No Sweet without Sweat
Hazard had
been interested in football as he was a child, which was derived from a UEFA champion’s
league final between Manchester United and Bayern Munich in 1999. He was
attracted by the excellent skills of the players and the tense game. And then,
he decided to become a professional football player.
Unfortunately,
compared with his peers, Hazard was not strong or tall enough. Most of his
classmates scorned him on his folly and thought he would not be successful about
his ambitions. But he did not think so. He still insisted on his dream when
others mocked him, and believed it.
Once, when
he was knocked down by the players no one even helped him up, because everyone
looked down upon this small boy from Belgium.
However, failures did not make him give up his dream but strengthened
his fortitude. He knew that he must to practice harder than others to achieve
his goal. So, he decided to go his own way to enhance football skills when he
finished classes every day no matter the weather was. His clothes were always wet
because he practiced tirelessly. Even in the evening, he would try to play
football in his family yard.
Many a
little makes a mickle. One year later,
Hazard signed up to the university campus league and he amazed all of the people
who sited around the ground with a single brilliant feat, when a goal on a
penalty kicked by him that is second goal of the match which was the turning
point on a tense night for the hosts. No one knew what he had experienced when
he surprised audiences. On the end of
the season, he had attracted much attention from many professional football clubs.
He proved himself by his sweat and also proved “No sweet without sweat.”
