Football: The strongest post-zero generation

Liverpool has a League Cup third round match before visiting Stamford Bridge. The opponent is Preston. Due to the limited strength of the opponent, Klopp plans to use youth team players and substitute players to give the main players enough time to recuperate. , prepare for the strong dialogue at the weekend.

On the afternoon before the third round of the 2018-2019 English League Cup, Liverpool coach Klopp and a number of players took a train to London as planned to attend FIFA's annual awards ceremony at the Royal Festival Hall.

As in the past, the awards are Team of the Year, Goal of the Year, Women's Coach of the Year, Men's Coach of the Year, Goalkeeper of the Year, Women's Footballer of the Year and Men's Footballer of the Year, as well. They are Miss World Footballer and World Player of the Year.

The FIFA annual awards ceremony has attracted the attention of media and fans around the world, but this year's awards ceremony may be slightly less star-studded than last year. According to insiders, Messi and Ronaldo, who were shortlisted for the best team of the year, There is a strong possibility that he will not attend the annual awards ceremony at the Pallas Theater.

It is worth mentioning that some media pointed out that the reason why Ronaldo and Messi did not attend the annual awards ceremony was that they were not shortlisted for the final three candidates. Therefore, many fans and media believe that Ronaldo and Messi disrespect FIFA and world football. , especially Ronaldo, is the target of public criticism.

Cristiano Ronaldo also did not attend the Champions League awards ceremony held in Monaco at the end of last month. Although Cristiano Ronaldo himself did not declare the specific reason, many media and fans speculated that Cristiano Ronaldo believed that the best player in the Champions League was 100% Li Qing and did not attend. Ceremony, according to BEIN-SPORTS reporters, UEFA postponed the party for six minutes in order to wait for Ronaldo to arrive...

If it was understandable that he did not attend the Champions League awards ceremony for the first time, then it cannot be excused for not attending the most influential annual awards ceremony in international football for the second consecutive time.

Li Qing is indeed the best player in 2018. There is no doubt that whether it is personal performance or team glory, he is the best in the world. Neither Ronaldo nor Messi can compare with him, even for personal reasons. Even if you are unable to attend, you have to sort out the order of events.

As the annual awards ceremony gets closer, people who claim to be close to Ronaldo and Messi have posted messages on INS, Twitter and Facebook, saying that Ronaldo's absence is due to the injustice of FIFA.

Ambrosio, the Brazilian columnist of the famous football website Goal.com, published a signed article pointing out that FIFA's practices have hurt the Portuguese and Argentinian superstars. Cristiano Ronaldo's performance in the 2017-2018 season was very eye-catching. At the club level, Real Madrid entered the Champions League. The biggest contributor in the final, he also performed well at the national team level, scoring four goals and leading Portugal to the top 16.

Messi's performance in the 2018 World Cup was indeed not good enough, but he ultimately led Barcelona to win the league championship and the Copa del Rey. The final three candidates following Li Qing were Modric and Griezmann.

What glory does Modric have?

Champions League runner-up and World Cup fourth place, can this kind of glory be comparable to Messi or Ronaldo?

Modric and Ronaldo are club teammates, and they cancel each other out at the club level. The only thing Modric is better than Ronaldo is that he advanced to the World Cup semi-finals with the national team, but Croatia's advancement to the semi-finals is not Modric's personal credit, it is Credit to the entire team.

Modric is not much better than Ronaldo, and even worse than Messi. After all, Messi won the league championship and the Copa del Rey in the 2017-2018 season.

The only championship honor Griezmann can win is the Europa League, but the Europa League is an honor that no wealthy team can look down on.

World Cup runner-up?

Compared with Griezmann, many media and fans believe that the young player Mbappe's performance is more eye-catching.

According to the official statement of most media, FIFA burned bridges after realizing that Li Qing was the new king of the green. In order to promote Li Qing, it expelled Ronaldo and Messi, who were over 30 years old, the two former stars of the green.

Perhaps Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi can't compare with Li Qing's slimming, but they can at least replace Modric and Griezmann as the final three candidates.

Therefore, it is understandable that more and more media and fans, Ronaldo and Messi, are protesting FIFA's actions in this way.

This is the truth, but Li Qing's view is very different.

FIFA has indeed done something wrong in this regard, but if you refuse to participate in this annual event, is it too disrespectful to this handsome guy?

At any rate, this is the first time this handsome guy has come closest to being named World Footballer!

Of course, this statement is not absolute. The media only speculated that Ronaldo and Messi would protest in this way. Whether they will ultimately be absent will not be revealed until the annual awards ceremony begins.

A FIFA spokesperson posted an INS at about 4 p.m. Although he did not name anyone, media and fans who read the content knew that it was aimed at Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, who have been in the spotlight recently.

Closer to home, Klopp, Li Qing, Alexander-Arnold, Henderson, Van Dijk and other Liverpool players took the Rolls-Royce rented by FIFA from their temporary hotel to the gate of the Pallas Theater at 5pm. The waiting reporters pressed the shutter in their hands one after another, and the "click" sound accompanied by the continuous flashes sounded like daylight.

Li Qing is the biggest candidate for World Footballer, and Klopp is the candidate for Men's Football Coach of the Year, receiving the most special attention.

After getting out of the car, several people stepped on the red carpet and entered the Royal Festival Hall.

Li Qing met many world football celebrities at the door, including Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Ballack, Lampard and others. Li Qing was the best player this year. The celebrities all pulled him to greet him and talk about daily life. Li Qing, who gradually adapted to this kind of life because of his career, had a lot of fun chatting with celebrities, and it was so late to meet them.

After a while, Griezmann, Mbappe, Modric, Ramos, Kante, Courtois and other players came to the Palas Opera House, and the lineup for the FIFA Annual Awards Ceremony gradually changed. The stars should shine brightly.

Time passed quickly. At 6pm local time in Great Britain, the 2018 FIFA Annual Awards Ceremony was announced. Messi and Ronaldo, who had attracted much attention, still did not appear at the Royal Festival Hall.

As a result, the world's major media have launched a wave of criticism on social platforms such as INS, Twitter, Facebook and WeChat, targeting the two top players in world football in the past.

At this time, Li Qing gradually understood the protests of Messi and Ronaldo. Although he was still a little unhappy, as public figures and green superstars, Ronaldo and Messi could not openly express injustice to FIFA, so they only Being able to 'come back' through this absence.

China Channel 5 connected to the live signal of the Royal Festival Hall. The commentator He Wei sighed: "According to the reports sent back by the on-site reporters, Ronaldo and Messi, who had been attracting much attention before, did not appear at the scene. We do not know the specific reasons for their absence. Obviously, this is a big loss for world football, and the absence of the two superstars will inevitably cause the star-studded scene to be slightly dimmed."
