On August 17, after the storm subsided, FIFA dropped a big bomb.

Since 2010, the two major awards of "France Football" - the Ballon d'Or and "FIFA" - World Player of the Year have been merged!

The Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year have always been the ultimate awards for selecting a player.

This is also the greatest personal honor pursued by countless players.

For a long time, both awards were awarded individually or individually to one or two top performers.

But as the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in military power.

The so-called gold content of the Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year is also a hot topic among many people.

Especially with FIFA's shady operations, the value of the World Footballer has plummeted.

Therefore, after a mutual decision, the two major awards have been merged since 2010.

The new award is named [FIFA Ballon d’Or].

There is no competition for this award.

In other words, the football world will start now, and they will vote for the TOP1 every season, no one.

The selection rules continue the principle that each national team coach, captain and some professional media under FIFA each have one-third of the voting rights.

As soon as the news broke, the whole world was shocked.

This means that a ‘best’ will be selected every season, and there will be no one best.

Even if the performance is slightly worse, there will be no so-called consolation prize, but a direct companionship.

After announcing the restructuring, FIFA also announced a list of candidates including Suker, Xavi, Iniesta, Modric, Sneijder, Srna, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and others.

During this period, the restructuring of the ‘Golden Globe Awards’ has also become a hot topic for everyone.

"This transformation is really special!" Casillas pursed his lips and said.

It can't be said to be good, nor can it be said to be bad.

But the sudden restructuring made people feel a little uncomfortable after all.

But this has nothing to do with Casillas. After the 2010 World Cup, Spain won the championship, Raul retired from the national team, and Casillas became the captain of the Spanish national team.

He has voting rights for the Ballon d'Or.

At the same time, Srna, as the captain of the Croatian national team, also has voting rights.

"Who are you going to vote for?"

Casillas asked Srna.

Srna patted his chest: "Vote for myself!"

Everyone grinned, knowing that this guy was just joking.

"shameless!"

Suk complained softly.

Srna won the Triple Crown with Inter Milan and Croatia reached the semi-finals of the World Cup. He is eligible to enter the candidate list.

But its commercial value, fame and influence are not enough, so there is no chance of winning.

At the very least, Sneijder surpasses him in terms of team honors.

"Just kidding!" Srna also smiled and shrugged: "I vote for Su Ke!"

Casillas nodded.

There are many contradictions in this selection!

First of all, the three major events, World Cup, European Cup and Champions League, play a very critical role in selecting such awards.

Sneijder won the Triple Crown with Inter Milan and was runner-up in the World Cup.

Xavi and Iniesta are the core midfielders of the Spanish national team, and they were also the 2010 World Cup champions.

Suker, three golden boots in the Champions League, La Liga and World Cup, double crown in La Liga and Copa del Rey!

These four are the most competitive players currently.

Sneijder's disadvantage lies in his lack of fame and commercialization. He has enough honors for the club and the national team, but his personal honors are not good enough.

Xavi and Iniesta, the club's performance is not good. Barcelona did not win the championship last season, but it directly gained honors in the national team.

Suker's personal performance is outstanding, and he also has the Spanish league and cup championships, the semi-finals of the Champions League, and the third place in the World Cup!

After such a competition, Su Ke cannot be said to be crushed, but he does have a key advantage.

And after the news was announced, Florentino had already talked to Su Ke.

He said that he would work hard to win the Golden Globe Award for Suker after the restructuring in accordance with the previous agreement.

At the same time, Florentino also found Casillas, hoping to vote for Suker. It was not good for Suker to say such things.

Casillas was also a little hesitant about this issue.

After all, Xavi and Iniesta are teammates of his national team. It would be bad not to vote, but if he votes, who will he vote for?

As the captain of the national team, he can't favor one thing over another, right?

But if they vote for Suker, what should Xavi and Iniesta think?

Casillas looked clearly troubled.

Suk looked at Casillas and suddenly said: "Vote according to your ideas, without taking into account me!"

It's not that Suker doesn't want Casillas' vote.

However, Su Ke does have a great advantage.

Of course it's good to vote for him, but it's okay not to vote for him, it's not a bad vote!

After all, Su Ke has a good reputation among the coaches and captains of various national teams, including in the media. With Zolanci's tireless efforts to create an image for him, his support is definitely the highest among the four.

Seeing Casillas still looking confused, Suker waved his hand and said, "Don't think about it, the game is about to start, focus on the game!"

On August 22, five days later, the Spanish Super Cup will start.

The Spanish Super Cup is a little different from pre-season games in other leagues.

A two-leg system of home and away games was adopted.

The league champion and the Copa del Rey winner will compete. If they are the same team, then the second place in the league will take the place.

Last season, Real Madrid won the La Liga championship and the Copa del Rey, so Barcelona took over the Spanish Super Cup.

Two rounds of home and away games.

On August 22, the first leg was played at Camp Nou.

