Chapter 104 The era that belongs to them has begun.
In a report article in French Football, it focuses on the rise of the post-90s stars in today's world football. After Kaka, they also mentioned Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo, Barcelona's Messi, Arsenal's Fabregas, and of course, Zhang Yang.
"Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo from Portugal scored an amazing 23 goals in the Premier League last season, won the first Premier League championship in his career with Rooney and other Ferguson babies, and completed another leap in his career in a year. In the Portuguese national team, Ristiano Ronaldo has gradually become the core of the team. In the European Championship qualifiers, he led Portugal to the final stage next year.
"The Argentine young player Messi from La Liga Barcelona, compared with Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo, his performance in a year is more eye-catching. A year ago, Messi can only be said to be a fledgling hope star, and today, a year later, Messi has been able to compare with his brother. Ronaldinho stands at the peak of world football. What's more note is that as an Argentine player, compared with the so-called "Diego successors" in the past, Messi copied the wonderful moments of the king many times in this year's game, and the "five-man in a row" completed in the King's Cup against Getafe is even more with Maradona. The best goal of England's century in the 1986 World Cup is the same. Messi's birth allows many fans who have experienced the Diego era to salvage the good memories from the depths of their memories.
"When it comes to the best players after 80 years, we can't but mention the youngest Spanish player Fabregas, who is the most important player in the Golden Globes list. Born on May 4, 1987, Fabregas's value to the club is more far-reaching than that of Kaka and others. After the end of last season, Xiaofa, who is less than 20 years old, has played 153 times for Arsenal, and finally won the best player of the official season of Arsenal in the 2006-07 season. The Spanish young player won More than 60% of the votes supported it. After King Henry moved to Barcelona, the prince of the Emirates Stadium quickly took office, and 20-year-old Fabregas has become the new favorite of Arsenal fans. Like Messi and Iniesta, Fabregas also uses his performance in a foreign country to support the weight of "Made in Lamacia" in today's football world.
"Of course, if in terms of the number of goals and the speed at which he has risen in the last two seasons, neither Cristiano Ronaldo nor Messi nor Fabregas is as good as AC Milan's Chinese star. This Chinese young man, who is only 21 years old this year, has a fantastic performance last season. , equaling Altafini's Champions League single-season scoring record, breaking his own Ligue 1 single-season scoring record, and quickly integrated into the team after transferring to AC Milan. Now he is the number one scorer of the Italian giants. In the game against Shakhtar Donetsk, he became the least time-consuming 'four-star general' in a Champions League match.
According to the scoring statistics of the 2007 European Golden Globe Awards released by French football, Zhang Yang's ranking in the top ten list did not surprise people too much. After all, Zhang Yang won the fifth place in the selection of last year's European Golden Globe Awards, and in 2007, Zhang Yang's performance was better than last year. Adding brilliance also means that Zhang Yang has a high chance of entering the top three in this year's European Golden Globe Awards.
Because Kaka is almost sure to win the European Golden Globe Award this year, there is almost no suspense, so people are more concerned about who is the second and third place than ever.
The second day of the match with the Celtics' Champions League was when the final result of the 2007 European Golden Globe Awards was announced. However, before that, many Chinese reporters gathered in Paris. These Chinese reporters sharpened their heads to the French football headquarters to inquire about the results. If Zhang Yang can enter the top three of the Golden Globe Awards, this is definitely the most brilliant achievement in the history of Chinese players. Not to mention in China, it is also an achievement that has never been achieved among Asian players. Japan's Hidetoshi Nakata, Junsuke Nakamura, South Korea's Park Ji-sung and others are not enough to watch at all. When will they enter? Top 20 of the Golden Globe Awards?Even the Chinese media have already shouted for Zhang Yang in advance to congratulate him.
And in China, the praise of publicity has also begun. After all, this is a grand event in Chinese football. No Chinese football player has ever achieved such an achievement like Zhang Yang - he won the annual golden boots of the European League and entered the top three of the European Golden Globe Awards, although he has not yet won the European Golden Globe Award. However, such an achievement is unprecedented, and judging from the current situation of Chinese football, it is likely that there will be no success for a very long time.
After the violence on the court in the focus match between AC Milan and Juventus, some Chinese domestic media criticized Zhang Yang, but many media still support Zhang Yang, which has a lot to do with Zhang Yang's likely to reach the top three of the European Golden Globe Awards. In the view of these media, Zhang Yang is now like the rising sun. His future is boundless, and he can't get along with people who are destined to become great players. The media has to think about this kind of thing. They are more used to falling down. Obviously, Zhang Yang did not give them the opportunity to fall into the well.
Moreover, Zhang Yang is still young, only 21 years old, and has just joined a rich family. His future is boundless. Many legendary superstars in world football are very optimistic about Zhang Yang. The Chinese reporter met the German football emperor Beckenbauer in Paris. The greatest legendary superstar of German football even joked with Chinese reporters, If Zhang Yang doesn't win the European Golden Globe Award within five years, he will hire a reporter to travel around the world at his own expense. If Zhang Yang wins the Golden Globe Award, the reporter will treat him to Chinese food.
At midnight on December 5, 2007, such a message was updated on the official website of French Football.
