http://www.oleole.com/blogs/the-life-of-andres-guardado-in-depor Andres Guardado has become one of the most paid Mexican soccer players in the history of Mexico. His Journey in Spain have a lot of stories to tell. http://www.oleole.com/blogs/the-life-of-andres-guardado-in-depor/posts/andres-guardado-is-already-showing-his-skills http://www.oleole.com/blogs/the-life-of-andres-guardado-in-depor/posts/andres-guardado-is-already-showing-his-skills <p> Andres Guardado, one of Mexico's young soccer promises, has already started making a big dent in <em>La Liga's</em> pre-season with his team Deportivo La Coruña by winning for the 8th consecutive time The Teresa Herrera Trophy, beating last season's Champions Real Madrid. Although the team of Real Madrid is re-building itself after influential players like Roberto Carlos, David Beckham, Reyes, Diarra, and others left the team to other teams around the world, does not mean that the Galacticos don't have a reputation to uphold as one of the strongest teams in Europe. With that in mind, Deportivo La Coruña has been able to stop Real Madrid in their tracks, meeting at the final game for the Teresa Herrera trophy with a score of 2-1. With their team being tested to the maximum of their capacity, it is undeniable that <em>el Depor</em> has a competitive squad in their hands, showing how well their team might be in this up-coming season 2007-2008. </p> <p> Andres Guardado has shown to be a very good investment for the team, showing his skills by creating goal opportunities, fooling the defense, making creative passes and with the speed of lighting that he carries on his legs he makes the rival team fear of letting him free in the field. As the first player to be paid the most to come out from Mexico[with an estimated figure of <strong>5 million euros</strong> for himself], Andres Guardado has opened the doors for many prospective Mexican players to look forward to a better future as well as the eyes of many talent scouts in search of great players that this country is creating. He has shown that the dreams can become reality &amp; never stop chasing your goals because they can always be reached. Once a player that was benched in all the games, being told that he was not a professional-type player and almost quitting this great sport because of so many doubting people, cynical players around him and skeptic coaches, Andres Guardado has done the impossible - shown the unbelievers wrong with style: beating Real Madrid in a final in Spain and winning the prestigious Teresa Herrera trophy. </p> Thu, 9 Aug 2007 22:06:25 -0500
