Luo Guofu, a naturalized player who lost to Saudi Arabia in the early morning of this morning and scored a world wave in the game but missed the opportunity at the last moment, apologized very remorsefully in an interview after the game: "I mishandled that single knife ball, and apologized to millions of fans in front of the TV. ”
This apology rushed to the hot search, and many fans said that on the attitude of Chong Luo Guofu on and off the field, they will all fan him for the rest of their lives. In fact, Luo Guofu did not need to apologize, because it was his desperate fight after playing that made the national football team see the hope of equalizing, and that opportunity was also run by himself.
This apology made people more deeply feel Luo Guofu's touching desire to win and sense of responsibility, he knows how much the majority of fans look forward to the national football team, and he also wants to use all his strength to repay the grace he has received after coming to China in the past eight years.
I think of the scene a year and a half ago when Luo Guofu was first recruited into the national football team.
In April 2020, Luo Guofu was first recruited into the national football team, which was a very important day in his life, and with a grateful heart, he wrote the following words on social media:
"Seven years ago, I decided to accept an offer from China to play football in China, which was one of the toughest decisions I've ever made in my life. More than six seasons have passed, and I'm pretty sure it's one of the most correct decisions I've ever made in my life. From the first day I set foot on this land, everyone took great care of me. No matter how many bumps I encounter along the way, there are always people around me who come to my aid and make me no longer feel helpless. Today, I was called up from the Chinese national team and officially became a Chinese international! This is a great honor for me. I hope that through my efforts, I can repay the trust and help that everyone has placed in me over the past seven years, although this may be only insignificant in comparison. Thank you for the trust that everyone has placed in me, please believe me, I will definitely fight for the country with a sense of honor and the most professional attitude, as always, do not forget the original heart. ”
He said that he has received too much help in China over the years and wants to repay everyone through his own efforts, and he said that he will definitely fight for the country with a sense of honor and the most professional attitude. Judging from the previous matches against Japan and this game against Saudi Arabia, Luo Guofu is undoubtedly the most fighting one on the field, just like his nickname "Bison", always going forward at the expense of hand-to-hand combat.
In Bajia, he performed better than any naturalization
In his final two seasons in Brazil, Los Angeles scored in double figures in the 2012 season, scoring 14 goals in 30 Games for Figueerens and providing 3 assists in 33 Games for Figueerens, and in the 2013 season he scored 11 goals and 1 assist in 33 Games in Sao Paulo.
Previously, I have counted the data of 5 Brazilian naturalized players in the Brazilian League, and perhaps you will be surprised that the total data of Luo Guofu's Brazilian League is actually better than that of the former Brazilian MVP Gaulat. Let's take a look at their goal stats:
1 Lowe 29 goals, 5 assists, 85 games
2 Gaulat 27 goals, 6 assists, 84 games
3 Axon 26 goals, 16 assists, 112 games
4 Alain 10 goals, 1 assist, 41 games
5 Fernando 0 goals 0 assists 6 games
Luo Guofu is the highest among the five Brazilian naturalized players in both the total number of goals scored and the efficiency of goals scored in the Brazilian First Division. From the perspective of comprehensive football talent, Luo Guofu is certainly not the best among these five players, but the Bison are always the most energetic.
In Luneng was questioned for parallel goods, with the Golden Boot to prove themselves
At the beginning of 2014, Luo Guofu joined Shandong Luneng for 5 million euros, and when he first arrived in the Chinese Super League, he did not adapt at first, scoring only one goal in the first five games of the Chinese Super League.
Such a performance is inevitably questioned by fans and the media, and people are very much looking forward to him becoming a player like Axon in the middle of the game. However, after a season of adaptation, Luo Guofu gradually found the shooting boots, he said at the press conference, the playing style here is not the same as Brazil, I was not very adaptable at first, but after a long period of training and running and playing, I gradually adapted. So in the last nine games of the 2014 season, he scored 6 goals and delivered 2 assists, almost averaging one goal per game.
In the subsequent 2015 season, the Bison became an extremely fierce forward beast in the Chinese Super League, scoring 22 goals in 28 league games in a single season to become the Golden Boot of the Chinese Super League. Many people only remember Luo Guofu winning the Golden Boot this season, but his personal performance is not only in scoring goals, he also delivered 9 assists in the Chinese Super League this season, a total of 31 goals, and averaged 1.1 goals per game. He also helped Shandong achieve a third place in the Chinese Super League, the top two being the crazy money-burning Evergrande and SIPG.
