虔誠基督徒為傳道踢足球 (From MingPao Jan 27, 2006)

天才朴主永瞄準賀歲盃智商150 狀態100%

【明報專訊】嘉士伯盃(賀歲盃)參賽球隊之一南韓隊昨日抵。陣中雖沒有外流歐洲的球星,但李天秀、李東國等主將及年僅20歲的亞洲最佳青年球員朴主永皆有隨隊。智商高達150的新晉射手朴主永近期狀態正佳,勢在賀歲盃大放異彩。

... ...

朴主永是在2004年的亞洲青年錦標賽一戰(亞青盃)成名,攻入6球成為神射手及最佳球員﹔早前對希臘的友賽,他亦取得入球,助南韓賽和1﹕1,顯示近6個星期的冬訓,正好提升了這位「K-League新人王」的狀態。朴主永是一名「天才球員」,在中學時代被驗證智商高達150,雖然雙親曾一度認為兒子應專注學業,但他在小學4年級代表班隊出賽連中三元後,備受校隊教練注視,並不斷游說朴的雙親,朴主永才得以在足球場上一顯身手。朴主永投身職業足球後,先後帶領南韓贏得亞青盃冠軍及當選去季南韓聯賽足球先生亞軍,今夏的世界盃朴主永亦可望擔起重要角色。

虔誠基督徒為傳道踢足球

【明報專訊】像奇蹟般急速冒起的朴主永對自己的能力充滿信心,相信自己有能力立足英超,而這份自信是源自他的基督教信仰。年方20、出道1年的他已為退役後打算,決志要當一個兼職傳道人。

基督教近年在南韓迅速擴展,朴主永亦加入了基督徒行列﹔去年他在南韓職業足球聯賽出道,每一次建功後都以跪在地上祈禱感恩的方式慶祝入球。他說﹕「我當足球員是為了感謝神賜我如此出色的才能,我沒想過要改變我的慶祝入球方法。」

朴主永更稱﹕「我是為了傳道才踢足球,如果有一個人因我的緣故而對基督教產生興趣,我會無比高興。當我退役後,我會一邊教人踢球,一邊展開我的宣教工作。作為耶穌的信徒,我希望一生能傳揚頌讚上主。」現在他每一次為球迷簽名,都會同時在簽名旁寫上「耶穌是基督」。也許正因在心中崇拜敬仰的只有上帝,朴主永縱使很喜歡法國球星施丹與亨利,卻從不會視他們為偶像。
