"

The moment of transition has come, At Mui replaces Giap Ngo from now on. In this sacred moment, De raises his voice to proclaim so that you can understand our hearts, so that we can fight together.

Everyone is good!
