I learned all about life with a ball at my feet.

In football, everything is complicated by the presence of the opposite team.
Soccer is a magical game.
The game of life is a lot like football. You have to tackle your problems, block your fears, and score your points when you get the opportunity.
The rules of soccer are very simple, basically it is this: if it moves, kick it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does.
The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning.
Football is a great love because I was born into a family of footballers. Football was my life.

Football is a simple game. Twenty-two men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the Germans always win.
I always used to put my right boot on first, and then obviously my right sock.
When you've got something to prove, there's nothing greater than a challenge.
Football is all very well as a game for rough girls, but is hardly suitable for delicate boys.
The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they do not know the game.
Football is like life - it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication, and respect for authority.
I once cried because I had no shoes to play soccer, but one day, I met a man who had no feet.

Football is a game of mistakes. Whoever makes the fewest mistakes wins.
If you're attacking, you don't get as tired as when you're chasing.

Football is like the theater, but without the choreography.
