Chapter 922 Mr. Elected
Chen Yu had just sat down, and the hosts of the awards party Murray and Cablet came out.
The two hosts were a handsome white man and a beautiful black woman. They were both big names in the industry and said to the guests on the scene with a graceful voice, "Good evening, gentlemen, ladies," and then asked FIFA President Blatter to give a speech to the party.
The World Football Award is now gradually rising to surpass the European Golden Ball Awards. Blatt is very satisfied with this. He expressed his gratitude to the guests on the scene with a full face. Then he talked about the history of the World Football Award and its influence in the world football world in a clichéd manner. Finally, he imagined the future and wished a complete success of today's party.
The highlights like Mr. World Football and Miss Football must be put behind. The first awards were the best players of the two youth competitions this year. Argentine star Aguero and German hope star Cross won the titles of Best Player in the U21 World Youth Championship and U17 World Youth Championship respectively; English legend Sir Charlton and King of Football Pele presented them with the awards. The two young people were excited and red in their faces when Kings of Football Pele and Sir Charlton handed the trophy to them. Aguero almost threw the trophy to the ground.
The idol is alive in front of him, and no one will not be excited.
The award was awarded for Beach Football Player of the Year, and the winner was Brazilian player Bru, former Iranian star Ali Dei presented Bru with a trophy.
The Fair Play Award was won by the La Liga giants Barcelona. The Catalan Legion not only provided chest advertisements to UNICEF for free, but also funded the help of children with AIDS and orphans. Compared with their skills, their beautiful qualities are more loved and respected by fans.
The last idiot award is the FIFA President Award. The honors were the king of football Pele, FIFA President Blatt and British legend Bobby Charlton jointly awarded the trophy to Bailey.
The influence of the old king of football is still extraordinary. Although this is just a useless trophy, all the guests still stood up to applaud and expressed their highest respect to him.
The highlight of this award ceremony is to present awards to Miss World Football and Mr. World Football.
After Bailey walked off the podium, the party host Cablet said with a smile: "Next, please invite the three candidates of Miss World Football to the stage. Today we will reveal the answer to who is the best female football player this year. Is she a Brazilian Mata or a Germany Prinz. Of course, we cannot ignore Christiane, she is a fellow Marta, but today they are competitors."
When three female female heroes from the world football world took the podium, Marta, Prinz and Christiana's wonderful performances in the year began to be played on the big screen.
These three candidates are also members of this year's Women's World Cup champion and runner-up. Prinz is the main scorer of the German team in the Women's World Cup champion. Mata and Christiana are the trump cards of the Brazilian team in the Women's World Cup runner-up. Although Prinz has the hard results of the championship, Mata's playing style and delicate skills are more popular with fans. The competition between the two is actually very similar to Chen Yu and Messi, Chen Yu's championship Grand Slam, and Messi's style of play is very shocking. As for another Brazilian player, Christiana, is here to play soy sauce.
The vote has been voted, and now the result of the vote is announced.
FIFA President Blatter stood on the podium, opened the selection results closed in the ball, and announced the selection results to the world: "Mata scored 988 points, Prinz scored 507 points, Christiana scored 150 points, Miss World Football winner is Mata from Brazil! Congratulations on her successful defending the title!"
Mata was not sure before Blatt announced it. Now she finally felt relieved. She took the trophy handed to her by Blatt, held it high, and made a kiss at the guests on the scene.
The scene suddenly burst into warm applause, and the reporters also slapped Mata hard.
The female host Cablet said with a smile: "Miss Mata, congratulations on defending Miss World Football. At this moment, do you have anything to say to your fans, your relatives and the guests on the scene?"
Mata said excitedly: "I was very surprised. I didn't expect that I could defend my title successfully. After all, we didn't win this World Cup. I want to thank God for all this happening in my life. I also want to thank Saul, Santos and Brazil's national team team for this. This is a personal award, but without my teammates, I will not stand here to receive the award. I am very happy to win the second time. I will do my best to make sure that I can still stand here at the next time the award is presented. I hope this will promote the development of women's football."
Mata's award made Kaka and Messi around Chen Yu feel moved. They are just a different than Chen Yu in the championship. If they have the Champions League champion, the probability of winning is definitely greater than that of Chen Yu. However, now Mata has won the honor of Miss World Football without winning the Women's World Cup. Perhaps this miracle can also happen to Mr. World Football, and such miracles have not happened before. Ronaldinho in 2004 and Ronaldo in 2017 had successfully counterattacked without any title and won the title of Mr. World Football. Although the media previously believed that Chen Yu's award was almost a foregone conclusion, now with Marta's encouragement, Kaka and Messi have some luxury for the final result.
After the mystery of Miss World Football was revealed, the entire award ceremony was left with the final show: Mr. World Football Awards.
The selection of the European Golden Ball Awards was voted by sports journalists around the world, and the selection results of the World Footballer were voted by the head coaches and captains of national teams around the world. Each person can select three players, among which the player ranked first can get 5 points, the second place can get 3 points, and the third place can get 1 point, and the player with the highest accumulated points will be elected.
