John-Philippe Mateta, striker for the French national team!
Do you know the most beautiful feeling in your life?
It’s the feeling that John-Philippe Mateta, striker for the French national team, experienced today!
I want you to imagine with me that 10 years ago, Mateta was an unknown player playing in the French second division.
When he turned 23, he joined Crystal Palace.
He had never been selected for the French national team!
Not only that, but when Mateta first arrived at Crystal Palace, he was completely ignored by coaches
when he said his dream was to play for the French national team!
It took a miracle for Marcus Thuram to get injured for Deschamps to call up Mateta to the French national team for the first time in his career.
At the age of 28, Mateta scored his first international goal today against Iceland
and celebrated in the impressive way you see here!
From an unknown striker who was overlooked to achieving the biggest dream of his life.
Everything great starts with a dream, so glory always belongs to dreamers, Mateta.
