Hello friends of Steemit, receive a great greeting especially to lovers of sport especially the most beautiful in the world, football, and the great stories that this beautiful sport leaves us. Today we will talk about the life of a great player who from a very early age showed a great talent to play.

I speak to you about Radamel Falcao García Zárate better known as The Falcao Tiger, born in Santa Marta, Magdalena, on February 10, 1986, is a Colombian footballer who currently plays as a forward in A.S. Monaco F.C. A player who since the age of 13 was already writing his own history in football, since at the age of 13 he became the youngest player to play in a professional tournament in his country, from that moment the career of the "Tiger" went straight to the top, and had to wait almost 20 years to fulfill his greatest dream.

From a very young age his family believed in him, they knew that his passion for sport would take him far away. He lived in Colombia for a while and for life's sake he emigrated for a while to his neighboring country Venezuela, where he harvested a great talent playing baseball, a very typical sport in this nation, even getting to participate in the youth categories of an important team.

It was only a matter of time before Falcao revived his passion for football when he returned to Colombia. His incredible goals in the goal attracted the attention of many teams that led him to participate in children's tournaments and later youth. His natural way of playing and ending each play by scoring a goal made many clubs focus their attention on him.

In this way in 1999 Falcao made his debut in Colombian professional football with the club, Lanceros de Boyacá and after a couple of years were enough to attract attention outside the country, it was only at the age of 15 that he emigrated from the country to Argentina, to play in the lower River Plate. He did not mind having to go away from his family and live alone in a foreign country, he just wanted to continue growing and triumphing in his career as a footballer until he fulfilled his greatest dream, to play a World Cup wearing the colors of his national team, to make his family and all his compatriots proud.

At the age of 19 he was already playing in the 1st division of Argentine football, with his great talent four years later they were taken to cross the ocean to reach the old continent. He played for great clubs such as F.C. Porto in Portugal, Atlético de Madrid in Spain, Monaco in France, Manchester United and Chelsea in England. He became an ambassador for coffee-growing football in Europe, but he had yet to reach his goal.

In 2014 he was looking forward to representing his country in the World Cup in Brazil, but an injury months earlier left him out. He had to wait 4 more years in this year's World Cup Russia 2018, for that reason when he heard the anthem of his country in his first game in this edition, wearing the shirt with the number 9 and the captain's band, he felt very proud and excited like all his teammate and more than 40 million compatriots who supported him from his country.