Such a selection is definitely more professional, but it must not be more objective, because as long as it is a selection that is participated in, it must have personal preferences. Perhaps some people like to speak with their grades. Everything is fine if they win the championship. If they can't win the championship, they will fail. Some people may like the players' imagination to perform on the court and are not very interested in the results. Some people may vote for a relationship and interest, so even if Chen Yu wins almost all the championships he can win, he cannot guarantee that he will be able to win this year's World Footballer.
When Chen Yu, Kaka and Messi were selected on the podium and FIFA President Blatt picked up the plastic ball for the voting results and was about to open it, almost everyone's eyes were cast on Blatt's hands. Zhang Shubin and Rick Barry didn't even dare to blink, as if the result of their blinking would change.
Chen Yu, Kaka and Messi were under the spotlight and were being paid attention to by people all over the world. When they came on stage, they tried their best to control their feelings and prevent him from revealing them. However, when Blatt began to remove the plastic ball, they were still obviously nervous, staring at Blatt's hands, and they didn't dare to breathe.
Blatter disassembled a small ball, "A AC Milan player Kaka from Brazil scored 476 points."
Hearing such a score, Kaka showed disappointment on her face. Although Blatt has not announced the scores of the other two people, it is obviously impossible to be elected with such a score.
Officials of the Milan Club and Kaka's relatives and friends also sighed, knowing that Kaka had no hope.
"Barcelona player Messi from Argentina, with 504 points."
Blatter disassembled the second ball and announced Messi's score.
Seeing that Messi's score was higher than Kaka, the guests on the court were talking, some were happy for Messi, and some were sorry for Kaka. However, because Messi and Kaka's scores were so close, the guests on the court couldn't help but wonder whether Chen Yu's score would be similar to these two people.
Just when everyone was still guessing, Blatt opened the last small ball and announced Chen Yu's score. "The Liverpool player Chen Yu from China scored...1047 points..."
When Blatt said this, before he could tell that Chen Yu was elected as the World Footballer this year, the guests below burst into a warm cheer, which directly interrupted Blatt's words.
Zhang Shubin and Rick Barry were the most excited. They jumped out of their seats and shouted at the podium, "Chen Yu, Chen Yu!"
After finally waiting for the sound at the scene to be a little weaker, Blatt announced: "I announce that this year's World Footballer winner is Chen Yu. Let us congratulate him on winning the award with applause."
There was warm applause again from the audience, and the cameras in the reporters also took photos of Chen Yu continuously.
Blatt personally handed the trophy to Chen Yu's hand, patted his shoulder, and smiled and said, "We're meeting again."
Chen Yu was also ecstatic at this moment. His goal was finally achieved. He became the best player in the world. However, I was not proud at this time and said to Blatt: "Thank you, Chairman, I hope to see you again next time."
Blatt looked at Kaka and Messi, laughed and said, "You are not going to give others a chance."
Although Kaka and Messi were in a very disappointed mood, they also came over to congratulate Chen Yu in a very graceful manner.
Next was to present awards to Kaka and Messi. Bailey did not become Bell Crow this time. Chen Yu was really elected as the World Footballer, but he made an own when presenting the awards, handed the silver ball to Kaka and the bronze ball to Messi.
At this time, the host Murray was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Pele to make such a low-level mistake. He quickly reminded: "Messi won the silver ball award, and Kaka won the bronze ball award."
Murray said it again, Bailey didn't hear it, and was still encouraging his fellow countrymen. Then the female host Cablatt reminded the King of Football again, but the King of Football still didn't hear it. In desperation, Cablatt had to come over and let Messi and Kaka exchange trophy.
Only then did Bailey realize that he had made an errand. He quickly apologized to Messikaka and walked off the stage with the sweat on his forehead.
Host Cablet smiled and said, "Justice King of Football just now, and now we ask the Xinke World Footballer to give us a speech on the winning of the award."
Chen Yu wanted to take out the manuscript he had written to read, but his friends all mocked him and said that Chinese people like to read it down when they speak. This time he decided to speak a few words without writing, and it doesn't need to be very rigorous anyway.
"This year is unparalleled for me. I have achieved a lot with Liverpool. The big prize I personally won is actually a recognition of the team's collective struggle. I never imagined that I would get so many rewards. In fact, I think the championship is the best reward for me, but the world is too generous to me and they gave me more.
I am the first Asian and Chinese to win the World Footballer, and the first Premier League player to win the World Footballer. I am very proud of this. This honor belongs not only to me, but also to Asia, China, and the Premier League.
The world football circle is experiencing a new cycle, with new faces constantly, new players are eager to try, and young people have already stepped onto the top stage. However, I will continue to work hard so that I will not be eliminated by this era. I hope I can still stand on this podium next time..."
Chen Yu's speech once again caused deafening applause from the scene. No one was convinced by Chen Yu's supporters except Kaka and Messi's supporters. Although Chen Yu's football skills and style are not as shocking as Messi, he is not much worse than Messi, and his performance is so outstanding. If he is not elected, no one can convince the public. Only Chen Yu's election is the least controversial.
Chapter completed!
