In 1956, "France Football" magazine founded the "Golden Ball Award", and the first winner was Stanley Mathews, an English player who played for Blackpool.

Since then, with the development, the "Ballon d'Or" is an important personal award that measures a player's season performance, also known as the "European Player of the Year" player award.

After the merger of the Ballon d'Or and World Footballer, the gold content of this award increased again, becoming the only 'Best Player' award.

In the history of the Ballon d'Or, three players have won the award three times while in active service.

They are Cruyff and Van Basten of the Netherlands, and Platini of France.

They are also the players who currently hold the most Ballon d'Or awards.

But on January 12, 2012, all this was broken.

As Suker won his fourth Ballon d'Or, he became the player with the most awards in the history of the Ballon d'Or.

He is also the player with the most honors currently in this award.

When Suker won the fourth Ballon d'Or, all this showed that Suker was no longer just an active player. His performance was hitting the historical level, crossing time and space to compete with those predecessors who once shone in football. Hui.

The most important thing is that Su Ke won his fourth trophy at the age of 26, and he will have the opportunity to win more trophies in the future.

Taking a closer look at Suk's performance, no one will doubt this.

In order to record this historic moment, "France Football" invited Suker to shoot a short interview.

This is a 1V1 interview mode. Su Ke is wearing a formal dress, and a brand new Golden Globe Award trophy is quietly placed next to him.

Reporter: "Have you been obsessed with football since you were a child?"

Su Ke; "I really want to say yes, but in fact, in that era of roaring guns, I need to live first compared to football!"

Reporter: "You mean the war in the former Yugoslavia, right? If you don't mind, can you talk about it?"

Su Ke; "I'm sorry, I mind. That is a time period that I don't want to recall. I can only say that war is cruel, far more cruel than you imagine, so I long for peace!"

Reporter; "Okay, let's talk about football again!"

Suk; "Great idea! I like this!"

Reporter; "Who played an important role in your football career?"

Suker; "There are many people. The current achievements are not due to my efforts alone. Many people have helped me, such as Oripe, Van Steyak, Besic, Maldini, Ancelotti, etc." And of course Mr. Perez, I almost forgot about him."

The reporter couldn't help but laugh.

Su Ke; "Remember to put him in front, please, he is a good boss!"

Reporter: "Okay, I understand. I heard an interesting rumor. I heard that former teammates in Milan really want your computer. Is it special?"

Su Ke; "It's just an ordinary computer, but the content inside is very interesting!"

Reporter; "Can you share it?"

Suk; "I like to keep things like this for myself, and of course, if they mess with me, you might know what's in them!"

Reporter; "How do you evaluate Milan and Real Madrid?"

Suker; "Both are great teams, but their greatness is in different directions, but for me, they are both places that I need to protect with all my heart."

Reporter: "How do you evaluate teammates from two eras? What would be the result if you put them together to play together?"

Su Ke opened his mouth and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Sorry! I can't make a comment. That Milan team only exists in my memory. Only I know how good they are. Of course, the current teammates are also great, but I don't want to Comparing them, they have all fought alongside me, and in my mind, they are all the best!”

Reporter; "The greatest captain?"

Suk; "Martini! No one else!"

Reporter; "Where's Srna?"

Su Ke; "He is a long-winded aunt! But he is also very good!"

Reporter: "Hahahahaha! If you were asked to choose the best midfielder, who would you choose?"

Su Ke: "Active duty?"

Reporter; "Active duty!"

Suker; "Xavi Alonso!"

Reporter; "I thought you would choose Modric, why Alonso?"

Suker; "Because he will pass the ball to me. Luka is at Manchester United and he will not pass the ball to me!"

The reporter burst into laughter again.

Reporter; "Okay! Congratulations again on winning your fourth Golden Globe!"

Suker's fourth Golden Globe Award became the hottest news at the beginning of 2012.

After all, this broke the honor record held by Cruyff, Van Basten and Platini.

Moreover, Su Ke's performance is also worthy of this award, and there is no controversy at all.

The interview with Suker also gained enough popularity, allowing fans to understand Suker more deeply. Even Oripe, an unknown figure mentioned by Suker, was approached by "France Football" to film a separate interview. .

These interviews will all go into Suker's documentary, dubbed 'Path of Honor'.

Of course, honors will continue to be included in the future.

Together with Suker, he won the fourth award, and Real Madrid also made rapid progress in the league.

From rounds 19 to 23, in a total of five rounds, Real Madrid achieved four wins and one tie.

That draw was fought by the opponent at Atletico Madrid's home court.

Atletico Madrid at least needs a draw, while Real Madrid is about to start the Champions League knockout round. In addition, some luck factors in the game led to Real Madrid's draw with Atletico Madrid away from home.

