Javier Mascherano, Jr. Margo retired.
From the u17 World Cup in 2001 to the u17 World Cup began to show its prominence, the u21 World Cup in 2003 was a little famous, and in 2004, the Copa America began to sit firmly in the main force of the adult team of the Argentine national team. The young and famous little margo is the epitome of the youth of many South American teenagers.
Pony brother of the u17 period
u21 wasn't that strong at the time, and it still had hair
In 2003, he had begun to slowly gain a foothold in the adult team of the national team, and he had just begun to play for his first professional club. Debuting in the traditional Argentine giants River Plate, river plate was played in the same position as river plate team at that time, and it was the captain of the team at that time, Leonardo Rubén Rubén Astrada, who was also one of the famous stars of the later river plate team. So Margo's club career in River Plate is not very satisfactory.
A young teenager in the riverbed period
Because the captain of the same position, he could not get the main force for a long time
In 2004, he represented Argentina in the Athens Olympic Games and won his first international championship. Internationally people are slowly beginning to notice the midfield genius. At the same time, in the 2005 season, Marco chose to play abroad, the first stop was the traditional Brazilian giant Sport Club Corinthians Paulista, fifteen million US dollars in transfer fees, which was not a small amount of money in that era, and in the same year, his national team teammate Carlos Alberto Martínez Tevez won the Brazilian First Division for his new owner.
Corinthian period of the little margo and the beast Tevez
The outstanding performance also allowed Marco And the Beast Tevez to successfully get the 2006 World Cup in Germany, and the little Marco played all 5 games of Argentina in the 2006 World Cup, although in the end, they were eliminated in the match against the host Germany team, but the performance of both of them made both of them famous in the world.
At the 2006 World Cup
After the World Cup, the two were brought in by West Ham United Football Club, a Hammers club in the world's first league at the time. This traditional English team, although it has just been promoted from the Championship to the Premier League in the 2004 season, but in the 2005 season, the final of the FA Cup was 3-3 in extra time, and finally lost 1-3 on penalties to England's traditional strong team Reds Liverpool, and won the runner-up of the FA Cup. It is the time to look forward to the future and be full of ambition, so there are great expectations for the Argentine twin stars introduced by the team at that time. Sadly, the duo have not been able to really play their true skills in their Premier League debut years, although Tevez seemed to have suddenly opened up in the last 10 games of the season, scoring eight goals and scoring key goals in the crucial relegation battle. But The performance of the little margo has always been lackluster.
The Argentine Gemini, which once had high hopes
However, it is not that Marco Jr. is not strong enough to play in the top league, and this club career of West Ham United is not without gains, I believe that there are many old fans like Mr. Pan Xiao, who really slowly get to know this midfield all-rounder from Argentina from here. At the same time, it was not only the fans who appreciated The Little Margo, but also the approval of Rafael Benítez Maudes, the head coach of liverpool Football Club, the traditional Giant of the Premier League, who also appreciated the Little Margo, for a period of one year. Benitez is a recognized master tactician in international football, and after joining the Reds, Benitez bought his favorite players, and in charge of the Premier League, Benitez has sent different starting lineups for 99 consecutive games.
Under the leadership of Bo Le, Xiao Ma Ge smiled happily again
While playing for Liverpool, Mascherano wore the number 20 shirt. He quickly established his importance to the team, his defensive tackles not only have a high success rate, but also have a more secure possession, not only a midfield blue-collar worker, but also a midfield engine that can control the ball and launch an attack. In the Champions League final of the same year, he successfully defended kaka Kaká, the first person in football at the time, playing for AC Milan, and although the team still lost 1:2, he managed to secure a new four-year contract for himself for a transfer fee of 18.6 million pounds, allowing him to continue to play for the Reds.
"Look dead" Kaka in the 07 Champions Cup final
At the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, as an overage player, the recruited little Ma Ge led the team to win a gold medal, successfully assisting the team to achieve 2 consecutive championships, and also made himself the only Argentine with 2 Olympic gold medals.
The only Argentine to hold two Olympic golds
Since then, from season 07 to season 10, Margot Has played for Liverpool, playing a total of 94 games. At the same time, at the level of the national team, in 2008, Diego Armando Maradona Franco became the coach of the Argentine national team, and appointed Marco as the new captain of the Argentine national team, starting the career of the captain of the national team. And in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, as the captain, led the team to South Africa. Unfortunately, in the end, he lost to Germany in the quarterfinals again, and once again fell into the hands of his old opponents.
