12、aying the game at the age of three or four. Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighbourhooda poor, crowded area where a boys dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer (艺人). For example, Liverpool, which produced the
13、Beatles, had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball” made of rags (破布). And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall (对着墙壁踢球) in the slums (贫民窟) of Belfast. All great players have a lot in common, but

28、team in the Womens United Soccer Association (WUSA). Later on, she joined FC Energy Voronezh, and then New Jersey Wildcats. When the WUSA was being formed, league officials watched many college soccer games, looking for players good enough to join the league. They were very interested in Jenny, who
29、played for the University of Nebraska. “Throughout that college season, I knew I was being watched，” Jenny says, “I knew I couldnt be perfect, so I just tried to be very consistent and have fun.” As a professional, Jenny relied on her focused but funloving attitude. “In a game, I try never to put to
