A short About Roger Milla:
Not the greatest African player ever, intrinsically speaking, but probably the most iconic and one of the most important. African football has taken another dimension and no one has done more for his credibility at the highest level and credit goes to him.
Routes selection: The legend is first, and even almost exclusively in the jersey of the Indomitable Lions Roger Milla has built. Including two victories in the African Nations Cup and particularly the final three stages of the World Cup (1982, 1990, 1994), where he each time found a way to leave an impression. It was one of the first African stars to shine on the world stage. Today, with the globalization of live football, many great African players play in the biggest clubs, but none has ever had radiation approaching in selection at the highest level. African football has taken another dimension and once again credit goes to Roger Milla.
Golf club: Unlike most of his friends at the top of the rankings, Milla, a legendary figure of the Cameroon national team, has never evolved into the biggest clubs. As such, it is a bit anti Samuel Eto’o. After its debut in Cameroon, he actually made almost his entire career in the Championship of France. He was 25 years old when he left the Thunder Yaounde Valenciennes. It then evolves to Monaco, Bastia , Saint-Etienne and Montpellier, between Ligue 1 and Ligue 2, scoring 117 goals in twelve years in all competitions. Milla had an absolutely exceptional technical qualities compromise over physical abilities. He believes have never found in its various clubs confidence he sought.
The best: The 1990 World Cup, obviously, an improbable extraordinary story. At age 38, Milla is almost retired. He plays at the Meeting in Division d’Honneur. Two years after leaving the selection, it piles up again at the request of the Cameroonian president himself. Result, four goals (including a double in the fourth round against Colombia) and a dream journey, Cameroon became the first African team to climb in the quarterfinals, where he bowed in overtime against England.
Roger Milla is still the oldest goal scorer in the history of the World Cup. Four years after the Italian World, it is still present with Cameroon at the World Cup U.S. in 1994. If the Indomitable Lions live collective shipwreck, Milla, he finds a way to score two goals in the last 42 years and 39 days.
