personal record
Owen, born in19791February 4 14, Countess Chester Hospital. Chester, with a population of only120,000, is a quiet town. Needless to say, Chester's art and architecture have been world-famous since the Middle Ages. This town is even more remarkable because of Owen.
Owen, who is about two years old, will know how to play football after walking for a while. He played football with his two brothers for the first time. Because of their excellent skills, Owen wants to be a professional football player, just like his two brothers and just like his father. Owen got his first pair of football shoes at the age of seven, and at that time, he joined his first pair of teams, the Hawarden Pathfinder Cubs, and started his football career. Owen's skill and speed in the team attracted many people's attention.
Eight-year-old Owen scored 97 goals in the first season of the school league, which became a school league record. Owen played in midfield at that time, but 12 scored as many as 30 goals, which made many big balls pay attention to him at that time. The coach in the team even sent him out to represent the county in the league. In the county league, he scored 98 goals in one season, breaking the record of ian rush. At that time, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham and other giants also wanted to sign Owen, but Owen finally decided Liverpool. Because Owen was still young at that time and Liverpool was closer to Chester.
/kloc-at the age of 0/4, Owen was sent to Lettersell Football School for two years. Owen was the youngest. On the birthday of 15 (1995), Liverpool officially signed Owen, and Owen's professional football career officially began. Owen received a cheque for 600 pounds and sent it to the bank at once.
1996 scored 1 1 in five FA Youth Cup matches. 1997, 17 years old, 143 Owen participated in the professional league for the first time. At that time, the team against Wimbledon scored in the first Super League. Although Liverpool lost the game with 1:2, Owen became the youngest player and the youngest goal scorer in Liverpool's history. At the end of the season, he was elected as the best young player in 96/97 PFA and the best young player in 96/97 BBC. On his 18 birthday, the game against Morocco at Wembley made Owen the youngest player and the youngest striker in England this century. 1998 World Cup in France, Owen scored the goal of the wave of the century and let the whole world know about Owen! Become the world's favorite overnight!
So far, Owen has won the title of the top scorer in the Premier League twice, with a goal of 18 in 1997-98 and 18 in 1998-99 respectively.
1997- 1998 At the end of the season, Owen scored 18 goals in the Premier League and was selected as 1998- 1999 Premier League Rookie of the Year. Although injured in the final stage, he scored a league goal of 18 and was named the person of the year by BBC. Owen is the youngest player in England in the 20th century. He played a friendly match between England and Chile at the age of 18 and two months. Shortly after the World Cup warm-up match, England played Morocco, and Owen became the youngest scorer among all the players representing England.
1In the summer of 998, Glen hoddle called Owen into the national team to participate in the French World Cup. As expected before the game, he became a shining star in this cup and scored two goals, one of which was scored in the eighth final against Argentina. That beautiful goal is hard to forget easily. 1In April, 1999, Owen suffered another achilles tendon injury during the match between Liverpool and Leeds United. The news disappointed and upset all those who loved him. Subsequently, Owen was injured several times, which made him absent for much longer than expected. Now, his return from injury is a great encouragement to Liverpool.
In the 2000 European Championship, because of England's early exit, Owen failed to show his talent again. But after the start of the league, Owen, who came off the bench, didn't bring anything new to everyone. Until England drew with France, Owen, who also played as a substitute, became the savior of England. In the subsequent league, he first staged a hat trick, and then temporarily topped the scorer list, as if he had found his original self.
200 1, Liverpool won the English League Cup, the English Football Association Cup, the European Football Association Cup and the European Super Cup. In the World Cup qualifiers, England's visit to Germany was even more magical, helping England beat Germany 5:/kloc-0! And helped England reach the 2002 World Cup finals with the first place in the group. In the same year, he won the European Footballer of the Year and scored his hundredth league goal for Liverpool.
In 2003, he won the League Cup with his team, and the European Games broke the Rush record, leading the pack with 22 goals. The subsequent European Cup was overshadowed by Rooney, but there was still a beautiful ejection that penetrated Portugal. In the friendly match that defeated Argentina 3-2 in 2005, he won two consecutive games with a header to help the team reverse the victory.
In 2006, the league was seriously injured against Tottenham Hotspur, which ended the efficiency of scoring 7 goals in the previous 10 game. Through hard work, I finally caught the last bus before the start of the World Cup, but my eagerness to play for my country caused Owen to be seriously injured again in the final round of the group match against Sweden. He came back at the end of the 2007 season and did well in the 2008 European Cup qualifiers, but failed in the last draw and missed the European Cup.
In the last round of the 2007/08 season 10, continuous goals helped Newcastle avoid relegation.
In the first half of the 2008/09 season, he scored 8 goals and returned to his brave state. Unfortunately, the second half was plagued by injuries, and the goal shortage began for more than four months. Newcastle suffered repeated defeats and were relegated at the end of the season.
2009-07-04 Manchester United officially announced the signing of Owen. On the morning of July 4 th, Beijing time, on July 3 rd, British time, Manchester United officially announced that Michael Owen had signed a two-year contract and Owen, whose contract with Newcastle expired, was free to join the Red Devils. The news that Owen transferred to Manchester United was exposed by the media yesterday. On the morning of July 3, local time, Owen successfully arrived at Manchester United training base for medical examination.
Manchester United officials did not disclose Owen's exact salary, but the British media generally speculated that Owen's weekly salary would be 50 thousand pounds, half that of Newcastle. In addition, Manchester United will give him a considerable bonus according to the number of appearances and goals.
After signing Owen, Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson immediately expressed his welcome to Owen. "There is no doubt that Michael is a world-class player. He has played for many big teams and always has a very convincing ability. Owen came to Manchester United to fight with us and fight for our ideals and pursuits. "
Owen, who is no longer young, was very excited after signing. "I tried to contact many clubs before, and the results were not very satisfactory." To my great surprise, on Wednesday afternoon, Ferguson called and invited me to have breakfast the next day. In the subsequent meeting, he said that Manchester United really wanted me to come to Old Trafford. After I heard his words, I agreed without even a second's hesitation. "
Later, Owen also expressed his gratitude to Sir Alex Ferguson for meeting him. "I am honored that Ferguson trusts me, and I will repay Ferguson and everyone's support with more goals."
"For me, this is simply an excellent opportunity. I hope that through my own efforts, everyone can get to know me again. I can't wait to put on the Manchester United shirt and become a member of the Red Devils. " Owen, who has been away from war for a long time, is also very optimistic about the future. "I have many friends at Old Trafford, and I believe my future life at Carrington base will be very happy."
