Chapter 293 Won the 2012 European Golden Boy Award
Barcelona defeated Atletico Madrid 4-1, reversed their ranking, and climbed to the top of the standings. Two days later, on December 18, Barcelona coach Vilanova discovered during a physical examination that his parotid gland cancer tumor had recurred and the cancer cells had spread.
Phenomenon.
The Barcelona club announced that Vilanova needs surgery to remove the tumor and then undergo chemotherapy, which will take at least 6 weeks. The club will have assistant coach Lula as the interim head coach.
As soon as the news came out, the joy of Barcelona players and fans who had just climbed to the top of the standings turned into sadness.
Everyone is praying that Vilanova's surgery goes smoothly and he can come back smoothly and lead Barcelona to continue to compete in football.
After Guardiola left, Vilanova led Barcelona to a 16-game unbeaten season this season, and in the just-concluded 16th round of the league, they defeated Atletico Madrid 4-1 at home and came back to top the list.
Such a record is not bad.
It also means that Atletico Madrid has an incredible Qiao Anchen. Otherwise, Barcelona, which has been undefeated in 16 rounds and only tied once, will definitely have a higher points advantage over the second place.
La Liga players and coaches have prayed for Vilanova, hoping that he will recover smoothly from surgery and return to the game as soon as possible.
Simeone, Joan Chen and other Atletico Madrid coaches and players also expressed their concern for Vilanova in interviews with reporters.
Although Atletico Madrid was just defeated by Barcelona 4-1 and took away the top spot in the standings, in the face of cancer and health that involve life, what does the grudge on the field mean?
No matter when, life comes first after all.
This is also the main reason why three players killed the linesman during a youth football match in the Netherlands, causing an uproar around the world.
No matter what grievances or grievances you have, no matter how wrong the other party’s judgment is, the crime will not lead to death!
The three of you beat someone to death, and the reason that was originally yours has become unreasonable. Moreover, it is a direct intentional homicide and a violation of the law. You will go to jail.
A day later, another piece of news occupied important pages of football media in various countries and even made the front page headlines: Falcao, the emperor of futsal, hit an incredible free kick in the history of the game.
In a match of the Brazilian Futsal League, Falcao's team received a free kick.
Because the five-a-side football field is small and the free kick is very close to the goal, scoring a goal involves a lot of luck.
When Falcao's teammates lightly touched the ball outside the penalty area and took a tactical free kick, the opponent's goalkeeper and defender both stepped forward to block Falcao's shot angle.
As a result, Falcao stepped forward at this time, and instead of trying his luck in shooting with his big foot, he clamped the ball with both feet and lifted it upwards. He made an unexpected rainbow pass and lifted the ball over the heads of the defender and goalkeeper.
Flying into the goal.
This unprecedented free kick "rainbow shot" shocked the scene and shocked the whole world after the game. It was dubbed "the coolest free kick in history" by many media.
Naturally, Qiao Anchen and his teammates also saw this free kick on news and video websites. They couldn't help but be amazed and never tire of watching it.
If there was no precedent for Falcao's rainbow shot, even if Qiao Anchen used the system to increase all his skills to full value and let him play indoor football, he would never have thought of this move.
This is a ball that is truly played with talent and a flash of inspiration. Falcao is worthy of being the world-renowned "Emperor of Indoor Football". His dazzling footwork skills and unbridled imagination are indeed breathtaking. These kicks by Qiao Anchen
People who play 11-a-side football can also refer to it.
It is said that Ronaldinho's unbridled imagination and skills also have origins in indoor football and street football.
On December 20, the 2012/2013 Champions League top 16 draw ceremony was held at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.
According to the lottery principle, the first team in the group will fight against the second team in the group. Teams in the same league and group need to avoid early duels.
The final draw results are: Galatasaray vs Schalke 04, Celtic vs Juventus, Arsenal vs Bayern Munich, Shakhtar Donetsk vs Borussia Dortmund, Zenit St. Petersburg vs Barcelona, Real Madrid vs
Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain vs Valencia, Porto vs Atletico Madrid.
The one with the last name is the first in each group. The schedule is guest first, then home, which occupies a certain advantage.
The Sheets got a good draw. Although Porto is also considered a giant in the Portuguese Super League, it is undoubtedly much weaker than Real Madrid and Arsenal.
If Manchester United is drawn against Real Madrid or Bayern is drawn against Arsenal, there will undoubtedly be a lot of headaches.
