除左高速佢都幾硬淨
The left-footed winger, known for his power, speed and cool temperament, has long nurtured a desire to one day play in Europe. "That would be the ultimate for me, playing for some big club like Real Madrid, like my idol Roberto Carlos." Coincidentally, some commentators in Spain have been touting González as Roberto Carlos's natural successor. "Hearing that sort of thing fills me with pride and just makes me want to do better," he says, adding, "I'm only too aware that I'm still 19 and have a lot more to learn."
On the subject of Germany 2006, the player known as "Kid González" says: "I see myself playing for my country for a long time, but Germany is still a long way off. We have to stay focused on the here and now. We started our qualifying campaign badly, but we have been steadily improving."
Despite his rapid progress, González does not believe in overnight success. "It's easy for me to keep things in perspective as I have seen difficult times too. I went from having it all in South Africa to starting again with nothing here. My family also keeps me rooted, as they are very down-to-earth people. Everything I have achieved so far has come from sacrifice and hard work, and that's how I intend to continue. My goal is to improve every single day," says González. Chilean fans, no doubt, will be hoping so too. |
