Kaka Done By : Shamma Al-Hitmi 6D Who is the player? I chose a player that has great skills and im willing to tell about the player. His full name is Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite who is know as Kaka. Kaka is his family name. What club, team or country does he/she play for? He made a legally contract with the team Sao Paulo in the age of 15. In 2003 he joined AC Milan and got the best player in the world in 2007. After he joined Real Madrid for 89 million which broke the record of zidane which is 79 million. In 2010 he went back to AC Milan. He also plays in the Brazilian national team. What is the player’s background, how long have they been playing, what positions does he/she play? He started playing football in the age of 8. He has a young brother who is called Rodrigo Izecson Dos Santos Leite who is know ad Digo. (that’s his nickname.) Kaka’s position is midfielder. He is usually the playmaker. Playmakers usually pass the ball to the attacker who scores the goal, but a playmaker can also score a goal. What does this player do on the field that makes them so good? (Use Football terminology if possible) eg: Can strike with both feet, puts other players into space etc. Kaka scored many goals with right and left field but he kicks better with the right. He always puts other players into space, that’s how he scores his and that’s how gets the ball to other players. Why do you enjoy watching this particular player more than others? Give specific examples of great passages of play they have been involved in. (you can use photos or video to help your explanation) Kaka is really good in his position, he is really fast and can move with the ball like no other player can. He sometimes kicks free kicks that are close to the goal and it really hard for the golly to block it. That’s what I like most about the player and why I chose him not another player. There is time when Kaka is stuck by defender and I like the way he deals with it, sometimes he gets the ball under the defenders leg. what are three questions you would ask the player if you had a chance to interview him for TV and why? 1) How did you learn football? I would like to know how he got his skills that made him an amazing player. 2) Who was his role model? I want to know how did he get interested in football, who encouraged him. 3) What was his best match he played in and why? I’m interested in his best match he played because I’m sure that something happened in that match. !!Pictures!! Video Here is a link to watch the goal Kaka scored.
