In comparison to events like the World Cup and the UEFA European Championship, not many people pay attention to Olympic football. However, in the men's football final at the Tokyo Olympics, Brazil won 2-1 against Spain, securing the Olympic champion title once again, with Malcolm scoring the decisive goal in extra time. The Spanish national team, which had six players from the UEFA European Championship, had to settle for the runner-up position.

At the Olympics, 38-year-old Dani Alves, the oldest player in men's football, also served as the captain for the Brazilian national team. His presence became a source of inspiration for the young Brazilian players. Remarkably, Alves played the full 600 minutes across all six Olympic matches, contributing to the final with an assist. While many are debating whether Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi is the current top player in world football, Alves has already become a historical figure – the champion harvester whom both Ronaldo and Messi look up to.

As a player, Alves has consistently demonstrated personality and ambition throughout his career, never shying away from challenges. At the Olympics, he fulfilled his dream of winning a gold medal. This marked Alves' 43rd championship trophy at the age of 38, making him the player with the most significant number of important championship titles in football history, surpassing Argentina's star Messi by four championships. Notably, he had already achieved the pinnacle of his player career at Barcelona, considered the best right-back in history.

Looking back at Alves' career, it can be said that he was born for championships. From making a name for himself in the Serbian team to playing for clubs like Sevilla, Barcelona, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, and winning championships with each, Alves has consistently secured victories. In addition to the clubs, he also won seven championship trophies with the Brazilian national team. This Olympic football championship has set a record, bringing Alves' total football championship titles to 43, making this gold medal the best farewell gift before his retirement.

At the moment the Olympic final ended, Alves fell to the ground, howling with emotion, shedding tears of excitement. He deeply understands the significance of this gold medal for both himself and Brazil. On the one hand, it is the second time Brazil has won the men's football at the Olympics since the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in 2016, successfully defending the championship. On the other hand, with Brazil facing challenges from the pandemic, winning the Olympic football title is the greatest tribute for the proud people of Brazil, who take immense pride in football. Therefore, after the match, Alves expressed his desire to dedicate this gold medal to all Brazilians, stating:The Olympics are the biggest sporting event in the world, and we knew the competition would be tough. But all the efforts and sacrifices are worth it. I want to thank everyone. Brazil is going through a difficult time, but it is a country full of fighters. All the athletes representing Brazil and winning medals are warriors, and everyone knows how difficult the preparation was.
