Chapter 983: Public opinion is reversed, and Ronnie is angry
"Messi thinks that the Ballon d'Or should be given to Iniesta", the headline on the front page of "World Sports" immediately reported, "Messi believes that in the World Cup year, the World Cup champion members should be allowed to win the Ballon d'Or, Xavi and Iniesta are both eligible to win the Ballon d'Or." β
"If you analyze it carefully, Messi has a point, the Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year have been merged, and the selection criteria really have to be carefully considered," the example of "World Sports" is more detailed than Messi's, "Rossi in 1982, Maradona in 1986, Mateus in 1990, Romario in 1994, Zidane in 1998, Ronaldo in 2002, Cannavaro in 2006. β
"Don't let tradition get lost. If the World Cup doesn't produce the best players of the year, where will the glory of those players go in the past? β
Daily Sports is the most direct: "The Ballon d'Or should go to Iniesta".
"Anyone other than Iniesta is not convinced by the Ballon d'Or."
Even Spain's more impartial media "El PaΓs" published an article to start a discussion, mainly related to whether Spain can press the Golden Globe Award, which is indeed an opportunity.
The last Ballon d'Or winner in Spain?
Luis Suarez!
That was 40 years ago, and could Spain not want a player to win the Ballon d'Or again?
Luis Suarez is an ancient god and a Barcelona.
Luis led Barcelona to a strong performance in the Champions League, and in the same year Suarez was elected European Footballer of the Year, beating the likes of Puskas, Stefano and Yassin.
He is the only player in Spain to have won the Ballon d'Or.
"It's time for the Spanish players to win the Ballon d'Or, and international football should not ignore the players who won the World Cup"
Another Spanish media outlet, Radio Cell, launched an investigation:
Who do you think deserves the 2010 Ballon d'Or?
1. Sneijder.
2, Dong Fangzhuo.
3. Iniesta.
4. Harvey
There are a total of four options, all of which are top three players in the World Cup.
As a result, nearly 200,000 people participated in the online voting, nearly 100,000 people chose Iniesta, 330,000 people chose Xavi, Dong Fangzhuo received 60,000 support, and the remaining 10,000 went to Sneijder.
Obviously, even if Real Madrid has a large number of fans in Spain, it is still inferior to the national level, and many Real Madrid fans may be secretly choosing Iniesta, with nearly 100,000 votes enough to speak for themselves.
Rarely, the reports of the newspaper "Marca" and "As" also appear to be very rational.
"It is unreasonable to combine the World Footballer of the Year and the Ballon d'Or, we might have easily chosen the Ballon d'Or winner and the World Footballer of the Year, but now they are mixed together and the criteria are blurred," Marca said. But if you have to choose a Golden Globe gentleman, Iniesta does have a reason to be elected, but on the other hand, it seems to be unfair to the Chinese Dong.
The newspaper also said ambiguously: "This will be the most controversial Ballon d'Or in history, and the captains and journalists from all over the world will be in a long time thinking, and we will only have to wait until December to know the results." β
Needless to say, it is certainly the most controversial in Spain.
In the Netherlands, however, the wind is not the same.
The Dutch newspaper Dutch Telegraph asked, "What does Iniesta have?" If the selection criteria were adjusted, wouldn't Sneijder deserve the Ballon d'Or even more? Six-time champion plus World Cup runner-up, World Cup Silver Ball Award, no matter how you look at Iniesta, it can't be Iniesta's turn? β
"In the spirit of fairness, Chinese Dong still deserves the Golden Globe the most, then Sneijder, then Iniesta. Football is really sad if some players start to bewitch the public because they can't win the Ballon d'Or, and the award loses its authority. β
It can be seen that the Dutch media supports Dong Fangzhuo, rather than choosing to side with Spain.
In fact, no matter which side the Netherlands supports, Sneijder has no hope, either Dong Fangzhuo or Iniesta, in this case, it is better to support Sneijder's friend Dong Fangzhuo......
The Asian side also quarreled.
South Korea's "Chosun Ilbo" directly expressed its support for Iniesta: "The Champions League is held every year, but the World Cup is only once every four years, and of course the Golden Ball Award must be awarded to Iniesta!" β
"The South Korean people strongly believe that the Ballon d'Or should go to Iniesta because he is the hero of Spain's victory."
Even the Indian media came to participate, "Hindustan News": "Of course, the Golden Ball Award should be given to Iniesta, when he played Germany in the final, Iniesta staged a stunner, but his teammate Kobe Bryant who gave him an assist is also good!" β
Kobe Bryant is out!
Naturally, China's side has also exploded.
Tencent.com scolded the sky.
