Soft-spoken Klose sets scoring record

By Reuters | China Daily | Updated: 2014-07-10 07:18

Germany striker Miroslav Klose became the World Cup's all-time leading scorer with his 16th goal during its semifinal against Brazil on Tuesday, eclipsing former Brazil striker Ronaldo with his 23rd-minute strike.

The 36-year-old, playing in his fourth World Cup, had already equaled Ronaldo on 15 goals with his dramatic strike in Germany's 2-2 draw against Ghana in the group stage before moving ahead on Tuesday in the match in Belo Horizonte.

The goal was his first in a World Cup semifinal and one of his most important because it put Germany 2-0 ahead.

"I don't think I can really measure what it all means just yet," said Klose, who said he was only doing his job.

"I'm a striker and strikers want to score goals. And naturally I want to stay on top of the scorers list as long as possible."

A humble man who plays for Lazio after earlier spells at Kaiserslautern, Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich, Klose is the best German striker of his generation. whose tremendous sense of fair play has won him admirers in his homeland and in Italy.

The soft-spoken striker, who was born in Poland and spoke almost no German when he moved to Germany with his family as an eight-year-old in 1986, is the antithesis of flamboyant and the epitome of Germany's star-less World Cup teams.

He has been consistently lethal in front of the goal in his four World Cups and contributing to his record-breaking tally has been the fact he has played in 23 matches due to Germany having reached the final and semifinals twice each in that time.

While he is for the most part understated, Klose used to let loose with a spectacular somersault earlier in his career to celebrate important goals.

It was a trick he stopped performing until he did it again after equaling Ronaldo's record.

He said he opted not to do a sommersault in Belo Horizonte after breaking Ronaldo's record in the semifinal because he picked up a slight injury just before scoring the goal.

"I first tried to score with my left foot but got a knock and so I didn't really feel like I was capable of doing one," Klose said when asked why he didn't do the mid-air flip on Tuesday. "So I celebrated the normal way."

His coach, Joachim Loew, who used Klose sparingly in the first four matches, was full of praise for the achievement.

"It really means a lot to all of us," said Loew. "It is something really great. If you have scored the most goals in the history of the World Cup, it's more than sensational. He really deserves it."

As well as being the World Cup record scorer Klos is Germany's all-time leading scorer with 71 goals in 136 games.

A trained carpenter, he has been hammering in goals for years. He spent five years as a child living in France, where his father, Josef, played for AJ Auxerre.

Klose headed the winner on his Germany debut to earn a 2-1 victory over Albania in 2001 that avoided an embarrassing draw.

He began his World Cup career in 2002 with five headed goals as underdog Germany reached the final, where it lost 2-0 to Brazil with Ronaldo scoring twice to reach eight for the tournament.

Four years later, with Germany as host, Klose won the Golden Boot when he scored another five goals in leading Germany to the semifinals. In 2010 he scored four more in South Africa.

Klose has seen off challenges from a number of younger strikers eager to replace him, including Mario Gomez.

Indeed, the veteran is the only specialized striker in Loew's squad after Gomez was dropped.

Alongside his record-breaking goal tally, Klose will long be remembered for his sportsmanship with his acts of fair play making headline news in Germany.

He told a referee in Italy in 2012 to disallow a goal he had just scored because he used his hand.

Seven years earlier, playing for Werder Bremen, he declined to accept a penalty because he did not think he had been fouled.
