Chapter 556: Golden Globe Award and Golden Boy Award

After the time enters December, the various selection activities of world football, especially European football, have also reached the time when the mystery is revealed.

Although there is actually no suspense at all, long before the awards ceremony, the results of various awards have been spoiled by the media.

But everyone waited for those days to come, as if they were an indispensable part of an important ceremony.

This year's glory can no longer be regarded as a newcomer, and with his outstanding performances in Werder Bremen for two seasons, especially his impressive performance in the Champions League last season, more and more people in the world have become aware of him and have begun to pay attention to him.

He was also shortlisted for this year's various awards.

For example, in the selection of the World Footballer of the Year held by FIFA, Rong Guang entered the shortlist of 30 people.

This is also the second Chinese men's football player to enter the shortlist after Gong Lei.

When the news was released in October, the Chinese media were very excited and happy.

They also went to interview Gong Lei, the first person in the Chinese football industry to be selected as the candidate for the World Footballer of the Year, Gong Lei, who is already a coach and TV commentator, also praised Rongguang, thinking that Rongguang's selection is more valuable than his original selection.

After all, Gong Lei was nominated by the head coach of the Tahiti national team because of his performance in the French Tahiti League.

In terms of the entire world of football, whether it is the league or the national team, French Tahiti is a marginal area. What is the value of this nomination?

Even the Chinese fans themselves don't know that there is such a thing.

Of course, it was 1993, and counseling was not as developed as it is now.

At the same time, Gong Lei is very optimistic about Rongguang's performance in European football, and wishes Rongguang to perform better in Europe and achieve better results as a senior.

However, he did not mention the matter of Rongguang and the Chinese team. That's a sensitive topic, and Gong Lei also knows very well what the internal environment of Chinese football is like, and it may not be a good choice to come back to play in the national team......

In addition to FIFA's World Footballer of the Year award, there is also the European Ballon d'Or, which was awarded by France Football magazine.

This is considered to be a far more professional and authoritative award than the FIFA World Footballer of the Year award.

There are even many players who are proud to win the European Ballon d'Or and don't care much about the World Footballer of the Year......

Of course, despite FIFA's strong promotion, the World Footballer of the Year has been recognized by more people in recent years.

But when it comes to gold content, everyone will still think of the European Golden Globe Award first.

In the list of 50 candidates for the European Ballon d'Or, Rong Guang also became the only Chinese player, and he is also the only Chinese player in the history of the European Ballon d'Or.

In addition, in the selection of "The Best Player in the World" by the British "World Football Magazine", Rong Guang also entered the shortlist. As a player who plays in Germany, being able to be voted for in the shortlist by a readership mainly aimed at English-speaking regions has to say that Glory's influence has become more and more world-relevant.

In addition to these, in the European Golden Boy Award, Rong Guang also entered the shortlist here.

Although he has already won the European Golden Boy award once, that doesn't stop him from being shortlisted. Because the European Golden Boy Award does not stipulate that a player who has won the award cannot be selected again. The only criterion for their selection is young players under the age of 21 who play for European clubs.

Rongguang is only 20 years old this year, and if he meets the selection criteria, he can naturally continue to be selected.

Last year's rival against Glory was Wayne Rooney, and this time it was replaced by Messi who played for Barcelona.

But actually...... It's a pretty no-brainer......

Over the past year, Glory has been outstanding against Barcelona, and he was a shining star in both games, and he is the one who can be equal to Ronaldinho.

And who is Messi? At the time, no one cared.

Later, at the World Youth Championships, Messi became famous for his outstanding performance at the end of La Liga, but in a direct dialogue with Rongguang, he was blown up by Rongguang with a hat trick, and he Messi only scored a penalty, and the gap between the two is too big.

So since there is a rule that those who have not won the Golden Boy Award once in the European Golden Boy Award cannot win it again, then why can't Rong Guang defend the title?

The results of the Golden Boy Award were announced on December 10.

Rongguang really defeated Messi and won the European Golden Boy Award.

The defending European Golden Boy award surprised and not surprised the media.

Not surprised is to say that Rongguang's performance this year is in everyone's eyes, among the players under 21, no one can do better than him, in the first half of the year did not lead Werder Bremen to defend the league title, the first time to participate in the Champions League won the Champions League Golden Boot. In the summer, the underdogs led the underdogs Chinese youth team in the Netherlands to defeat many strong opponents along the way and win the World Youth Championship.

After moving to Bayern Munich in the second half of the season, he quickly became the main core of the Bayern Munich giant.

Such a performance is fully worthy of the Golden Boy Award.

If his first award would have made the English press unconvinced. This time he won the award again, and neither the Catalan nor the Argentine media had anything to say.

The surprise is because Rong Rong created a "first" in the short history of the European Golden Boy Award - the first player to defend the European Golden Boy Award.

