Cuauhtémoc Blanco Bravo (born January 17, 1973 in Mexico, D.F.), also known as Cuau or Temo, is a retired Mexican international football midfielder, who currently plays for Chicago Fire in the United States Major League Soccer division. After his contract with the Chicago Fire is up, Blanco has said he would like to return to Club América. Blanco is the only Mexican football player with an award in an international FIFA competition, as he won the Silver Ball and the Golden Shoe awards in the 1999 FIFA Confederations Cup. He has been awarded the MVP of the Mexican First League Division five times. Although Blanco plays mostly as an attacking midfielder; he is tied with Brazilian football player Ronaldinho as the leading Confederations Cup goalscorer. Blanco is also Mexico's second top scorer in both the FIFA World Cup and the Copa Libertadores tournaments; and the fourth top scorer of the Mexican national football team of all time, one goal behind Carlos Hermosillo and Luis Hernández. He is also the second top scorer of the Mexican team, Club América. He is also known for his theatrical goal celebrations and unique football technique known as the "Blanco Bounce", which is the official name given by FIFA administrators. In Mexico it is known as the "Cuauhtemiña". He is consider by FIFA and the FMF as one of the best Mexican soccer players in history.
