Kobe Bryant: Football is my favourite sport
One of the greats of the basketball world, when away from the court and out
of his LA Lakers jersey Kobe Bryant is a familiar face in the stands of
football stadia around the globe watching, what he told FIFA.com, is his
favourite sport.
The five-time NBA Champions and former Most Valuable Player is one of those
cheering on some globes finest at the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™, having
already attended the FIFA Confederation Cup Brazil 2013 last year.
We caught up with him ahead of Germany's impressive win over Portugal to talk
about his love of football, whether he is collecting information for his
beloved USA side and who he thinks could triumph in the Maracana on 13 July.
FIFA.com: Kobe, you visited the Confederations Cup last year and now you are
at the World Cup in Brazil. You must be a huge football fan...
Kobe Bryant: I am actually. I grew up in Italy. From the age from six to 14 I
played soccer every day. It is actually my favourite sport.
Why did you choose to watch the game between Germany and Portugal? Are you a
spy for the USA team?
For sure (laughs)! It has a lot to do with my travel and I wanted to see some
great matches. I want to see the best teams and to see one of the best
players. It is a great opportunity to be able to see that here.
How strong would you rate the USA?
The US team has unfortunately a very tough draw. But football in the US has
really been picking up. I think our team is confident and they will respond
the challenge.
Are you going to watch any USA matches as well?
Yes! We are trying to get in front of a huge screen and watch the games, and
we are trying to coordinate our schedule so that we can go and watch them in
person.
Who is your favourite for the Trophy?
Wow… It is hard to go against the home team in Brazil. It would be nice to
see a Brazil versus Argentina final. Germany looks very, very strong too and
it is hard to go against them as well.
What’s your opinion on the new NBA champions San Antonio Spurs?
Well deserved. It really is a lesson on how you get guys to play together if
they share one goal. I am very happy for the Spurs. It is a motivation for
us. Hopefully we can do the same next season.

原來小KOBE以前是踢足球的

他小時候看義甲長大的

好奇怪 一下用football一下用soccer Kobe在想啥

老大說話了

3000萬在歐洲足球可以買到甚麼貨色的球員

說不定有興趣在MLS跟企業合股創一隊 丹佛Raper

屁啦 足球是要傳球的

英文沒有RAPER用法啦

3000萬美金可以買到1.07個C羅

3000萬歐元都買不起一個C羅了 3000萬美金可以?

3000萬鎂是年薪吧?

老大的口袋應該夠買一支足球隊吧

小時候天天玩足球 然後最愛美足 是這樣嗎XD?

老大可以組一隻Toronto Papors

laoda!!

他最愛足球但卻不踢足球~應該是因為足球必須一直傳球

老大應該要支持葡萄牙吧 即視感

美國踢足球發展真的不好呀...喜歡也沒用

我印象中他不是說過NBA退休之後要去踢球

KOBE是巴薩迷

退休踢足球的不是NASH嗎

Kobe又單刀啦

小時候踢足球 上班打籃球 下班打__球

C羅稅前年薪就3500萬歐元了..
