A Japanese Soccer Players

Today I would like to write about a former Japanese player, Hidetoshi Nakata. He was born in 1977 and now he is 32 years. I started to play soccer when he was 8 years old. He was influence by a Japanese soccer manga " Captain Tsubasa". He started Carree when he was 18 years old. At that time, Japan league one (J-1) has 12 teams and he got offer from 11 teams. And He chose Bellmare Hiratsuka now we call Shonan Bellmare. Anyway he was a forward player but next year of his carrer begun, corch converted to Mid fielder which makes him so populer and nice player. My most forgettable events was Atlanta Olympic in 1996. In the group league, Japan bated Brazil. As you know Brazil is one of the best country for soccer. From my memory I think It is the first time and last time that Japan won from Brazil. So we call as "miracle of Miami". when he was 21, He transferred to SeriaA. He made significant change in the Transfer market by he moved to European. If he didn't move to and accessed in European soccer league, Japanese players couldn't move that much players. and we couldn't grow many players now. so he made a difference in soccer player transffer market.