However, Real Madrid still maintains the top position in the league standings.

As for Suker, he scored six goals in five games.

In the 23rd round, Suker's goal count reached 37 goals.

As for Messi, he also reached the 23rd round, 35 goals.

The century goal battle between the two continues!

On this basis, the Champions League is about to hit.

On February 14, the entire Real Madrid team arrived in Moscow.

Their first game was against CSKA Moscow from Russia.

Many familiar people such as Vidic, Dujmovic, Suker.Baziqi have played for this team.

CSKA Moscow is not an easy opponent to deal with.

It is impossible for a team to break through the Champions League group stage without strength support.

Just like Dinamo Zagreb this season, although it survived the qualifiers with luck, it immediately showed its true colors after entering the group stage.

Six games, 0-1-5, they were sent home without winning a single game.

Now Dinamo Zagreb fans have a lot of opinions about this group of players.

After all, they have witnessed the glorious era of Suker and others, so they naturally have more expectations.

Losing to Real Madrid is understandable.

They didn't even expect to make it to the knockout stage, but they had to win a game anyway.

But the result was that they didn't win a single game!

However, this is also related to the fact that Dinamo Zagreb has too many young players, but if Kovacic and Brozovic are still in the club, they won't play so badly!

But the club is anxious to sell money, there is nothing it can do.

Now Dinamo Zagreb can only wait for the next flowering and fruition.

Under the same circumstances, CSKA Moscow's entry into the knockout stage has become different.

CSKA Moscow, this team has had a lot of ups and downs in the Champions League in recent years.

Either they don't enter the Champions League at all, or if they enter the Champions League, they will definitely be able to win the second place and enter the Champions League knockout stage.

Although most of them are eliminated in the first round of the knockout stage, there are also wonderful performances.

Russian teams are not considered weak teams in the whole of Europe, so Real Madrid also needs to be a little vigilant.

Of course, compared to these, what is more important is the bad competition environment.

On February 14, the plane that Real Madrid took landed at Moscow Airport.

As soon as they got off the plane and walked out of the airport, the Real Madrid players felt the coldness of Moscow in winter.

In Spain, where the four seasons are mild, they have never encountered such bad weather.

Although they also played with Dinamo Zagreb, it was only late autumn, and Croatia had not yet entered winter.

What's more, the weather in Moscow has been abnormal recently. The temperature has dropped since yesterday. The highest temperature during the day is only minus 18 degrees Celsius, not to mention that it may break minus 20 degrees Celsius at night.

The players of Real Madrid were so cold that they subconsciously tightened their buttocks.

They were wrapped in a layer of down jackets and hoods on their heads.

The strong wind swept through, bringing snowflakes all over the sky. In the biting cold wind, it was a little difficult to breathe.

"This, this. Hiss~~~Isn't this too cold?"

Marcelo was so cold that he jumped on the spot, trying to warm up his body in this way.

Other people with some experience, they all prepared warm suits.

For example, Suk and Srna, they wore a base layer inside, a thermal underwear, down pants and down vests, snow boots, gloves, scarves, and hats, which was very warm.

Unlike Bell in the crowd.

This fool, wearing a pair of sports breathable trousers, ordinary sports shoes, and a short down jacket, shrinking his neck, as if he wanted to shrink his body into the down jacket.

When the wind blew, he was so cold that he grimaced and his nose flowed down.

Suk rolled his eyes in anger.

He reminded Bell to wear more.

But this guy has no experience and said he is cold-resistant.

Obviously, this guy compared the winter in Wales with that in Russia.

Freeze to death, you fool!

Everyone arrived at the hotel by bus.

The weather was worse than expected.

And slowly snowflakes began to fall again. If the snowfall did not stop by tomorrow, then they might have to kick the snow globe.

Mourinho also felt a headache. This bad weather environment away from home was a big test for them.

He really wanted these players to go out for training and adapt to the weather, but he was afraid that the extreme weather would make the whole army annihilated.

Bale had started to have a runny nose and even coughed.

Even though he entered the hotel, he still curled up and shivered.

The team doctor hurried to check.

"Fever!"

The team doctor said helplessly.

Mourinho grinned.

Damn it, one was useless just after getting off the plane.

He should have been tougher at the time and let Bale wear more clothes, but who knows that this guy has no concept of extreme weather.

But it is understandable.

After all, Bale has played football in Wales or England since his debut.

Tottenham won't be able to play many Champions League games, so it's impossible for them to be exposed to these extreme weather conditions.

After all, I didn't think it through.

"Faria, you stay and take care of Bale, and the others will change their equipment and do the adaptation training!"

Mourinho sighed.

Bale wanted to persist, but was glared back by Mourinho.

Leaving Bale in the hotel, the others went to the training ground to warm up.

