Why not?

Well obviously this is a biased opinion, but if i have to say some one, that would Marcelo Salas. why? probably are you asking that,but this guy was the best artist in his discipline. it is very difficult being an artist in some non artistic discipline, i mean everybody can make a amazing painting or a song, but this guy, was an artist in another field, not in a place where you need to be one, but he did it.

Lets take a look at history, there are is a lot of guys that did things for Chile, like Andres bello, bernardo O´higgins or Alberto Hurtado. But all of them, did what they had to do, I´m not saying that this was irrelevant, they are important for today, but one thing they didn´t feel and they never could feel, if the passion of being a bullanguero! that is something you only can feel living in this life. And it is one, and Macerlo Salas even had a song, and not a bad song, an amazing song... Matador of Los fabulosos Cadilac a group of music in Argentina. How can you describe that? everyone knows him like El matador.

He is the guy that scored more goals in the history of Chile and scored two goals in England, when Chile played against England and everybody was expecting that England would win, but non of the English was expecting some guy from the south of Chile after a amazing pass of the mythical Coto Cierra, the Matador, Marcelo Salas stopt the ball in the air, almost killed her in a second, it was like the ball already knew what was going on, and in a perfect timing he shot with the other leg. The stadium stayed quiet, only a few insignificant chileans and the reporters that came to cover the news were cheering the goal. The world knew about the best chilean of the history.