A "Iniesta will win the 2010 Golden Globe Award, Dong Fangzhuo second!" γ
soon reached the top of the hot search list, and then the comments were all scolding Spain, Messi, and South Korea.
"SB Messi, just because of his remarks, the whole world is discussing the Golden Globe Award, typical can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, don't want to get it tomorrow if you can't get it!"
"Does Iniesta deserve the Ballon d'Or? Just because he beat the Netherlands in the World Cup? One goal can offset Dong Fangzhuo's season of 56 goals? Offsetting his World Cup top scorer, all-time top scorer and most goals in a single World Cup? They've all tucked their brains! β
"If the Ballon d'Or goes to Andres Iniesta, it will definitely be the blackest Ballon d'Or ever! Not one of them! β
"If Iniesta can win the award, then Sneijder is more deserving of the award, and Xavi can too."
"Villa and Torres are both eligible!"
It's noisy, it's noisy......
At this time, FIFA President Blatter who stretched out the bribery scandal also spoke out in front of the media, it seems that he wants to guide the wind of public opinion, and the controversy of the Golden Ball Award can just suppress his news.
"In my opinion, it's a good thing to have controversy, because it's a good thing that fans all over the world are interested in football and are interested in the Ballon d'Or. Maybe we did not think about it enough when merging the Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year. But Mr. Golden Globe has not yet been produced, the selection is still ongoing, the selection is fair, and every reporter and every national captain can choose the Golden Globe Award in his mind according to his own objective opinion. In my opinion, these guys are all eligible for the Ballon d'Or. Of course, I do prefer to support the World Cup winners to win the Ballon d'Or, and for good reason. β
Blatter represents FIFA, doesn't his words represent the direction of the national football federation?
The organizers of "France Football" also had to stand up and express their views: "We do not make any partiality appeals, the standards are here, the players are here, the rights are in the hands of each qualified judge, we will be fair, open and impartial......"
Having said that, public opinion is really biased......
Immediately after that, a lot of football legends jumped out.
Barcelona legend Mendieetta said: "Since it is a World Cup year, it is natural to choose the Ballon d'Or for the World Cup champions, can there be any doubts about this?" The Golden Ball Awards can only be Xavi and Iniesta's, nothing else has anything to do, although the personal data of Chinese Dong is very beautiful, but he does not have the World Cup! Winning the World Cup every four years is the highest achievement! β
Another foreign celebrity Koeman also firmly sided with Spain: "If the World Cup winner does not have the Ballon d'Or, then please cancel Cannavaro's Ballon d'Or, he should not win the Ballon d'Or." β
It was still Koeman who was ruthless enough to pull Cannavaro out directly.
Cannavaro scolded at home in Italy, and the reporter of "Milan Sports Newspaper" found them and asked him directly about his opinion, and Cannavaro was very embarrassed.
You were shot while lying paralyzed, I was so proud that the 2006 Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year were recognized by the world, at that time it was two awards, and now you have two awards in one, can this be the same?
However, he is obviously a guy with high emotional intelligence, and he immediately said: "Koeman's words are very naΓ―ve, he said that he didn't think about it before, in 2006, the Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year were awarded to me, and I was recognized by everyone the judges. Now that the World Footballer of the Year and the Ballon d'Or have been merged, can the selection criteria be the same? What's more, I won both awards, isn't it enough to prove it? β
Coman's words not only annoyed Cannavaro.
Maldini also stood up to speak for his friend, "Coman speaks without thinking, which lacks respect for Cannavaro and Italian football, Cannavaro won the Ballon d'Or for real!" I don't know what the people of Barcelona think, whether they can win the award or not, doesn't it depend on the judges? Is it okay for them to put pressure on the judges now? It's a shame. β
Even Ronaldo, who is in Brazil, can't stand it, he rarely participates in such arguments, but this time he is also on Cannavaro's side.
"It's very immoral, the Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year are sacred and cannot be a tool for everyone to argue, it's time for these ugly arguments to stop. What is there to dispute about this year's Golden Globe Awards? How many people in the world can score 14 goals in a single World Cup? How many have been able to score 21 goals in the World Cup total? How many people have been able to get the top scorer in two consecutive World Cups? There are a few more people who have been able to win six crowns in a row and be the top scorer in the Champions League for two consecutive years! There is only one person, and that person's name is Dong fangzhuo, so if Dong can't win this year's Golden Globe Award, then the Golden Globe Award can be thrown directly! β
Call!
Unexpectedly, Ronaldo actually supported Dong Fangzhuo angrily in the end......
"Hypocrisy, shamelessness, brazenness!"
"If you want to win the Golden Globe Award, then press down the record created by China Dong!"
