When they arrived in London, Mo Yang and Perret were taken to a star hotel next to Pallas by staff sent by FIFA to rest.
The awards ceremony won't start until 7pm.
Perret didn't stay in Moyang's room for long, he answered the phone and left in a hurry.
Mo Yang was about to go online to kill time, but there was a knock on the door.
"Hey! Steven!!"
Mo Yang was surprised and happy when he opened the door and saw it was Gerald.
"Isn't that surprising! Haha!" Gerald smiled brightly and stepped forward to give Mo Yang a warm hug. The two had not seen each other for more than two years.
Mo Yang was infinitely grateful to Gerald, his old neighbor. Gerald had helped him a lot back then. This was a favor.
Also, if Gerrard hadn't invited him to participate in his farewell game, he wouldn't have met Klopp and wouldn't have been recommended to Bielsa. Then maybe he would have returned to China by now.
"Yang, congratulations on being shortlisted for the Puskas Award, but believe me, the influence of this award is infinitely close to zero! Haha!"
After sitting down in the living room, Gerald made a direct joke. He was not angry because he hadn't seen him for more than two years. He still liked to joke as before.
Mo Yang didn't care and said with a smile: "Steven, for me who lacks honors, this is a recognition and a very meaningful award. My trophy cabinet has been prepared for it in advance.
Location."
Gerrard was amused, but he could understand. He was also like this back then. Every time he won an award, he would be happy for a long time.
"Believe me, you will not lack honors in the future. You have the potential and strength to win the Ballon d'Or. I hope to see you win that trophy in the future and become the third person after Messi and Cristiano!"
"Maybe!"
Mo Yang smiled and competed with Melo for the Golden Globe Award. Mo Yang felt a little unreal when he thought about it.
He doesn’t know Messi, but he has played against Ronaldo once and is very familiar with him. He has fully understood why that guy with a childish streak in his character is one of the most popular superstars on the planet.
It's just too powerful.
"We can see each other more often in the future!" While chatting, Jerad suddenly said this, leaving Mo Yang stunned.
Seeing Mo Yang's confused look, Gerrard smiled and said: "I accepted the club's invitation. After this season, I will officially become the head coach of the Liverpool U18 youth team!"
"Really? This is great!" Mo Yang smiled happily.
Mo Yang had also heard the news about the English League One team inviting Gerrard before. He really didn't expect that Gerrard would refuse the opportunity to coach the first team.
Next, the two chatted about some daily trivial matters, and then went to the restaurant of Le Hotel to have lunch together.
Gerald left after lunch. As soon as he got down to the hotel lobby, the cell phone in Gerald's arms rang.
Stopping and taking out the phone from his pocket, Gerald saw a playful smile on his face when he saw it was Henry calling.
"See you!"
"Yang refused! But he told me that he had no intention of leaving Liverpool and that he was very comfortable in Liverpool."
"good!"
Gerald hung up the phone without saying a few words, and immediately burst into laughter.
In fact, he didn't mention the new contract to Mo Yang at all. He wouldn't do such a thankless and stupid thing.
Henry showed Gerrard Mo Yang's new contract.
Gerrard had to admit that it was really rich, but it was none of his business!
He had just learned from Mo Yang that Mo Yang had no intention of leaving Liverpool yet, and that was enough.
And Gerrard never thought that Mo Yang would stay at Liverpool forever.
Living alone in a city is already a very luxurious thing in this era of gold and dollar football.
…
At 6 o'clock in the evening, Mo Yang and Perret, who had already finished their looks, and Klopp, who was also wearing a crisp suit, appeared on the green carpet at the awards ceremony.
Klopp came to the awards ceremony this time because he was also selected for the 2017 Best Coach of the Year candidate list.
After entering the award ceremony, Mo Yang and Klopp separated from Perret.
Both of them are likely to win awards today, so their positions are arranged in the front row.
When he walked to the stage, Mo Yang found that the first few rows were almost full, and he seemed to be the last one to arrive.
Good guys, Modric, Ramos, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Marcelo, Kroos, Bonucci, Neymar, etc., they are all famous football stars.
