Retirement of Michael Owen

     One week ago, the famous English soccer player, Michael Owen announced  he had made the decision this would be the last season as a professional soccer player. Suddenly, I felt lost in the bottom of my heart. Because he was not only a soccer player, but also he was the symbol of talented players in that golden ages of soccer. To be honest, I almost tore down when I heard this news. I can still remember that Michael Owen scored against Brazil in 2002, he won the FIFA World Player of the Year in 2001. It is like yesterday. Everything is similar but different. In China, people give him a nickname called "the boy chasing the wind" because of his dribbling. Time goes by, he is not young any more and he finally decides to retire. However, he will always be the boy chasing the wind.
