History repeats again - 1000 goals

Yeh there is nothing in the world which is impossible. If you are determined then there is no one who can stop you to reach your goal. In the year 1969, Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) presented a special gold medal for former Brazilian soccerstar Pele, who was the 1st and foremost player to reach 1000 goals in his career. And today history repeats again, Romario, 41 year-old, reached the 1,000 goals-mark in his soccer career. And the CBF awarded exactly the same medal to him. “The Federation is honoured to be able to pay homage to a player of such importance as Romario, a player of vital importance in the history of Brazilian football” said CBF President Teixeira. Alongwith the medal, Romario also received a special jersey with the number 1,000 stamped on the back.
