Came the Halftime 21st birthday in the year 21. Two decades and a year in which we have brought you the greatest sports stories and we have lived with you, the new chapters that are written every day throughout the planet.
And precisely within the framework of our birthday, we will honor the number 21, telling you about those athletes who used this number on their number and made sport history.
THE NUMBER 21, VERY POPULAR AMONG ELITE FOOTBALL PLAYERS
EL 21 is synonymous with success in football, or at least it has accompanied great players at some point in their careers: Zinedine Zidane during his early years at Juventus; same case as Ronaldinho when he made the leap to Europe with Paris Saint-Germain. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, current scorer in Serie A, has come to use that number with Milan.
Phillip Lahm, that German winger who was World Champion in 2014, also used it in his career at Bayern; not to mention the “Architect”, Andrea Pirlo, current coach of Juventus who in his years as a footballer with Vecchia Signora used it on his number.
The “Clown” Pablo Aimar, marked an era in Valencia with that number; or Santiago Solari, current coach of America, he also wore that shirt in his years with Real Madrid, while the “Joya”, Paulo Dybala with the Argentine National Team.
FIGURES FROM OTHER SPORTS, ALSO USED THE NUMBER 21
The number 21 has also accompanied great athletes in other sports, a figure with which they have covered themselves with glory.
Deion Sanders, NFL player and Major League Baseball; the basketball player Tim Duncan with the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA, Baseball player Roberto Clemente with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Too, Dominique Wilkins con los Atlanta Hawks, Baseball player Sammy Sosa with the Chicago Cubs, or the basketball player Kevin Garnett con los Minnesota Timberwolves.
