When playing by teammates green, after retirement by Zizou counterattack, old age infamous, sad Platini

Some players, at first glance, seem to be winners in life. But it's not hard to find that tragedy is his core. For example, the generation of superstar Platini, is a typical representative of this aspect.

Michel Platini was born on June 21, 1955 in Lorraine, northeastern France. His soccer talent is, like, ceiling level. Excellent sense of the ball, very good awareness, plug in the ability to shake. So much so that, as an orthodox No10, he can look down on goals while sorting out his team's attack. Platini, meanwhile, has top-notch free kick footwork that makes opposing goalkeepers defensive. Let's just say Platini's goal-scoring efficiency is enough to put a lot of so-called big name strikers to shame.

This talent, this skill, is a phenomenon in any era, and it is natural that the French national team will regard it as a pillar of existence. In fact, the French national team at that time, indeed Platini as the core of the attack. The team's attacking routine, basically all revolve around Platini. In other words, the French team could not do without Platini.

Platini has played such a big part in the French national team that, by rights, his team-mates should not have deliberately offended him. The reason, I believe as long as an adult, should be able to understand.

There are times when normal logic just doesn't work. In the summer of 1982, in preparation for the upcoming World Cup, Platini focused his attention on football, sweating all day on the training ground, and paid little attention to non-World Cup matters, almost to the point of not hearing outside the window. It was inevitable that Platini, in this state, would give his wife the cold shoulder. Against this background, Platini's international teammate Larios, actually hooked up with Platini's wife.

There is no such thing as an airtight wall. Soon the media broke the story of Larios green Platini and the whole football world knew.

What man could bear such shame? Not to mention a superstar like Platini, the fate of Larios is predictable. After this World Cup, the green Platini player, never wear the French national shirt again...

Although Larios's ending, which was a welcome one, left Platini with a nasty taste in his mouth. However, this does not change the fact that Platini was tainted by his team-mates during his playing days. If a grown man being turned on isn't sad, what is?

Platini's international career has not been without its troubles. One of the biggest problems is that Platini has just happened to meet Germany at the top. To be more precise, peak West Germany. For all his skill, Platini failed more than once against West Germany. In the 1982 World Cup and four years later in 1986, West Germany stood in Platini's way.

At this point, some of your friends may find Platini incompetent. But the reality was that the Germanic chariots of that time were really, really, desperately powerful. You can see it in the way they've reached the final of three World Cups in a row. As for the guys who can beat the best of Germany in the World Cup, Rossi and Maradona are special beings whose experiences are as magical as those of the protagonists of novels.

Lineker once said that football is a game in which 22 men chase the ball for 90 minutes and the Germans win. Believing Platini, I had a similar idea...

It is because of the existence of the top Germany, better than Platini's career, did not win the World Cup, is also sad enough. The only thing to be thankful for is that he helped France win the European Cup for the first time in the history of France.

Even putting aside Platini's club record, this European Cup alone should be enough to make him the No. 1 player in France. Even after Platini retired, he is still recognized as the number one French player of all time.

By rights, the title of all-time leading player in each country should be hard to beat. Just look at Maradona in Argentina, even if Messi is so strong that he can barely survive. But how many Argentines think Messi has surpassed Maradona as the country's all-time best player?

Platini was unlucky enough that Zizou's comeback came a decade or so after his retirement. The midfield maestro who lived in Platini's shadow, with the success of leading the team to win the World Cup and European Championship, no doubt against Platini...

If, Zidane's personal ability stabilizes Platini's head, that's all. But these two French No10s, as far as individual abilities are concerned, are actually half equal. At the heart of what separates them from each other is perhaps the mysterious element of luck.

Platini met Germany at the peak of his playing days, and Zizou was lucky when he met the ailing Ronaldo in the World Cup final...

But in any case, Zizou's achievement is placed here, even if it is proud as Platini, can only accept the fate of the reverse attack by the younger generation.

If that were all, Platini would still be one of the top three French stars of all time, worthy of the cult of the world. Platini's misery did not end there, however. When he was in his 60s, there were a series of scandals, especially corruption, which was not only ethical, but also legal, to the point where Platini was detained by the police...

When it came to that, Platini's reputation was in tatters. No matter how successful he was on the football field, it could not hide the fact that he became infamous in his later years.
