David Beckham, the Fifth season in Los Angeles, is still the highest paid player in Major League soccer — and even more of a celebrity than a consistent performer for the Galaxy.
Marta Vieira da Silva, without doubt the most talented female players in the world, it is week, week-out the most compelling player in women's Professional Football League.
Beckham, now 36, was the Prime Minister's past as an athlete when he arrived in California in 2007.
Marta, 25, is at the peak of its forces. Tricks, its ability to bemuse whole clusters of opponents in a single movement, the female equivalent to Lionel Messi. And Messi is more than a soccer star — in the field — from what were once Beckham.
Even Anschutz Entertainment Group, the owner of the Galaxy might not agree. Even the lower projection, 6.5 million dollars that pay Beckham for A.E.G. actually playing the sport is more than a dozen times the salary of the Flash New York West pays Marta.
And the visa fee includes wage and to contribute to the project game over Buffalo, the third group USA has played for two years.
This is not a bug in which women are fighting Championships Marta for a seat in the United States and elsewhere. There is also an error to that of Beckham gets what was provided. The biggest problem is that the United States makes Beckham exhibit a of inequalities in the field of play.
Marta, in fact, has played in the same city as Beckham, for Los Angeles Sol. Has played for Vasco da Gama, Santa Cruz and Santos at the home nation, and five years for Umeå IK in Sweden, a country that believes women football more than most.
But, having grown up with the boys in the arid plains of the birthplace in northeastern Brazil, was to become a nomad to play serious amounts of money.
Marta is not very large. This symbolizes 1.63 meters, slightly more than 5-foot-3.
It is a Mpantam in size 4.5 shoes. Has Darts, dances, feigns the ball.
The balance is exquisite, the imagination across several levels in the men's game. And joy is right there with Pelé, Brazilian who coined the phrase of the beautiful game.
At the end of this month, the FIFA Women's World Cup will start in Germany, and so the Flash would lose their star players — Marta between them — for more than a month.
Her absence will not be so you can play, as did Beckham for another group, such as AC Milan. The excuses are not that this was invited to a royal wedding, or hobknob with some of FIFA now discredited the elderly who promised to vote for the prospects of England in World Cup distant attitude.
Rather, it is to play the game the highest level, and possibly to do our best to strike the United States from the World Cup for women. There is the possibility of Brazil and the United States could meet in the semifinals, at what stage of US gamers will no doubt wondering if they will be able to resist her Charms with the ball better than when Marta different pixels and pain with the semifinal the previous World Cup four years ago.
That the game was played in the Chinese city of Hangzhou. It was a great match in women's soccer, Brazil compared with the United States before a largely Chinese audience. Marta scored a solo goal that day which is still in the minds of the US players who tried to catch, Win the ball lightly.
This ended the tournament as she often, as a player and scorer of all events as well. The accumulation of football player of the year women world extends back to 2006, and as the ball, no one has received from since you started. But unfortunately for Marta, it is not possible to sell Beckham.
Very few people ever could. It was a fine player, a right winger who could deliver a passage over a range of distance up to 40 meters.
However, compared with Messi or with Marta, Beckham was on the leading edge statuesque. He lacked the speed, the change of pace is vital. His talents were singular, its plural.
For instance, for ease of fronting for a product, and real charm on stage, football probably has never known a phenomenon more than Beckham.
A glance at the website of the Anschutz will reveal his value to the company Beckham. It is a readily identifiable asset, brilliantly marketed one day and be sure to add an English ippotika in his name.
Even so, I always wondered what the future has been one of the United States could never hope to build around Beckham. Picture of Hollywood, monotonous display as a forward move seller for a whole range of products, is in stark contrast to the economic reality of the times.
Hop across the Atlantic to prolong the career of England or fling with Football in Milan reduced the use of the Galaxy. "No conclusion here is super-star," he said at the beginning. "I will be part of the group, work hard, and I hope to win things. With me, is about football. " This is far from how that turned out to be.
Arriving in the second half of the 2007 season, he played five M.L.S. games for the Galaxy. In 2008, contributed 25 games, but during the two seasons that followed, due in large part to a serious injury while playing for Milan, he made a total of 18 appearances.
Meanwhile, Marta, the US has hit roadblocks within groups. The first American club of Sol, folded. The second, in Santa Clara, California, folded. On Tuesday, with the blue collar city of Buffalo, averages slightly more than 3,000 spectators per game.
What Marta makes it better than anyone else: 111 goals in 103 League games, in Sweden, pretty close to a goal a game anywhere else, and this plays with the group, the Flash, at the top of the League USA of the condition, she has hit three goals and assisted on three goals in a team that has won six and tied two of their eight games.
The only error, as it seems, is between the sexes.
