I learned all about life with a ball at my feet.
Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.
Football is a simple game. Twenty-two men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the Germans always win.
The ball is round, the game lasts ninety minutes, and everything else is just theory.
The only way to succeed is to work hard, stay disciplined, and never give up.
When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success.
Football is like life - it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication, and respect for authority.
I've never scored a goal in my life without getting a pass from someone else.
Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that.
