The Eastern Republic of Uruguay, referred to as Uruguay, is located in southeastern South America, bordering Brazil to the north, Argentina to the west, and the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast, and most of the country's land is flat and suitable for grazing. The land area is 176,000 square kilometers, equivalent to the area of Guizhou Province in mainland China, and the population is 3.4 million, equivalent to the total population of Lüliang City in Shanxi Province. It is in such a country with a small land area and a small population that the four gods that are well-known in the world have emerged in different eras.
Diego Fran, the first shenfeng
For this group of fans now, the earliest Uruguayan striker was Diego Fran. In 2002, Diego Fran came to The Premier League giants Manchester United for a transfer fee of 7 million pounds, when Manchester United was still the hegemon of the Premier League, but Fran, who debuted in Europe, showed incompatibility, his two years at Manchester United were not successful, but after coming to La Liga he grew into a generation of divine strikers.
He has won the La Liga Golden Boot both at Villarreal and Atletico. He was also the first player after Ronaldo to score more than 30 goals in a single season in La Liga. He helped Huang Reach the Champions League Final Four and helped Atletico win the Europa League and the UEFA Super Cup. In the La Liga top scorer list, Fran has been in the top three for many years.
Suarez & Cavani, the second generation of Shenfeng
Both were also born in 1987 and both grew up to become world-renowned strikers. Born in Palermo, the famous "black shop" of Serie A, Cavani has achieved great success in Both Serie A (Palermo, Naples) and Ligue 1 (Paris Saint-Germain). In his three years at Napoli he was selected for the All-NGC team twice in a row; In the 7 years of Ligue 1, he won the Golden Boot of Ligue 1, and the French championships were even softer.
Suarez's career has been successful in the Dutch First Division, Premier League and La Liga, especially in the seven years of La Liga Barca, where he was invincible with the MSN combination of Messi and Neymar, winning six titles. Even Su Ya, who was 35 years old last season, still scored 13 goals for Atletico.
Suarez and Cavani also played 132 games for the national team, tied for second place in history.
Daven Nunez, the new generation of Shen Feng
The €100 million transfer fee, which sets a record for a Uruguayan player to transfer, is 22 years old but is known as a combination of Suarez and Cavani, saying he has "The explosiveness, speed and determination of Suarez" and "the skill, spirituality and ability of Cavani". Daven nunez has been excellent at Benfica, but it remains to be seen whether he can quickly adapt to the Fast-Paced, High-Confrontational Style of the Premier League after landing in the Top Five.
Uruguay's generation of sharp edges has really made people feel that such a small country with a small geographical area and population can have so many of the world's top shooters.
