Gerd Mueller - legend in German football (International career & personal life)

Gerd Mueller in the German national team made his debut on October 12, 1966. He helped the team win the 1974 World Cup, scoring the winning goal in the final match. He also won the national team's European Championship in 1972 and third place in the World Championship in 1970. He was the best scorer in the 1970 tournament, scoring 10 goals. In total, at the German team he scored 68 goals in 62 games. Unfortunately Gerd pretty quickly finished his national career as he was 28 years old. After all, he was remembered as a great football player. During his entire football career he played a total of 660 matches, scoring 589 goals.
One of the biggest achievements of individual Mueller was the record-breaking 85 goals in one calendar year (in 1972). His record was 40 years old until Lionel Messi scored 92 goals in 2012 and beat him.
After his career he had personal and professional problems that caused him to become depressed and fall into alcoholism. The Bavarian activists at that time were helped him, involving him in youth training at the club. Unfortunately, Gerd Mueller has been suffering from serious Alzheimer's disease for several years now.

    Why did his career in the national team end so quickly?
    Isn't it the fate of many sports people that once their career is finished (which usually happens quite early in their life), they just go off the rails, lose all their money and become dependent on other people?

    That's really sad to hear about past time's great star fall, and being now a slave in their body, while still having in mind the times when they were the ones referred to as those who can do unbelievable things with it.

Reflection

Currently, the weather is very unpleasant, it's raining, and soon it will be snowing, it's cold and windy. Many people sit at home and think that they can not do any sport outside in such weather, because it's uncomfortable, and I have heard many times that they can not do what they want because of the conditions. Also, many people give up their plans when they see bad weather outside the window. For example, when I told some people that I had training in such weather, they reacted with great surprise - "Well, how can you practice in such weather when it's close to 2 ° C outside, it's raining and there is a very big wind". Then I explained to them that "there is no bad weather is only bad clothing" and regardless of external factors, you must achieve your goals. In my case, I want to increase my football skills, and that it's outside, and I have no influence on it. To sum up, bad weather can verify, how much you care about something and wheth...

Football and the most expensive player in the soccer history.

Football is a sport that unites people, allows to forget about problems, gives joy, happiness and also teaches humility. In football, the most beautiful are goals, emotions, competition, and what gives the most satisfaction are tricks and dribblings. I think that one of the best players in this matter is Neymar - Brazilian footballer. He performs an endless number of amazing tricks in one match, shaking defenders damn head and providing fans with a spectacular show. Despite his young age (25 years), Neymar can really boast about a lot of achievements and experience in the senior football. At the age of 21, he was sold for big money (about 75 million euros) to one of the best teams in the world - FC Barcelona, from Santos , Brazil. At that time, his career sped up, he was put on high expectations and responsibility. Over time, he  lived up to all expectations and has become a better player. From season to season, he scored more goals and noted more assists. Last season, he left FC B...

What does it mean to be a real man in the 21st century?

The truth is that everyone will have a different opinion on this topic, but in my opinion, real man can be called someone who keeps both feet on the ground, knows what he wants from life and has a specific goal to which he aims. I mean a person who does his job and doesn't look at other people, nor does anyone tell him what to do. He should have high self-assessment and be confident (but not arrogant), that no one can change his earlier plans and goals for life.