He was the captain of Liverpool at the time
Captain of the national team, captain of the double team
On 27 August 2010, Mascherano moved to La Liga giants Barcelona for a rumored transfer fee of €22 million. This transfer allowed Margo to become a club teammate outside the country and also became a club teammate with Leonel Messi, one of the double emperors of football at the time, and began his 8-year Bassay career. Because of the injuries of the team's personnel, he began to make frequent cameo appearances at the centre-back, performing well, winning 16 tournaments with the New Dream team of Bassai.
A glorious start
I got stronger and I was bald
In the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, although Marco Jr. had handed over the captain's armband to Messi at this time, the backline led by him and goalkeeper Sargio Germán Romero and the front line of Messi, Angel Di Mariangel Fabián Di María Hernández shined, and the semi-final collision with the opponent was still returned with an injury after leaving the field due to concussion. And repeatedly suppressed the opponent's ace Arjen Robben in a single-handed way, and advanced to the final with the team. However, the opponent in the final is still the bitter German team, and in the final, the final still cannot prevent the team from losing to Germany for the third consecutive time in the World Cup. He played all seven of the tournament, completing the most 30 interceptions in the tournament, the third most passes with 576 passes (89% success rate), and was named to the tournament's list of the most valuable players.
Peter Pan can't take off
As a teacher who came to Argentina in 2009, She is a teacher. Because the 2010 World Cup coincided with my return to visit my family, and the winner was my favorite second home team, Spain, so the real start for me to start Argentina as my third home team was the 2014 World Cup. The first time I cheered for a team the whole time, the scene of a country shaking, laughing, and crying as the game progressed, was deeply imprinted in my mind.
I was watching football at a bar with friends
In the next two continental tournaments, the 2015 Copa America and the Centennial Copa America, he remained the main force in Argentina's central defense, but the argentine offensive line except Messi generally performed poorly, both times in the final with Chile 0-0, falling on 12 yards. After finishing second in the Copa America for the fourth time and losing to the final of the tournament for the third time in a row, Margot, Messi and Sergio " Sergio Leonel Kun Agüero del Castillo announced his retirement from the national team.
Three consecutive times passed by the champion
However, in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, Argentina once faced a crisis of exit, they are still Argentina's Pampas Eagles, he and Messi and others resolutely decided to make a temporary comeback, and finally successfully saved the decline and advanced to the World Cup. In the 2018 World Cup, although the hard work is still the same, but the age has greatly reduced his speed, can not always keep up with the ball holder, can only multiple fouls to block the opposite attack. After a 3-0 defeat to Croatia, he was only able to qualify for the second place in the group, and finally lost 3-4 to the current champions France in the quarter-finals, and officially announced his retirement from the national team after the match. Marco's Argentine national team has played at 147 games and is now the holder of this record.
He's old, he's really old
On 24 January 2018, Mascherano moved from Barcelona to Hebei Huaxia Happiness Football Club in the Chinese Super League, signing a two-year contract. Little Margo is old, but he is still the defensive iron gate that he tried his best on the field. The record of 53 appearances in two seasons is also the satisfactory answer for the veteran on this trip to China.
The most handsome people who work hard to complete their work
In 2019, Marco returned to his hometown of Argentina to play for Club Estudiantes de La Plata, a student of la Plata University, and this year's outbreak in Argentina brought the league to a halt. Finally, today, November 16, 2020, The Little Margo announced his retirement.
He is still a hero to the fans at all times
I vaguely remember that when Little Ma Ge returned to Argentina from China, he happened to go to the training ground under the Football Association with the officials of the Football Association. I had the privilege of being the first Chinese coach in Argentina to have a few words with him, always because the itinerary was hurried, just a simple hello, and I didn't even come and leave a group photo. Although I usually see a lot of stars of all kinds, but that time really made me very excited, maybe this is the real player who has made me like since the West Ham United period, suddenly talking to you alive. After that, I also happened to know his entourage in China, and learned about Xiao Ma Ge from the other side, although as a senior Mei Linger, for a red and blue player, there is some resistance, but a hard-working and dedicated, and talented player, how can you not love it?
Little Margo and Du translate
So what is the little margo doing now?
Participated in online program recording during the epidemic
Participate in activities at the FA training base in Eseiza
He also founded his own brand and football school
No matter where Margot will be in the future, he will be a constant star in Argentine football. Faded lead, the sound is old, but it is still the little brother who attacks and defends both in midfield----