However, this year, Luo Guofu fought too hard, always slightly injured him in the line of fire, and finally underwent knee surgery at the end of the season. The operation also caused the Bison to decline, scoring just one goal in 11 appearances in the first half of the 2016 season. (In fact, Luo Guofu always neglects his injuries and health because he is too involved in the game, for example, in the game against Jiangsu in October 2017, Luo Guofu was replaced due to injury, but he kicked off the shirt on the ground with a look of chagrin, even if he was injured, he felt that he could insist that he still wanted to fight)
In the following career, he was loaned to Hebei Huaxia Happiness, and then fought in the Chinese First Division for two seasons.
In fact, in the 2018 and 2019 seasons of the Chinese First Division, Luo Guofu's overall state is still good, let's look at his data in these two seasons, the average number of goals produced per game is more than 0.5.
2018 Season One Guangdong South China Tigers 12 goals and 9 assists in 26 games
2019 Season One Meixian Tiehan 11 goals and 4 assists in 25 games
Before his naturalization, he had long loved and rooted in China
In 2015, when reporters asked if the Bison would choose to stay after the end of his four-year contract. Aloisio said: "This does not need to be considered at all, I can answer immediately, yes." ”
This is exactly the case, he is a man of great feelings, and he has been there until now.
During the Middle A period, the life of the bison was also very grounded. In 2018, when he was riding an electric car on the street, he was photographed by fans and looked like a native Chinese teenager.
In 2019, Luo Guofu uploaded a video of himself learning to make dumplings, and he should think that this thing is too delicious.
Probably because he was too obsessed with Chinese food, coupled with the easy fat system, his weight began to soar during the epidemic due to injuries and lack of stable training competitions.
However, the bison has always been a fierce person, with the enthusiasm to fight for the national football team, he began to lose weight madly after recovering from injury, and in 7 years this year, Cannavaro praised Luo Guofu: "Luo Guofu is not easy, he lost more than 10 kilograms, completed the incredible task at my request, and was happy for his efforts." ”
In fact, in this year's Chinese Super League, many people feel that Luo Guofu is not good, it seems that his running ability is weak, and the feeling of the ball, passing and shooting on the field is not as good as before, but he finally found his state through his diligent training, and this season the Chinese Super League still has 3 goals. In the recent round of 12, although the Bison has not recovered to the form of 2015, but in terms of his size and running, he has done his best to reach the best state in the past two years.
The spirit of the bison, the tenacity to fight to the end!
After the end of the 2017 season, Luo Guofu decided to leave Hebei Huaxia Happiness, when Yin Hongbo uploaded a photo of a bison and wrote: "You will always be my good big brother, today you cried, I feel as sad as you, you will always be the spirit of Huaxia This fighting attitude I want to learn from you, I will always love you, I wish you all the best." ”
From the players' remarks, we can also find that the fighting spirit is an additional attribute of the Bison, and he can infect other teammates.
In addition to this, the Bison are also a very team player. At the pre-match press conference of Meixian against Qingdao in 2018, Luo Guofu said: "So I hope that this game can strengthen the defense, and I will also participate more in the defense to help the team not lose points." As an attacking player, if he can say such a thing before the game, his defensive attitude will never be bad.
It is worth mentioning that never giving up is also one of the hallmark attitudes of Luo Guofu on the field, and in the 2018 season of the Chinese First Division, he staged a kill in the last reading moment of the game against Shanghai Shenxin.
And we hope that in the next round of 12 matches, we can see the death of Luo Guofu.
As the most unsightly of the three naturalized foreign aides in the national football team, the Bison has become the best performer of the team, and he is also the spiritual banner on the team field. In FIFA22, the Bison 75's ability is also lower than Axon's at 79 and Alain's at 77.
Naturalized Kaldek?
In the first few months, naturalized Kaldek has been on the cusp of the storm, but from the current performance of the national football team, the national football team actually has enough excellent strikers, naturalized Kaldek can certainly increase the strength of the squad, but can immediately or play a question mark, and Luo Guofu's performance does not need to be questioned, giving him more opportunities, he has the opportunity to play better.
And even in the Chinese Super League, Luo Guofu's data is also on par with Kaldek, coincidentally, they are both 106 appearances in the Chinese Super League, Luo Guofu scored 55 goals and assisted 13 times, Kaldek scored 56 goals and assisted 13 times, it can be said that from the data point of view, the two have no high and low points.
Again, since the first four round of 12 matches proved that the ability of naturalized forwards is much higher than that of local players, then I hope that Li Tie will give these naturalized players more opportunities in the later games. For them, they are wearing this shirt, which is also full of honor, full of love for football, and the same dream of the World Cup.
In the last three pictures on the homepage of Luo Guofu's social media account, we saw that they were all about China, twice dressed in national football costumes, the most recent one was leaving for Qatar, and there was a fan with "CHINA" printed on it.
I believe that in his inner depths, he must have a deep affection for China.