Some media joked that fortunately, Rongguang will be twenty-one years old next year, otherwise wouldn't he have to give him a European Golden Boy Award for three consecutive championships?

Doesn't that make it seem like we have no one in Europe?

※※※

The European Golden Boy was awarded before the game, so before Bayern Munich's home game against Mainz, Rong Guang received the Golden Boy trophy from the editor-in-chief of Torino Sport.

50,000 Bayern Munich fans witnessed the event.

Then in the game, Rongguang assisted Lucas to score and helped Bayern Munich beat Mainz 2-1 and get the victory.

It would have been a wonderful thing.

But soon, the good mood of Rong Guang winning the Golden Boy Award was gone.

Because "Milan Sport" revealed in advance that AC Milan's Kaka has great hopes of winning the European Ballon d'Or!

Of course, Rong Guang knows that the European Golden Globe Award is more powerful than the European Golden Boy Award, and when Lu Dao first founded the European Golden Boy Award by the Turin Sports Newspaper, it was considered to be the European Golden Ball Award under the age of 21......

It's clear who is good and who is bad.

In this way, his European Golden Boy Award is almost like Kaka's penis of the European Golden Globe......

It's so unpleasant!

※※※

Debora was surprised when she found out that Rong Guang was actually watching the European Golden Globes in front of the TV.

Because it was crazy in the media before, Kaka will win the European Ballon d'Or, which is no suspense.

So Debora didn't understand why Glory was paying attention to such a non-suspenseful thing.

If you don't know that Kaka has almost won the European Golden Globe Award, it is understandable that Rong Guang wants to see his jokes.

But now that Rongguang must have known that Dao Kaka has won the European Golden Globe Award, what is the meaning of watching this live broadcast?

Based on Debola's understanding of Glory, she felt that it was impossible for Glory to come to accept Kaka's "humiliation".

So why do you have to watch Kaka in front of the TV?

At this time, the excited voice of the host happened to be heard on the TV: "The winner of the 2005 European Golden Globe Award is ...... Kaka! ”

The audience applauded thunderously.

Kaka got up from his seat, wearing a black Armani suit, he was tall, with a handsome face, red lips and white teeth, and a smile like a flower.

He waved to those who applauded him, and with a shy smile on his face, he walked to the rostrum.

Debora glanced at the TV screen, then noticed that Glory was sitting on the couch with her fists clenched into fists and resting them on her laps.

He cares a lot......

But what else do you need to see?

※※※

Kaka walked up to the podium and then shook hands with UEFA President Johansson, who presented the award, and received a golden football trophy from him.

Johansson congratulated him on the trophy as he handed it to him.

Kaka also smiled and said thank you.

Then he turned away with the trophy in his hand, facing the audience.

The light from the seats on the second floor above was a little dazzling, and he squinted slightly.

The pinnacle of a player's personal accolades.

I'm here.

But I don't know what it is, when Kaka holds this somewhat cool trophy in his hand, the first thing he thinks of is the guy in Munich.

I wonder if he was watching TV at this time?

If so, how would you feel?

Ah, it's a pity not to see the expression on his face at this time......

Envy or not?

Jealousy or not?

Hmph, I'm finally one step ahead of you!

Want to outdo me?

You've got to work harder!

"Thank God, when I started playing in São Paulo, all I dreamed of was to be able to wear the shirt of the Brazilian national team and play a game of the Brazilian national team...... I just asked God for a tree, but God gave me a forest......"

He held the Golden Globe in his hand and smiled happily.

※※※

"Smack." Rongguang finally couldn't hold back, he got up and turned off the TV.

Then he got up and walked out.

Debora wondered, "Where are you going?" ”

"Training!" Rongguang said, and then opened the door and walked out.

It took a long time for Debora to react - he didn't take the ball, what did he go out to train?

※※※

Glory ran through the dark alley, he didn't have the ball at his feet, but he still imitated the ball at his feet, sometimes fast and sometimes slow.

Keep running.

Soon the breathing was heavy.

In fact, it is better to say that it is training, but it is better to soothe the mood.

When he is in a bad mood, he will run, and running can make him forget the bad things.

But this time, it doesn't seem to work very well.

When he was running, his mind was full of Kaka's bright smile holding the Ballon d'Or trophy, and under the golden light of the trophy, he was already white-faced, but he turned out to be even whiter-faced.

It's really unpleasant......

Accurate!

Accurate!

The more I think about it, the more unhappy I become!!

Damn it!

I thought I had caught up, but I didn't pay attention and was thrown away again!

said that he wanted to surpass him, but he was afraid that he would be used as a joke by Kaka, right?

No way...... I'm going to catch up!

Thinking of this, Glory sped up, stopped slowing down, and rushed forward like a madman......
