Chelsea’s midfielder was impeccably selected for the best team in the European Cup. Only two Italian sports players started all seven games-he and bonucci. But jorginho played the longest time, only playing 15 minutes less. It was the third game of the group stage, Italy had already qualified ahead of schedule, and he was replaced in the 75th minute. In the championship game, Italy changed five players in the center and frontcourt, but jorginho played the whole game. In the semi-final, he scored the final winning penalty to eliminate Spain, which was a decisive hero; In the final, he missed the fifth penalty and almost became a sinner. This is the first time he missed a penalty in the national team-except for the penalty shootout, all five goals of his national team were penalties, and the shooting rate was 100%.
After winning Europe, jorginho chose to go to Greece for a holiday. Before taking off from Rome’s Fermino airport on Tuesday, he was interviewed by Brazilian TV on his way to the airport, and the topics were the most concerned by fans. Regarding the final penalty, he cleverly found a step for himself: "I did it on purpose, I knew it was a decisive penalty, and it was over when I kicked into the game." But I know better that our goalkeeper is whispers, and he will save the penalty. So I gave him the decisive moment and thanked him for saving me. "
Italy won the championship and Brazil lost the Copa America. How did the naturalized jorginho feel? "Brazil is my hometown, and I feel sorry that they missed the trophy. They have always been one of the strongest teams, and the data is there. There are very few goals conceded and too many good players. I hope Italy won’t meet them in the next World Cup, at least not too early, or I can’t stand it inside. " Jorginho’s mother, Maria Teresa, complained about Brazil’s practice: "He contacted the Brazilian national team and the answer was: Let him wait! When can we wait? A player’s career is very short. Jorginho really wants to play for Brazil, but unfortunately there is no chance. If there is a mistake, it is not my son. " It doesn’t matter whether Brazil regrets losing jorginho in the current lack of organizers, only they know.
Jorginho recalled this journey: "I got an Italian passport in 2012, which also represented Italy U21s, and then played a friendly match in the Italian adult team (note: in 2016, when Kong Di was in charge, he made his debut in the Italian team, but failed to win the European Cup in the same year because it didn’t conform to Kong Di’s tactics). In November 2017, in the preliminaries play-offs with Sweden, Ventura summoned me. At the same time, Ai Du Gaspar, an official of the Brazilian team, also called me and said,’ We are considering inviting you in, but I can’t provide any guarantee. Please discuss it with your family first. I know it’s difficult for you to decide.’ I feel that Italy needs me more and is more sincere than Brazil. I don’t think it’s time for nostalgia. "Italy missed the World Cup 0-0 in Sweden at the San Siro, and jorginho started, but it didn’t work in Ventura’s chaotic system.
Gazzetta dello Sport still thinks that jorginho is qualified to compete for the Golden Globe Award, and ranks him as the number one favourite with Messi, the champion of the America’s Cup. "Donaruma may also become a dark horse, ranking high and competing". Jorginho sincerely said, "I don’t know what the selection criteria are for the Golden Globe Awards. If you look at the trophy, then I have no problem. I have taken a lot. But if you look at personal ability, if you talk about football talent and talent, I am definitely not the best in the world. How can I compete with Messi and C Robbie? I’m not in the same class as them at all. And our position and characteristics are completely different. Therefore, it depends on the standard of the Golden Globe Award. I don’t mean to give up competition, I don’t want to at all. We live by dreams in Italy. Who knows if it will be like this European Cup? " Honestly, who doesn’t want to take the golden ball? The result is unknown, but participation is needed. Italy’s last Mr. Golden Ball was Cannavaro in 2006, before the Mero era even started.
Jorginho has played 56 games this season, the most in Europe. He and his double teammate Emerson became the 13th and 14th players in history to win the Champions League and the European Cup in the same year. But Emerson’s position can’t be compared with the No.8 brain. He can’t play in Chelsea and will return to Serie A this summer. He is the only player in the Italian team who won the intercontinental award because he didn’t play the main force in the European giants.
Regarding jorginho, Zola recalled: "Guardiola also wanted him very much, but fortunately we shot faster." The media disclosed that the transfer fee was 50 million pounds, which was 12 times that when he moved to Naples. Kong Di commented on jorginho: "His progress in the Premier League is reflected in the tougher confrontation, not as soft as in Serie A.. He can stand still, running without the ball and defending better. He can stand in a key position before the danger is coming. This is the quality of the top midfielder. "
The most important woman in jorginho is her mother, Ms. Maria Teresa. She used to be an amateur women’s football player, the first teacher in jorginho, and personally trained her son. In 2007, after Teresa divorced her husband, she took jorginho to Italy to go to her parents. jorginho’s Italian descent came from her grandparents. Teresa secured an supernumerary, non-contract position for jorginho in the youth training in Verona (then a Serie C team). Teresa said: "He lives in a church with six children, and Verona gives him 20 euros a week, which is a salary, but it is barely enough to survive. Church priests and some priests are particularly kind and will cook food for the children for free. " 20 yuan a week, more than 80 yuan a month, European champion, and so on.
Teresa said: "I still play football, and my father is also an amateur." When I first gave birth to jorginho, I often followed the team (Imbituba, the hometown of jorginho) and played games everywhere. Take jorginho to training camp three or four days a week. I practice him with high standards, stopping the ball, passing long, controlling the ball, etc. He said,’ It’s too difficult. Give me something that children can play with. You should treat me like a child. If I refuse, I will practice him with adult standards, with the aim of improving his control of the ball and sensitivity of all parts. Power is not in a hurry, it will strengthen with age. He will take the initiative to ask to watch my game. When I say there are no seats on the bus, he says he will just walk. I will walk with him. The pains I suffered in the past have been rewarded. "