In addition to these current stars, there are also many football legends who have retired for many years, such as Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Maradona, Edwin van der Sar, Schmeichel, Matthaus and other legendary stars.
In addition, there are many famous football coaches. Mo Yang also saw German coach Loew, Chelsea's Mourinho, Real Madrid's Zidane, Guardiola and others in the crowd.
.
With this lineup, Mo Yang felt that the awards ceremony of the Duti Awards was weak and completely incomparable.
Ronaldo, who was on the other side, saw Mo Yang and stood up and waved hello with a wicked smile on his face.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes in the first few rows fell on Mo Yang, who was wearing a black suit and his hair was slicked back, making Mo Yang feel uncomfortable all over.
Smiling stiffly around him, Mo Yang pretended to be calm, turned around and sat down, but he almost couldn't reach the chair and sat on the ground, causing constant laughter in the front row.
"Ha ha!"
Cristiano Ronaldo on the other side saw that Mo Yang was almost embarrassed, and immediately clapped his hands and laughed with joy.
Cristiano Ronaldo turned around and smiled at Messi: "Leo, Yang's technical characteristics are not only similar to yours, but his personality is also similar. They are both shy!"
Messi smiled politely and just nodded without saying anything!
Soon, the award ceremony officially began.
After a not-so-splendid rap show, the first award was the Puskas Award.
The giant screen on the stage played the three best goals that were finally selected this year one by one.
The on-site host Elba also began to explain one by one, and his words were humorous.
When the scene of Mo Yang's goal appeared, there was an uproar in the relatively quiet scene, followed by warm applause.
"When I saw this goal, I couldn't believe that after Carlos retired, there were still players who could hit such a long-distance free kick!" Elba deliberately said in an extremely exaggerated tone.
The scene footage also switched back and forth between Mo Yang and Carlos at this time, and finally locked on Mo Yang.
At this moment, another female host, Bonner, came to Mo Yang, handed the microphone to Mo Yang's mouth, and asked: "Yang, if you are given another chance, are you still sure to kick in?"
Mo Yang smiled, shook his head, and said: "This is a question with no answer. I was in a very strange state at that time. If you give me another chance, maybe I won't be able to copy it!"
After receiving Mo Yang's answer, Bonner stared at De Gea in the back row, directly addressed the topic, and asked with a smile: "Mr. De Gea, can you tell me how you felt in front of the door?
"
"That was the weirdest goal I have ever encountered in my career, bar none. It made me forget all the saving skills I had learned while standing in front of the goal!" De Gea smiled calmly.
After some laughter, Elba on the stage invited the award guest Gerrard to the stands.
"The goal that was elected as the best goal received 71% of the votes!"
As soon as the smiling Gerrard finished speaking, the dark big screen behind him suddenly lit up, and the scene of Mo Yang's goal appeared.
"tions!"
"Positive!"
When Gerald called out Mo Yang's name, the whole theater burst into violent applause.
At the same time, there are countless Chinese fans cheering at home.
This award ceremony was broadcast live on the domestic Y5 sports channel, so that all fans could see this moment with their own eyes. This is their pride, the most beautiful kid in the history of Chinese football.
Mo Yang stood up and hugged Klopp, straightened his collar and went to the stage to receive the award. Even Cristiano Ronaldo stood up and walked over, giving Mo Yang a congratulatory hug.
After receiving the Puskas Trophy from Gerrard, Mo Yang began a brief acceptance speech with only a few sentences. He knew very well that he was not the protagonist today.
"I also hope to have the opportunity to win other awards in the future!"
But Mo Yang's last sentence successfully made everyone present laugh.
Next, each annual award will be announced one by one.
Cristiano Ronaldo defeated Messi and Neymar and was elected the 2017 World Footballer of the Year.
There is no suspense about the award for the best men's football coach of the year. It was given to Klopp, who led Liverpool to win the first Premier League championship and Europa League championship in team history last season. This guy did not let this guy go in vain.
Witnessing the process of Cristiano Ronaldo receiving the award and the eleven members of the best team of the year taking the stage to receive the award, Mo Yang felt envious in his heart. He hoped that he would have this day too.