In the Champions League winning odds list in the top 16, Barcelona ranks first, followed by Real Madrid, Bayern Munich third, and Atletico Madrid fourth.
It's not that Atletico Madrid led by Joan Anchen is not strong, it's just that he doesn't have enough foundation after all. Moreover, if Joan Anchen is injured and suspended, he may be beaten by Barcelona like the last La Liga game.
But in the end, it shouldn't be much of a problem for Qiao Anchen's team to get through Porto and advance to the quarterfinals.
On the same day, the Argentine media broke a shocking news, saying that the retired God of War Batistuta was involved in a fraud case.
The specific reason is that Batistuta himself couldn't remember when he signed two fans on a blank piece of paper, and then the two fans took the blank piece of paper with Batistuta's autograph and forged it.
They got an IOU, which said that Batistuta borrowed $60,000 from them. It had Batistuta’s home address and “autograph” on it. Now the two of them took the IOU and asked Batistuta to
Pay back the money.
This IOU was "auto-signed" by him, and it was a fake IOU that confused Batistuta. However, he did not recognize the two people, so he finally called the police.
Fortunately, the police were aware of everything and discovered that the two men were habitual fraud offenders. Through interrogation, they obtained the details of how the two men used blank paper to obtain Batistuta's signature and forged IOUs to defraud Batistuta, and successfully solved the case.
This is really a waste of time and money, and it ends up sending you to jail.
But this news and case also reminded celebrities such as Qiao Anchen: signatures should not be signed randomly, especially on blank paper, to avoid being used by criminals.
This time it was to defraud Batistuta himself. Because Batistuta did not know these two people and did not remember that he owed them money, he called the police to solve the case. But next time the scammer uses celebrity signatures to defraud other people, I am afraid he will still be defrauded.
It is really possible to succeed!
On December 21, the 17th round of La Liga, when Atletico Madrid faced Celta Vigo at home, Joan Chen finally returned after being suspended for three games and was able to appear in Atletico Madrid's starting lineup and the Calderon Stadium again.
If Qiao Anchen can continue to score in this game, he will continue to refresh his La Liga consecutive goal record and annual total goal record.
At the same time, this is Atletico Madrid's last game before the winter break and the last official game in 2012.
After this game, Atletico Madrid and other La Liga teams will have a holiday and enter the winter break.
Also on the 21st, Tuttosport also announced the name of the winner of the 2012 European Golden Boy Award.
There is no suspense that the candidate to win the 2012 European Golden Boy Award is Atletico Madrid forward Qiao Anchen.
There is no need to mention anything else. As long as the total number of goals scored in the year of 115 is shown, it is enough to crush everything and be elected without a doubt.
"Turin Sports News" has contacted Atletico Madrid and Qiao Anchen to award Qiao Anchen before the game starts that night.
A combination of various factors, this last game at the end of the year, even though it was freezing cold, the temperature was freezing, and it was snowing, it still attracted tens of thousands of Atletico Madrid fans and filled the entire Calderon Stadium to a full house.
Fans who knew that Tuttosport was going to present an award to Qiao Anchen came in early and basically filled the stands in advance.
Forty minutes before the game, the stadium announcer Ever Woodrow, who acted as the host, invited Paul, the editor-in-chief of "Turin Sports News".
Paul appeared with the European Golden Boy Award spherical trophy, which is one size smaller than the FIFA Ballon d'Or, to the warm applause of the Atletico Madrid fans. He first introduced the history of the European Golden Boy Award to the fans, the selection rules, and introduced the previous awards.
The winner was announced and the winner of the 2012 European Golden Boy Award was announced: Qiao Anchen.
Then, Ever Woodrow, at Paul's signal, shouted loudly: "Now, let us give the warmest applause to the winner of the 2012 European Golden Boy Award, the great Calderon King - Joan Chen!"
More than 50,000 fans in the audience burst into applause, welcoming Qiao Anchen's appearance with huge applause and cheers.
Qiao Anchen trotted out of the players' tunnel, running towards Ever Woodrow and Paul, while waving to the fans to say thank you, which attracted even greater applause and cheers.
Later, after Qiao Anchen shook hands with Ever Woodrow and Paul, he received the 2012 European Golden Boy Award trophy from Paul, the editor-in-chief of Turin Sports News, under the watchful eyes of all the fans.