On August 27, the second leg was played at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

In two rounds of confrontation, the one with the higher score wins.

Won the first championship before the season.

For Barcelona, ​​they ended last season without a title.

They made a desperate move in the Champions League, but were ultimately knocked out by Manchester United.

This elimination had a chain reaction, and the league and the Copa del Rey were also lost.

For Real Madrid, if they had listened to Pellegrini's advice, their situation would only be worse than Barcelona.

It may even be dragged down by the Champions League, leading to irreversible encounters in the league.

But fortunately, Real Madrid made a decisive decision and fired Pellegrini!

The Spanish Super Cup does not have high gold content.

In any league, the pre-season cup competition is not very valuable and can even be said to be a ‘warm-up match’.

For example, England's Community Shield Cup follows the rules of a warm-up match, with multiple substitutions, and it has basically become a warm-up match.

The Spanish Super Cup does a better job in this regard. At least it is like a cup competition and more professional!

However, the gold content is not high.

It’s an icing on the cake champion!

For five days, Real Madrid stopped all physical fitness and high-intensity training.

In the morning, there will be a tactical class, a simple drill on tactical movements, combined with warm-up, ball feel, jogging and other training.

We have joint training in the afternoon, but it is mainly about adjustments, and the intensity is also very small.

To deal with Barcelona!

Mourinho emphasized the importance of pressing high.

Although the tactical system is still a defensive counterattack, it will not be passive like during the Inter Milan period, and only started to use pressing tactics in the half.

Pintus' devilish physical training has greatly boosted the running ability of Real Madrid players.

As for single-point restrictions, Mourinho still asked Alonso and Khedira to adopt a flanking tactic against Messi.

Ancelotti and Mourinho have both used this tactic to successfully offset Messi's threat, so he plans to repeat the same trick this time.

Unless Guardiola finds a way to free Messi.

Otherwise, Mourinho will tightly contain Messi, and at the same time use Suker and Kaka's counterattack to squeeze Barcelona's neck little by little until he stops breathing.

Spanish Super Cup.

The preliminary game before the start of La Liga is originally a game with little gold content, but because it is Barcelona versus Real Madrid, almost all European media gathered here again.

From the beginning of the day, the Camp Nou stadium was in an exciting atmosphere.

Spain just won the World Cup this year, which has brought the football atmosphere to its highest level in history.

Based on the outstanding performance of teams such as Barcelona and Real Madrid in the European war, and with the blessing of the World Cup champions, there are also superstars such as Suker, Messi, Kaká, Xavi, Iniesta, Casillas and so on. Blessings, this game is full of fun to watch!

Real Madrid are unpopular in Barcelona.

Barcelona fans booed them on the way from the hotel to the stadium.

Although these are Spanish fans, and Casillas and others are also Spanish internationals, this is a club event. If you should scold you or boo you, you should do it.

Compared with last season, the entire game and the atmosphere of watching the game have become more enthusiastic.

Perhaps they have not yet recovered from the frenzy of the World Cup, so the faces of Barcelona fans have a hint of fanaticism.

Of course, they will not show any mercy when they criticize Real Madrid.

Real Madrid players are used to this.

They silently took the bus to the stadium. After all, they were on other people's territory, not to mention the double defeat of Barcelona last season. How friendly can these fans be.

A group of Real Madrid's superstars arrived at the Camp Nou.

They were greeted by a barrage of long guns and short cannons.

Mourinho bore the brunt.

"What are your expectations for this game?"

"Can Real Madrid accept defeat here?"

"Are you ready to fail against Pep Guardiola's Barcelona?"

These Catalan journalists are really disgusting.

In response, Mourinho resisted the urge to spit and walked into the venue.

At this time, a reporter suddenly grabbed Mourinho.

"Let go!" Mourinho turned around and yelled.

The reporter quickly said, "Just a question, sir?"

Mourinho looked at the other party's press card and found that it was a British reporter. He nodded and said: "There is only one question."

The reporter immediately said happily: "How do you evaluate Su Ke?"

Mourinho said casually; "He is one of the best players I have ever seen. He has unparalleled talent and courage. He is also a player who can create miracles."

"So is he an excellent striker?" the reporter continued to ask.

Mourinho frowned.

This guy is pushing the envelope.

"Yes!"

Mourinho nodded.

At this time, the reporter changed the topic: "But in interviews a few years ago, you said that Su Ke's positional sense is not good. He is very comprehensive, but has no characteristics. Drogba is better than him!"

After that, the reporter took out an old newspaper.

The line above.

"Mourinho said that Su Ke is a unique striker! 》

The reporter grinned, looking like he was watching a good show.

Mourinho's mouth moved and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Pooh!"

Mourinho shook his head and left.

damn it!

You have to force me to spit on you!

Watching Mourinho leave, the reporter took off his British reporter's work badge and replaced it with his real press pass from the Catalan newspaper.

Immediately, amidst the cheers of all the local colleagues, he left like a victorious rooster with his head raised.

