Book excerpt: Goleador profesional desde los 13 años, Radamel Falcao García es uno de los grandes del fútbol que forjó una carrera estelar a costa de un enorme sacrificio. Su gran disciplina y su serena fortaleza lo instalaron desde muy joven en las ligas mayores; primero, en su Colombia natal; luego en la Argentina, y actualmente, en la Liga de las Estrellas, en la que deslumbra batiendo sus propios récords como goleador implacable. Para llegar al más alto nivel profesional, tuvo que atravesar una difícil etapa lejos de su familia: hipotecó su adolescencia para cumplir un sueño. Actualmente, deslumbra en el Atlético Madrid, y es el jugador colombiano mejor cotizado de la historia. Su velocidad y su definición impecable, le hacen justicia a su apodo: es un verdadero "Tigre".

Download or read book Martial written by Cyril Collot and published by Icon Books. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 1 September 2015, Anthony Martial completed his transfer from Monaco to Manchester United. At just 19 years of age, the fee of £36m (potentially rising to £58m) made the France international the most expensive teenager of all time. Eyebrows were raised at the landmark fee but a goal against Liverpool in his first game helped get the supporters onside, while a number of key strikes in his debut season soon won over the critics as he became integral to Manchester United’s attack. Renowned sports biographers Luca Caioli and Cyril Collot talk to coaches, teammates and even Martial himself, to provide an unrivalled behind-the-scenes look at the life of the teenage superstar.

Download or read book Dmitry Rybolovlev written by Arnaud Ramsay and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russian businessman Dmitry Rybolovlev ranks in the top 200 wealthiest people in the world, according to Forbes Magazine. Since December 2011 he has been the Chairman of AS Monaco, regenerating the famous football club, and taking it from the bottom of the French Ligue 2 to the semi-finals of the Champions League and the French Ligue 1 Championship title in 2017. A man of many parts, he first trained to be an emergency cardiologist, then became an international businessman, spending eleven months as a prisoner in a Russian jail for a crime he did not commit, before going on to transform the fortunes of fertiliser giant Uralkali and listing the company on the London Stock Exchange. From Russia's Urals Mountains to Monaco's Stade Louis II, this biography traces the epic saga of this reserved, determined and enigmatic character. It dissects his extraordinary story and takes us backstage at this famous football club, where the transfers and negotiations take place. It transports us from Rybolovlev's hometown of Perm in eastern Russia to the private Greek island of Skorpios once owned by Aristotle Onassis and now the retreat of Rybolovlev and his family. With rare access to Dmitry Rybolovlev himself, this is the complete story.

Download or read book Fredy Guarin written by Silvia Meave and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When The Guardian, a British daily newspaper, asked its readers to vote for the best goal of the 2010--2011 European soccer season, one score emerged as the overwhelming favorite. That goal, a blast unleashed by F.C. Porto midfielder Fredy Guarín in a match against Marítimo, found the back of the net from an incredible 40 yards out. The stunning tally caused many European fans to take note, for the first time, of the versatile young player. In Colombia, where he was born in the town of Puerto Boyacá in 1986, the goal cemented Guarín's status as a soccer idol. Guarín's future seems bright indeed. In 2012 he moved to the powerhouse Inter Milan club. And many observers expect him to play a major role in Colombia's bid for the 2014 World Cup.

Download or read book More Than 90 Minutes written by Alejandro Pérez and published by Meyer & Meyer Sport. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than Ninety Minutes is an analysis of tactics, signings, managers, players, and club directors' decisions. Based on real examples taken from recent soccer history, the author dissects these people's mistakes, their successes, and how their actions on and off the pitch impacted their play and their trophy cabinets. It is a critical account arising from a weekly study made over the course of ten years of the top European leagues and clubs such as Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atlético de Madrid, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, and Borussia Dortmund. The author presents and compares the processes followed by these teams–the ones that were successful as well as those that failed–while analytically assessing the most important aspects that make up the game of soccer. The book selects specific situations in relevant clubs where tactics, psychology, and the ability to manage a group of players are combined. Without claiming to find a nonexistent magic formula, it helps the reader–whether they are simply a fan, manager, player, or director–to understand the intricacies of this complex sport and to put themselves on the road that is certain to lead to success. This book is one of a kind in the history of soccer literature, and it is written in a readable, emphatic, and reflexive style.
