After a while, the three Miss Football candidates also came to the backstage one after another and greeted Messi and Iniesta.
Then, when it was Qiao Anchen's turn, Marta, who had won the Miss World Football title five times and often attended various award ceremonies, pretended to be surprised, looked at Qiao Anchen, and said jokingly: "Little brother, are you in the wrong place? This
This is a professional football awards ceremony, not a youth training camp."
Everyone in the room laughed.
Everyone knows that Marta is praising Qiao Anchen for achieving such great achievements at the age of 16.
Qiao Anchen quoted a famous Chinese female writer's words and laughed: "There is no way, you have to become famous early. If you become famous late, you will not be happy."
Everyone gave Qiao Anchen a thumbs up and said: "You are awesome!"
As time went by, at 20:00 on the evening of January 7, 2013, the 2012 FIFA Year-End Awards Ceremony officially began in Zurich, Switzerland.
Hosts Gullit and Kai Morley stepped onto the podium, welcomed the players, coaches, and guests who came to attend the award ceremony, and introduced the various awards of the FIFA year-end awards ceremony. Then Gullit said: "
Now, let us give warm applause to Marta, one of the candidates for Miss World Football 2012!"
Amid the applause of the audience and guests, the core figure of the Brazilian women's football team, the world women's football legend Marta, who has won the honor of Miss World Football for five consecutive years in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010, was honored by Qiao Anchen and others.
Amidst the applause, he left the backstage and came to the awards stage.
Marta hugged Gullit and Kai Mori, and after waving hello to the audience below, Kai Mori invited Alex Morgan, the second Miss World Football candidate, and finally Ai
Bee Wambach.
After the three Miss Football World candidates all appeared, the host asked them to step off the podium and take their seats in the specially reserved front row.
Then, Kay Morley said: "The following will be the three candidates for the 2012 FIFA Ballon d'Or. Let us invite the first candidate, Qiao Anchen from Atletico Madrid!"
The scene immediately burst into warm applause. Parents, aunts and uncles, agent Mendes, Atletico Madrid chairman Cerezo, coach Simeone, teammate Falcao and others applauded particularly hard.
Backstage, Qiao Anchen had also been prepared under the guidance of the staff. After hearing his name, he walked out slowly and came to the award podium.
She shook hands with Gullit and Kay Mori slightly nervously, and then stood between the two hosts, waiting for the two candidates behind to appear.
Afterwards, Iniesta and Messi were invited out one after another. After the three candidates made a collective appearance, they entered the front row and took their seats amidst everyone's applause.
Candidates for the FIFA Ballon d'Or and World Football Miss were unveiled. After taking their seats, Gullit said:
"In the past year, there have been countless classic goals in international football, some of which people will never tire of, and they are amazing."
"Three of the goals were selected for the final top three list of the 2012 Puskas Award. Now, let's take a look at these three goals."
The three best goals that made it to the final shortlist began to play on the big screen. The first was Neymar's long-distance goal after passing several people in the Brazilian League, and the second was Fenerbahce player Stork.
Qi scored a goal with a volley from a corner kick outside the penalty area in the Turkish Super League.
The last one is that in the 11th round of La Liga on November 11, when Atletico Madrid beat Getafe 7-0, in the 89th minute, Qiao Anchen turned his back to the goal to receive a volley pass from teammate Raul Garcia, stopped the ball with his chest, turned and volleyed
The goal that broke through the 100-goal mark for the year in one go.
Storch's volley shot from outside the penalty area was selected into the top three, which shows that Qiao Anchen's shot is farther away, more enjoyable to watch, and has a more significant goal status.
Although everyone has watched the video, defense, and highlights of this ball before, watching it again at the scene still aroused applause from many players, coaches, and guests.
This ball is so beautiful and silky.
It is almost certain that Storch will not be able to compete with Qiao Anchen. It just depends on who Neymar will win in the judges' vote after running past several people for a long distance.
Fans and netizens from all over the world watching the live broadcast on TV commented on social platforms:
“It’s so silky and very refreshing!”
"Qiao Anchen's goal will definitely win the Puskas Award."
"This goal is not only smooth and beautiful, but also very important. It is Qiao Anchen's goal that broke the 100-goal mark for the year."
"Yes, although Falcao's goal is good, it cannot be compared with Qiao Anchen's goal in terms of excitement and importance. As for Storch, it is completely impossible to compete with Qiao Anchen."
"It would be unforgivable if this goal does not win the Puskas Award."
After the three best goals were played, the Puskas Award was not awarded immediately.
The first thing to be announced was actually the 2012 FIFA World Team of the Year, and the award guests were Ukrainian nuclear warhead Andriy Shevchenko and UEFA President Platini.
Shevchenko was the winner of the European Ballon d'Or in 2004, and Platini was the winner of the European Ballon d'Or for three consecutive years in 1983, 1984, and 1985. Together with Messi, he also holds the most European Ballon d'Or awards.
, the record for the longest winning streak.
If Messi wins another award this year, he will surpass Platini and become the record for the most awards and the longest consecutive awards.
However, everyone knows that this is difficult.
Messi has only one Copa del Rey, followed by the La Liga Golden Boot and the Champions League Golden Boot, while Joanna has the Europa League, the European Super Cup, and the Europa League Golden Boot.
The most important thing is that Qiao Anchen broke through the unprecedented three-digit mark in total goals for the year.
This is the most devastating statistic. Neither Messi nor Iniesta can compete with Joan Chen's record of 117 goals in the year.
Of course, this is all a thing for another day. Now Shevchenko and Platini are on stage to present the Best Team of the Year award.
The 11 people selected for the 2012 FIFA Team of the Year (433) are: goalkeeper Casillas, defender Alves, Pique, Ramos, Marcelo, midfielder Xabi Alonso, Ha
In fact, there is no real center among the three forwards. Qiao Anchen and Messi have somewhat overlapping positions, both are right wingers, while Cristiano Ronaldo is the left winger.
However, we don’t really want to play in the same team, so it doesn’t matter if we line them up like this. We can’t kick out any of these three and replace them with a forward whose statistics are far inferior.
That's so unconvincing.
However, the release of this annual best team has still been greatly questioned.
It's not that these people are not outstanding, but the entire list is from La Liga, and there is no player from other leagues. Even last season's Champions League champion Chelsea, no one was selected.
Judging from the players' clubs and leagues, it is indeed a bit outrageous.
But in fact, after referring to the club's results and the Spanish national team's performance in winning the European Cup, you will find that this list is also reasonable.
It's just that it's emotionally difficult for fans of other leagues to accept it.
After Qiao Anchen and others received the trophies from the presenters, a brief performance highlight of these 11 people in the past year was also played on the big screen. However, there were not many shots of each person, only ten seconds.