Mourinho walked into the venue, and Suker and other Real Madrid players followed closely behind.

They ignored the reporters on both sides.

After entering the venue, Suk couldn't help but let out a breath.

“These reporters are digging holes every time we come here to play football, so shutting up is the best option.”

I didn’t see that Mourinho, the talkative king, was frustrated.

Obviously, Mourinho has not adapted to the Spanish reporter's ability to dig holes and set the pace.

"Suke!!!——"

At this moment, shouts came from the distance.

Suk turned to look over.

He was the first to notice a large, shiny forehead.

The broad forehead occupies one-third of the face, with slightly long yellow hair.

The person coming was Rakitic.

Rakitic wore a work permit on his chest and came to Suk and Srna.

Srna greeted Rakitic with a smile.

Suk was shocked and said, "Why are you here?"

Rakitic blinked: "I asked the club for Super Cup tickets and planned to experience the atmosphere in advance."

"Club?" Su Ke was puzzled; "Schalke 04 gave us tickets for the Spanish Super Cup? You flew over from Germany to watch this game?"

"What Schalke 04!" Rakitic said suspiciously; "You don't know, do you?"

Suk turned his attention to Srna.

Srna shrugged: "He just transferred to Sevilla in the summer window. Luca and the others know about it, but you don't know?"

Su Ke was stunned for a moment.

He really doesn't know.

During the World Cup, he was fully immersed in the game and did not pay attention to the news.

After answering the question of going to Spain, Su Ke also threw himself into work.

Even though the Spanish local media reported again, they were more about blockbuster transfers such as Kaká and Srna.

Rakitic, the little Karami, will probably be reported by the local media in Seville.

"You really don't know, do you?" Rakitic asked suspiciously.

Su Ke waved his hand: "Next time I meet you, I will score one less goal."

"So, you admit that you don't know, right?"

"As long as one is missing, the rest cannot be guaranteed."

"Do you think you know?"

"I don't know!" Suk stared: "What can I do? Are you going to bite me?"

As soon as Suker became fierce, Rakitic immediately became scared.

"If you don't know, you don't know. Why are you so fierce?" Rakitic complained.

Su Ke: "It's not like joining a wealthy club. I know where to go, but you didn't tell me."

Rakitic; "I said it!"

Srna: "More than once!"

Su Ke was silent.

I guess he really didn't take it seriously. It went in through his left ear and came out through his right ear.

"Get out! Get out! Go watch your game and don't bother me!"

After that, Su pulled Srna and walked towards the locker room.

Rakitic also smiled and shook his head, turning towards his seat in the stands.

Inside the Real Madrid dressing room.

Mourinho began to announce the starting lineup.

This is basically the starting lineup during the warm-up match, and Real Madrid players are also prepared for this.

After all, judging from the performance in several warm-up matches, there is a reason why the main force is the main force.

If they want to challenge the main force, they can only put in more effort.

Shh~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~! ! ! ! ——

There were shrill boos.

The boos from the 100,000 fans at Camp Nou were deafening.

As soon as the Real Madrid players entered the stadium, the audience was booed.

However, this hardly affected them at all.

Suk picked his ears; "Do you feel like you're not as oppressed as before?"

Kaka also nodded.

"I know!"

Sirna said quietly.

The two turned their heads and looked over.

Srna made a trumpet-blowing gesture.

Suk and Kaka immediately understood.

Humzura!

The noise maker of the World Cup in South Africa was so loud that my head was about to split open.

But after being baptized by the Humzula, ordinary catcalls are really not that intimidating.

Barcelona's half.

Iniesta and Xavi stood together, looking at the opposite half from a distance with solemn expressions.

"Real Madrid is not playing well this season!"

In Real Madrid last season, Su Ke led the team alone and showed strong combat effectiveness, but did not have a suitable system. At the same time, they encountered a coaching change, but even so, they still defeated them in the season.

But this season, with Mourinho coaching the team, Kaká, Srna and others have joined the team.

Barcelona also doesn’t know what kind of game Real Madrid can play now.

However, it is definitely difficult to deal with!

"David, be on your best behavior!"

Iniesta gave a thumbs up to David Villa.

Villa's performance in the World Cup was outstanding. After joining Barcelona, ​​he will definitely increase the threat to their striker.

Xavi also turned to look at Messi.

"Leo, don't be anxious, kick slowly, we believe in you!"

Listening to Harvey's encouragement, Messi pursed his lips and nodded for the unknown.

In this regard, Xavi and Iniesta could only sigh silently.

Since Suker joined, there has been controversy about the competition between Suker and Messi.

But now, Messi is gradually being suppressed by Suker.

This also puts Messi in a confused state when playing against Real Madrid.

They still firmly believe that Messi is very talented.

But this guy Suk is like a monster.

It's like the last era.

There are many geniuses and many masters, but there is only one alien.

But the aliens in this era are even more difficult to deal with!
