Miroslav Klose (German Player)
Born in Poland in 1978, Miroslav Klose announced his retirement from international football this August. One of the most prolific strikers to have played the beautiful game, Klose, ended his career at a high note. He started his career with Kaiserslautern and one year later got the cap for international German team and since that day he never looked back.
Klose appeared to be at his best when playing in World Cups. During the 2006 World Cup held at Germany, Klose gave his fans all the more reasons to be ecstatic as he scored five more world Cup goals and went one step ahead to bag the Adidas Golden Boot.
This year Klose went on to score his 15th and 16th World Cup goal at Brazil and became the all time highest goal scorer at World Cups by breaking Brazilian Ronaldo’s record of 15 World Cup goals.
One feather which was missing in his cap till the start of this year was the World Cup trophy. He fell one step short of getting his hands on the World Cup in his debut World Cup and even in 2006 and 2010 his team was very close of winning the World Cup but in 2014,Klose and Germany made sure that Klose does not leave the pitch without having the honor of winning the biggest tournament of football.
Klose’s class is reflected by the number of goals he managed to score for Germany. His creative and jubilant ways of celebrating his goals were always a sight worth watching especially his somersaulting goal celebrations were great spectacle to watch.Read more...
