The style of play and the footwork are beautiful and agile, the personal speed is extremely fast, the continuous passing and rapid change of direction under the high center of gravity are good at play, they have repeatedly achieved great feats in key competitions, they are dedicated and affinity, and they have long been the partners of green leaf stars in their careers and even saved Messi and C Ronaldo, these elements are destined to be quite good in the impression of Argentine football star Di Maria in the majority of passers-by fans, to some extent, he is completely the representative or portrayal of that kind of "best supporting actor in football".
Any star has an anecdotes or anecdotes that are not necessarily widely known to them, and Di Maria is no exception. In this article, I will sort out a little bit of ten anecdotes that belong to Di Maria that may not be widely known, so that fans who are interested in him can get to know him more fully.
First, about Di Maria's upbringing and family
Di Maria came from a family of workers in southern Rosario, the eldest son of the family, and the family was mainly earned by his father, who worked as a coal miner. Di Maria was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of four, and her parents encouraged di Maria to play football to free up her energy.
Di Maria showed potential as a teenager and was spotted by a scout in the centre of Rowe's hometown team, Sario. At that time, although the father was worried that his child would be seriously injured by playing professional football, he was still quite supportive of the child to see if football could change his fate and told Di Maria: either go play football and train hard, or dig coal with me.
Second, about the nickname of Di Maria
Nickname culture is part of the culture of football, and many stars have their own iconic nicknames, as is Di Maria, and the most popular nickname about him is "Angel", because Di Maria's full name is Angel Fabian Di Maria Hernandez, with the word Angel.
In addition to "Angel", Di Maria also has a little-known nickname "Noodles", which is what many people called him when he debuted, because his body shape is similar to Noodles.
Iii. The iconic celebration of Di Maria
When it comes to goal celebration postures, many Hispanic stars are "gesture maniacs", and the loving gesture with wings can be said to be a very classic celebration action of Di Maria, which is also in line with his nickname of "Angel". According to Di Maria, the loving meaning of this celebratory gesture is both for his family and for the fans who have always supported him.
Di Maria's birthday is Valentine's Day
February 14, 1988, is di Maria's date of birth, but also the well-known Valentine's Day, I believe [Angel] Di Maria is also a fan about the football world imagination of the lover level of the star.
Fifth, about Di Maria's number one football idol
In the pursuit of dreams, the power and guidance of idols are important, and most people who like football have their favorite football idols. In Di Maria's mind, the person who occupies this position is Kili González, who will be active from the 1990s to the beginning of the new century, playing for Sario Centro, Boca Juniors, Zaragoza, Valencia, Inter Milan, San Lorenzo, a fellow Di Maria, and an Argentine international.
Speaking of Kili González, perhaps some veteran fans still have the impression that he is an important member of the La Liga team Valencia in the glory of the club's history at the end of the last century and the beginning of this century, and the sharp style of play based on breakthroughs is what Di Maria has imitated since childhood. In addition, Gonzalez has a good story in his hometown team Rosario Central three-in-three, and Di Maria once played the same team and coached Di Maria in the 06-07 season.
Di Maria is an expert in scissor feet
Di Maria is a representative of the quite frequent use of scissor foot techniques in modern football, and his scissor feet are quite accomplished in both shooting and passing, and they are highly concealed, which can be said to be the embodiment of the left foot technique. Of course, this is actually another level, in fact, di Maria's relatively rare use of right foot, reverse foot ability is a slightly worse in the same grade of players.
Di Maria said Van Gaal was the worst coach she had ever met
Di Maria's short Manchester United career was not a success, and Manchester United fans did not have a high opinion of his performance during his time at Manchester United, as well as his years at Manchester United. Once upon a time, Di Maria also said that she didn't care about the Manchester United No. 7 shirt, it was just an ordinary shirt, and his wife had a controversial opinion of Manchester United and the entire British life.
After leaving Manchester United, looking back on his performances during his time at Manchester United, Di Maria has publicly stated in an interview that the source of his unsuccessful integration at Manchester United is Louis van Gaal, who is the worst manager he has ever met, just a coach who will show players mistake videos every day and constantly hit players.
During the Di Maria game, his home was robbed by gangsters
Di Maria was temporarily replaced by the team during the match against Nantes in Paris on March 5 last year and was informed that her home was being robbed, and her family was at home in the process. Fortunately, the matter was resolved safely, and apart from the loss of some belongings, Di Maria's family was not harmed. After this, Di Maria and her family chose the hotel where they stayed for a long time.
IX. The Angels' Wills Are In Trouble in Paris
After playing the last game for Paris, perhaps because she was not careless behind her, Di Maria was not unhappy in an interview with reporters: Messi is the best player in the world, he must wear the number 10 shirt of Greater Paris, and Neymar can choose to wear the number 11 I left behind.
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately triggered a huge response, and the fans jokingly called "Angels Will Chaos Paris", which can be said to be a big name in this year's football world, and at the same time, to a certain extent, it is also the embodiment of the dramatization of the internal atmosphere of Greater Paris. I don't know if the relationship between Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe will ripple after the angel's speech. Then again, Di Maria is actually a bit of a big-mouthed player.
10. Di Maria wanted to play in the 2014 World Cup final
The 2014 World Cup final was a major regret of Messi's career and a major regret of Di Maria. During the semifinals, Di Maria strained her thigh. Because she did not want to miss the World Cup final, Di Maria had told the coaching team of the national team that she could completely play in the closed and strong, and then added in passing, Di Maria's club team Real Madrid wrote to Di Maria after the final four to ask him not to play.
Whether it is the intervention of Real Madrid or the protection of the Argentine coaching team, in the end, Di Maria did not make it to the 2014 World Cup final. It can only be said that playing closure is ultimately an overdraft of their own behavior, and teams that will consider for players generally will not support it, but missing a World Cup final and the team is defeated in the end, for players, their inability to play to help the team is indeed a painful career regret memory when they think about it.
