Jonathan woodgate's career.

Woodgate participated in the youth training of Leeds United at the age of 13. Five years later, he was promoted to a first-team player. Because of his good judgment and heading skills, he was transformed into a key player. His opponent in the first battle was Nottingham Forest.

Later, woodgate was selected into the national team 1 under 8 years old, 1 year later, promoted to1team. However, due to the wounding incident with teammate lee bowyer in the 2002 World Cup qualifier, he was refused to participate in the World Cup, unable to play with the team in the last week of the World Cup, and even suspended for three years to participate in international competitions.

In the winter of 2003, the heavily indebted Leeds United sold him to Newcastle, but he could only play 65,438+00 games for his new club because of a thigh injury, which prevented him from participating in the 2004 European Cup of Nations. On April 27th, 2007, Beijing time, English defender woodgate officially joined the team from Real Madrid for a transfer fee of 7 million pounds. Woodgate, 27, signed a four-year contract with Middlesbrough. The defender was loaned to his hometown team Middlesbrough by Real Madrid in the 2006-2007 season and has performed quite well so far. After he joined Real Madrid from Newcastle for 6.5438+0.34 million, he has been suffering from injuries in Spain for two consecutive seasons. "This is a great encouragement, not only now, but also for the long-term planning of next season," Middlesbrough coach southgate said at the home press conference.

"It is not always possible to recruit players of this level. We said that when he joined on loan, it was a promotion and his permanent transfer was of great significance to the club. " In the early morning of 2008129 +65438 Beijing time, Tottenham officially announced that it had signed a contract with Middlesbrough centre-back woodgate. Neither party disclosed the details of the contract or the amount of the transfer fee, but the British media disclosed that the transfer fee for this transaction was about 8 million pounds.

In the early days of Tottenham's effectiveness, woodgate got rid of the injury problem temporarily, and even became the vice captain of the team for a time, and the captain was the glass man ledley king, who was as famous as woodgate in football.

It was a defender who decided the final result of the 2007-2008 League Cup. It was really unexpected. After the game, even the goal scorers couldn't believe it. Woodgate admits that he seldom assists, but he didn't expect to get lucky tonight. Indeed, woodgate's goal was very lucky. In the 94th minute, Janus took a free kick and woodgate grabbed the header. The ball kept bouncing over his head and Cech's hand, sliding into the net like table tennis. After the goal, woodgate celebrated wildly. You know, he is not an excellent central defender, and even left a joke that he made an own goal on behalf of Real Madrid in the first game and dyed it red. Now this goal can be described as bad luck, which brought Tottenham the trophy he longed for for for many years.

After the game, woodgate said: "I think Tottenham played better and everyone should admit it. Although Chelsea played in the Champions League, we beat them. " To be fair, Tottenham's attack is not better than Chelsea's in this game. They actually won defensively, and woodgate contributed a lot.

Since 5438+ 10 joined Tottenham Hotspur in June, woodgate has been wearing No.39, which is the same as Anelka's number. In this game, the two also talked directly, but their performances were quite different. Woodgate, together with the returning Captain Kim, built an unbreakable wall in front of Robinson's door. Not only Anelka, but also Drogba had little chance to get close to the restricted area.

After the game, Sky Sports scored 9 points for woodgate, praising him for his perfect defense and his first goal since he returned to England. After the game, his partner Kim looked very excited and pointed out that Tottenham finally proved that he could beat the top teams in the Premier League. In fact, even in the face of the top four in the Premier League, Tottenham dares to play against it, but it has been difficult to take advantage of it for many years. In the final analysis, the defense is still poor. After Ramos took office, he attached great importance to defense. In June 2008, he bought a lot of defenders at one go, and now it has finally paid off. Ramos's original intention was to help ledley king find a good partner. Now it seems that this investment has paid off. In his four games for Tottenham Hotspur, the team remained unbeaten. In addition to defeating Chelsea, it also drew with old rival Manchester United. England coach Fabio Capello also attended the game. I believe woodgate's performance will not be missed. After years of depravity, the former Leeds teenager is expected to shine again. On 20 12, woodgate returned to his hometown team Middlesbrough to continue to exert his afterheat and lead the team forward with his own experience. Now woodgate has become a substitute. Before the 20 14/ 15 season, woodgate's idea of retiring was once dismissed by coach karanka and his teammates. In the championship match against Blackpool, woodgate scored on his first show of the season, helping the team beat the opponent 2-/kloc-0.