Warming up in the cold wind and snowy days should be more intense than usual to achieve sufficient results.

Moreover, after warming up, you must keep moving, otherwise the body will cool down quickly.

Throughout the training process, Real Madrid's players were extremely uncomfortable.

Although they also played football in the snow, it was too difficult to encounter minus 20 degrees weather.

Suker and Srna could barely accept it. This extreme weather is rare in Croatia, but they have experienced it and have some experience.

After a simple adaptation training, the players quickly returned to the locker room to keep warm.

When Suker was changing clothes, Marcelo beside him suddenly screamed.

"Ah~~~~~~It's over!!!——"

Suke was startled and turned his head to look over immediately.

Marcelo unzipped his pants and stared at his crotch, his face horrified and his voice trembling;

"It, it, it's getting smaller!"

"Ah?" Suke was stunned.

Marcelo was almost crying with fear, he pointed at his crotch; "It! It! It shrunk!"

Soon, others also screamed.

"OMG!!"

"Me too! It shrunk back!"

"It's over! My happiness is gone?"

"Oh my God! I shouldn't have come here!"

Looking at the chaos and extreme panic, Suke and Srna looked at each other and couldn't help sighing.

They could only explain to these guys what "cold shrinkage" in extreme cold weather is.

After calming these guys down and telling them that this is a normal physiological reaction, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"So it's like this!" Marcelo said with emotion; "Suke, you know so much!"

Suke looked disgusted; "You know a little more!"

Marcelo was a little embarrassed, but he was really scared at the time.

No one can stay calm when encountering this situation for the first time.

That's the root of life!

After returning to the hotel, the snow outside was getting heavier and heavier.

The snowflakes were falling, and snow removal vehicles were dispatched on the street, but looking at the snowing situation, it is estimated that it will not stop in a short time.

"It seems that we really have to kick the snow globe!" Suke shook his head.

The next day, there was still a little snow in the sky.

Although it was not as heavy as yesterday, the sky was still gray.

"Today's venue is a bit special, we all have to wear spiked boots." Mourinho began to explain some problems of playing football in the snow.

"Snowy days are different from rainy days. On rainy days, the ball will roll far when it hits the ground. But on snowy days, the ball will also have the same situation as on rainy days. However, due to the problem of snow piles, the possibility of changing direction is greater, so we cannot pursue accuracy!"

"If the snow pile becomes more, then completely abandon the ground pass and use the long pass method instead"

Mourinho is still very experienced. He knows how to play in the snow, and some of the details are also explained in detail.

Even people like Suker and Srna who are used to playing in the snow can't find fault.

So, Mourinho's professional knowledge can be trusted.

CSKA Arena.

This is the home stadium of CSKA Moscow, a stadium that can accommodate 30,000 fans.

Although it is snowy, it still does not reduce the enthusiasm of the fighting nation to watch the game.

The whole stadium was filled, not to mention the arrival of Real Madrid, which also attracted many non-local fans to arrive at the stadium.

Snow was still floating in the sky, and the fighting nation cheered enthusiastically in the face of snowflakes.

"Hurrah~~~~~~~"

"Fight!!!!!!——"

"Hurrah~~~Victory belongs to CSKA!!!"

"Bai Yeha!!!!!!——"

In the stadium, players from both sides are warming up.

Because it is extremely cold, the warm-up time needs to be slightly longer.

Huh~~

Suke exhaled, and the white mist drifted away.

The weather was similar to what he imagined. The cold body sensation was almost minus 20 degrees.

In this kind of weather, if the warm-up is not sufficient, the body will easily become stiff, and it will increase the risk of injury.

It is also necessary to be in an active state at all times to maintain the body's heat. Once it cools down, it will also be in a state of not warming up.

At this time, the warm-up session has ended, and the players from both sides returned to the locker room to make final preparations.

Bale is still having a fever, so he can't play in this game.

But fortunately, except Bale, the rest of the players are still in good health.

At this time, Mourinho can't ask for the problem of state. As long as there is no problem like Bale, he will be satisfied.

Soon, the players from both sides came to the player channel to prepare to play.

The cold wind blew along the corridor, and the Real Madrid players kept moving to keep their bodies warm to resist the cold.

They even ate some high-calorie food before the game to keep their bodies warm.

But even so, they still felt very cold and could only keep moving.

On the other hand, the Russian guys all stood with their hands on their hips, facing the cold wind with calm faces.

Suker couldn't help grinning.

This is the fucking home advantage!

The Russians are tough guys who can swim in winter in such extreme weather.

On the other hand, they were all grimacing with cold.

Soon, the players from both sides entered the field.

The starting lineup is as follows:

CSKA Moscow (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Chepchugov.

Defenders: Shchenkov, Alexei, Ignashevich, Vasily.

Real Madrid (4-4-2):