"... We are very honored to announce that the results of the 2007 European Football Golden Globe Awards have been drawn. Congratulations to Kakata, a Brazilian player from AC Milan, for winning this year's European Football Golden Globe Award. His performance in the past year has been perfect, especially in the Champions League, which shows us his omnipotent performance... Congratulations to Kaka!"
At the same time, the list of players who finally entered the top five was also announced on the website:
Kaka, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Zhang Yang, Drogba.
The five players were also invited to the headquarters of French Football in Paris, France, to attend the award ceremony.
The selection of the European Golden Globe Awards has been voted on by European football journalists in the past, but this year some reforms have been carried out. French Football magazine invited 96 football journalists from all over the world to select 50 players who play for European clubs.
"French Football" is just a media, so the European Golden Globe Award ceremony is destined to be uncomparable to the World Footballer of the award ceremony. Therefore, there are not too many other factors. Football is almost the only factor, but in the eyes of all players, the gold content of the European Golden Globe Award is definitely more than World Footballer, because he is purer and fairer.
Zhang Yang and Kaka, accompanied by AC Milan Vice President Galliani and President Berlusconi, took Berlusconi's private plane from Milan's Malpensa Airport to Paris, France, to participate in the on-site award ceremony of the European Golden Globe Awards. Because Kaka has been confirmed to win the prize, Mr. Berlusconi, the big boss, is happy to go. This gentleman will never let go of any opportunity to show his face, and Zhang Yang is lucky enough to take the boss's luxury private plane. This time, it can also be said that he has been stained with Kaka's light.
On the plane, Berlusconi also talked to Zhang Yang and criticized Zhang Yang's actions in the game with Juventus.
Although Zhang Yang is unhappy with these criticisms, he can only listen to who makes the big boss in front of him. Although Zhang Yang has a personality, he is not stupid and will not quarrel with the big boss of the team. If he is scolded, just scold him. Anyway, he can't see this person several times a year.
However, Berlusconi is worthy of being the prime minister. He naturally saw that he was not satisfied with Zhang Yang. He was a little dissatisfied, but he was not angry. As his identity, he would not care about a young man. Finally, he praised Zhang Yang and praised his performance this season. This immediately made Zhang Yang smile happily.
Finally, in the channl headquarters building on the banks of the Seine, French Football awarded the 2007 European Golden Globe Award trophy to Kaka, and also announced the second and third places.
Before the award was announced, people predicted that the second place would be Portuguese player Cristiano Ronaldo for Manchester United, and the third place would be Barcelona's Argentine player Messi and AC Milan's Chinese player Zhang Yang.
However, after the final announcement of the second and third places, in the eyes of many people, it is still a big surprise.
"Kaka performed very well in 2007. He led AC Milan all the way to win the Champions League, and I became the second most goalscorer in the Champions League with 10 goals. Although this is four goals less than his current club teammate Zhang Yang, for a midfielder, scoring ten goals in the Champions League is quite a perfect performance. In addition, the Brazilian star Kaka also has a very excellent performance in the Brazilian national team... Kaka successfully overwhelmed with 444 points. Competitors: his teammate Zhang Yang of AC Milan and Cristiano of Manchester United. Ronaldo's score followed, with Chinese player Zhang Yang ranking second with 207 points, while Portuguese player Cristiano Ronaldo ranked third with 197 points. Barcelona's Messi ranked fourth with 179 points, Chelsea's "Warcraft" Drogba ranked fifth with 108 points, and in the top ten, Kaka and Zhang Yang's teammate Pirlo in Milan ranked sixth with 41 points. Ronaldinho tragically ranked thirteenth, falling out of the top five for the first time since 2003. - Reuters
On the podium, Kaka looked very excited. He said, "To be honest, I'm a little looking forward to this award. I won the UEFA Champions League and became the top scorer, which is the difference between me and other players. Cristiano. Ronaldo lost to us in the Champions League, otherwise he might have won the prize. Zhang Yang is my teammate. He surprised me. I have never seen a shooter so horrible. He is a nightmare for any goalkeeper.
Kaka is still the favorite of the World Footballer of the Year selected by FIFA in 2007. His main competitors are still Ronaldinho and Messi. FIFA will announce the final winners at the World's Player of the Year award ceremony in Zurich on December 17.
Many people were surprised that Zhang Yang could beat Cristiano Ronaldo and won the second place in the 2007 European Golden Globe Awards. However, after being surprised, Zhang Yang did not raise too many questions about winning the second place, because Zhang Yang also performed very well. It turned out that they predicted Zhang Yang. I may get the third place. Of course, the English media is unfair to Cristiano Ronaldo, and the Barcelona media feels unfair to Messi, which is within the normal category.
If the media in England and Spain, especially Barcelona, feel sorry for Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi there, then Chinese media reporters are ecstatic. Previously, they thought that if Zhang Yang could enter the top three, it would be a great achievement. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yang would finally He got the second place and got more points than Cristiano Ronaldo.
After the score at the scene was scored, when Zhang Yang came to the stage to receive the crystal trophy symbolizing the second place in the 2007 European Golden Globe Award, the group of Chinese reporters who were invited to the scene was boiling. They applauded crazily and their hands were about to clap their hands.
