    Raúl alcanza ante Islandia el centenar de internacionalidades absolutas

    Raúl va de récord. El capitán del Real Madrid y de la Selección española alcanzó ante Islandia la friolera de 100 internacionalidades absolutas, un registro que ningún otro jugador de campo ha alcanzado… y que es complicado que nadie iguale. Sólo el portero Andoni Zubizarreta, con 126 entorchados, supera a Raúl en número de partidos con la Absoluta, pero el ‘7’ blanco tiene sólo 29 años. Y muchas ganas de seguir rompiendo récords.

    “Este chico es pata negra”. La frase es del padre de Raúl, don Pedro. La pronunció en el hall del hotel Corona de Aragón, en Zaragoza, a finales de octubre de 1994. Su hijo Raúl estaba a punto de debutar con el Real Madrid. Aunque ese ya histórico 29 de octubre del 94, de la mano de Jorge Valdano, Raúl marraba alguna que otra clara ocasión de gol en su estreno oficial con el primer equipo del Madrid, aquellas palabras resultaron, más que nunca, toda una premonición.
    Ayer, Raúl cumplió 100 partidos con la Selección. Más que ningún otro jugador de campo. Sólo le supera el ex guardameta de Athletic, Barcelona y la Selección, Andoni Zubizarreta. Ya es, de largo, el máximo goleador en la historia de España. El récord anterior, de 29 dianas, se le quedó pequeño el 12 de febrero de 2003 (ante Alemania, en Son Moix; dos goles del '7'). El madrileño suma ya 44 dianas con la Selección Absoluta, superando a Hierro (29 goles en 89 partidos), Morientes (26 en 43), Butragueño (idéntica cifra, pero en 69), Di Stéfano (23 en 31 partidos), Salinas (23 en 56) y Míchel (21 en 66), por nombrar sólo a los seis primeros de tan selecta lista.



    La media de Raúl, 0,44 goles por partido, habla de un goleador de raza. Muy lejos quedan los 1,42 goles por partido de Lángara (17 dianas en sólo 12 encuentros), pero ésos eran otros tiempos, los de los cinco delanteros y el juego sin cortapisas. En estos días en los que el gol se cotiza muy caro en el mercado del fútbol, acreditar casi un tanto cada dos partidos es un logro al alcance sólo de los elegidos. Y Raúl es uno de ellos.

    Tres Mundiales y dos Eurocopas
    El currículum de Raúl con la Selección impresiona. Con tan sólo 29 años, ha participado ya en tres Mundiales (Francia’98, Corea y Japón’02 y Alemania’06) y dos Eurocopas (Bélgica y Holanda’00 y Portugal’04). Es decir, ha estado en todos los eventos importantes en los que ha tomado parte la Selección desde 1998. Estuvo a punto de participar en la Euro de 1996, pero su debut con la Absoluta no se produjo hasta el 9 de octubre de ese año, cuando Prensa y afición venían reclamando su presencia con ‘La Roja’ desde hacía meses. El caso es que Raúl llamó con insistencia a las puertas de España, hasta que, por fin, Javier Clemente se las abrió de par en par. Entró y todavía no ha salido.

    Raúl puede presumir de haber marcado goles en tres Mundiales. En Francia’98, anotó un gol ante Nigeria (2-3 para los africanos); en 2002, hizo un gol ante Eslovenia (3-1 para España) y dos ante Sudáfrica (3-2); y, este año 2006, hizo el tanto que abría el camino para la remontada de España ante Túnez (3-1). En las Eurocopas su producción anotadora ha sido menor: sólo un gol, ante Eslovenia, en 2000.

    Con sólo 29 años
    Raúl ha acumulado toda esta montaña de datos con tan sólo 29 años, lo que da idea tanto de su precocidad (debutó con España con tan sólo 19 años, el 9 de octubre de 1996 ante la República Checa en Praga) como de su voracidad. Hierro sumó 89 partidos con España, Camacho 81, Gordillo 75, Butragueño 69, Arconada 68 y Míchel 66, por citar sólo a algunos. Lo ilustre de estos nombres sirve para enmarcar, mejor que las palabras, la magnitud de la hazaña de Raúl. Y, repetimos, con tan sólo 29 años (nació el 29 de junio de 1977). Seguro que, en su mente, se perfilan como retos de futuro los 126 partidos de ‘Zubi’ y el desafío de poder jugar un cuarto Mundial, en Sudáfrica en 2010.

    Y, además, con el Madrid
    Por si todo estos fuera poco, Raúl ha conjugado su carrera en la Selección con otra, aún más espectacular si cabe, en el Real Madrid. Desde que Valdano le hiciera debutar en La Romareda, nuestro protagonista acumula un magnífico palmarés en sus doce temporadas en el Primer Equipo. Porque, vestido de blanco, Raúl lo ha ganado todo: cuatro Ligas, tres Copas de Europa, dos Intercontinentales, cuatro Supercopas de España y una Supercopa de Europa. Además, a nivel individual, Raúl ha sido Pichichi en la competición española en dos ocasiones, máximo goleador en otras dos ediciones de la Liga de Campeones y ha logrado un Balón de Plata, dos Botas de Bronce y un FIFA World Player de Bronce en 2001. Además de seguir triunfando con el Madrid, eu gran sueño es lograr un título importante con la Selección; con 29 años, está a tiempo… cheers

    They really faked an injury, or is that club bias? Smile

    Can understand them though, who really wants to fly to Reykjavik in this phase of the season? But still, it always should be an honor to play for the national team, no matter how unimportant the match is.

    I agree, its not the right attitude at all. Then people wonder why the spanish team doesnt do well. The players are more committed to the clubs than to the national team thats one reason.

    Lets hope you are right and Raul has a great season <Ale>

    I'm glad Xavi & Puyol faked an injury to not play. It was pointless match in which the icelandics were kicking the spanish players all the time. Xavi and Puyol have more important things to do like winning the Supercopas than playing a stupid friendly.

    Even if I cared I would say the same. Just because Madrid don't have any trophies to play for these days it doesn't mean other teams don't have.

    If it was a qualifier then I would agree with you but a bloody friendly after the WC is as pointless as the signing of Diogo.

    Don't forget we also have the European Supercup and apart from that there is a risk of picking up an injury or a knock.

    But the Barça players don't go around kicking their team mates like the rivals do in a match!! I didn't watch the game because I didn't know it was on but on the news they said and showed the icelandics kicking the players around.

    I think you're the only one making a big deal about it, not even AS,MARCA and Antena 3 (the main madridista propaganda) have made such a big deal about it.

    I think faking an injury in order to get out of a match with your national side is a big thing. If an english player did this the media would kill him. Barça is protected as always.
    If you lose the Spuer Cup you will say its a minor title and it doesnt really matter, pathetic. Besides isnt Barça suppose to have one of the best squads in europe ? If so then why make 2 players fake an injury ? Cant they be replaced ? Its only Espanyol ffs.

    And what if they got injured for 6 months?

    I don't think it's a big deal but if you and the spanish FA feel so bad about it then ban Xavi and Puyol from the national team...
