A great striker retires after two decades scoring goals

Samuel Eto'o is retiring from professional football after scoring more that three hundred goals (man such a figure!!). This event brings me back to the day when I feel in love with the European National championships.

I started watching football back in 1999, on that time I liked to watch the Italian and the Spanish championship. My favorite teams back there were the Italians, since they practiced a very intense football, a style full of strategy and space coverage.

Later on I started to follow more closely the Spanish championship, and among them the great short passing style of FC Barcelona caught my attention, it was a hard team to be fan of since they were not a winning team... But I loved their game proposal and backed them even when they got bested even by small clubs.

On that time there was a promising striker in the biggest rival of FC Barcelona squad, but the Real Madrid is a club that not only pay attention to talent in order to measure a player's worth... That's a decision they will regret later on😂

Then the Real Madrid decided to sell 50% of the federative rights of Eto'o to RCD Mallorca, on that club Eto'o won a Copa del Rey Championship, he scored 54 goals becoming the top scorer of RCD Mallorca in La Liga.

Then he signed a contract with my beloved FC Barcelona in 2004.... The year when FC Barcelona was reborn into a fearsome club that each campaign fights for every title on the table. Here Eto'o gave us sublime goals and I want to share with you a video with some of them.
