Football: The strongest post-zero generation

The 2018 FIFA Annual Awards Ceremony kicked off on time at the Royal Festival Hall in London. The absence of Ronaldo and Messi at the same time certainly made the FIFA annual feast lack a star flavor, but it will not affect the progress of the annual awards ceremony.

The host is the famous movie star Patrick Stewart, who has filmed the Star Trek movie series. Before the start of the annual best awards ceremony, the big screen reviewed the important moments of the Russian World Cup that ended two months ago.

The first selection item that appeared was the best team of the year. The formation was 433. What was surprising was that the goalkeeper of the best team was De Gea from Manchester United. The results were just announced, and many goalkeepers had expressions on their face.

Not to mention that Manchester United's performance in the 2017-2018 season was unsatisfactory, De Gea's performance in the World Cup was also below par. Commentator He Wei frowned and said: "Presumably, this choice is very controversial!"

There is no controversy about the defenders, Marcelo, Van Dijk, Ramos and Arnold, the midfielders are Henderson, Wijnaldum and Modric, and the forwards are Messi, Ronaldo and Li Qing.

The eleven-man roster for the best team of the year was all out. Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun said with a smile: "Griezmann was shortlisted for the three finalists for World Footballer but was not selected for the best team of the year. It is really a bit confusing. No idea."

By implication, this is a major controversy at the annual awards ceremony, even greater than De Gea being selected as the goalkeeper of the year.

In addition, France, as the runner-up in the World Cup in Russia, did not have a single player shortlisted, which has to be surprising.

In the words of Tianchao 5 commentator He Wei, there have been a lot of controversies at the FIFA annual awards ceremony in the past years, but this year's controversy is relatively large.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, who transferred from Real Madrid to Juventus for 100 million euros this summer, did not come to the Royal Festival Hall. What is interesting is that the best team on stage to receive the award was led by two former teammates, Marcelo represented C Luo received the award, while Alves received the award on behalf of Messi.

The second grand prize is the Puskas Award, which is the best goal of the year. The goals shortlisted for the top three are all occupied by Li Qing. After playing the three wonderful goals, He Wei, the commentator of China 5 Channel, joked: " Judging from Li Qing’s scoring efficiency and quality, there will be more best goals in the future. I personally think this award can be renamed the Li Qing Award!”

Guest commentator Xu Yang laughed and said: "This suggestion can indeed be applied to FIFA. Every goal Li Qing scores is full of fun to watch. Many of his goals this year are world-class. To save trouble, it is indeed possible, haha..."

Of course, this possibility is unlikely to become a reality unless... Li Qing retires.

The final winner was Li Qing's goal in the 2018 World Cup in Russia, which passed five Argentine defenders. It also made those England fans sitting in front of the TV proud.

Under thunderous applause from all the guests, Li Qing strolled up to the podium, took the trophy symbolizing the best goal of the year from Ballack, and said with a half-smile: "I won't say anything about my acceptance speech. , I believe I will have the opportunity to take the stage later, and then... I will finish it all at once, okay?"

"papappapappa——"

As thunderous applause rang out again, Li Qing walked off the podium with a smile.

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei laughed and said: "This perverted little guy is really humorous. In addition to being shortlisted for the best team of the year and best goal of the year, he was also shortlisted for the best male football player of the year. His competitor is Modly. Qi and Griezmann, based on Li Qing’s super performance in 2018, I believe...no one can snatch the World Footballer from him..."

With He Wei's eloquent talk, the awards ceremony progressed to the Best Women's Football Coach of the Year.

The shortlisted coaches are Lyon Women's Football Team Pedros, Sun Country Women's Football Coach Takakura Asako and Dutch Women's Football Coach Wegmann. Pedros, who led the Lyon Women's Football Team to win the league championship and the Champions League without a major competition year, was elected. .

Pedros, who received the award, made some acceptance speeches, and the broadcast screen could not wait to show it to Klopp, Deschamps and Southgate.

In fact, when the final candidate list comes out, Deschamps will basically miss out on the best men's football coach of the year. Klopp coached Liverpool to win all the championships in the 2017-2018 season. It feels like all football club coaches, so his opponents are leaders of different teams. England and France are World Cup finalists Southgate and Didier Deschamps.

It is precisely because of this that Deschamps basically means he is out.

The champion is England, and Deschamps, who is also shortlisted for the best, is the head coach of France. As the loser, he is definitely not as good as the winner's coach. Therefore, before the award ceremony, countless media and fans were confused as to who should be the best man of the year. The football coach awarded it to whom.

According to convention, Southgate, who led England to win the World Cup in the big year, should be elected as the youngest men's football coach of the year. However, Klopp led Liverpool in 2018 to tie Barcelona's record of six championships in the year set in 2009, which is enough to match the leader. Southgate, England's World Cup winner, is on par.

If we look at the difficulty of winning the championship, it is obvious that Liverpool has a higher chance of winning. First of all, there are only seven games in the World Cup, while Liverpool took more than 50 games to win various championships in the 2018-2019 season, and the degree of losing the championship is higher. .

A media reporter interviewed Li Qing and asked him who was the best men's football coach this year. Li Qing smiled and said: "Both of them are the best in my mind."

I don’t know if Li Qing’s words hit the mark, but Southgate and Klopp were actually elected as the Men’s Football Coach of the Year announced by host Patrick Stewart at the same time.

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei exclaimed: "The 2018 Best of the Year Award Ceremony is really surprising. If I remember correctly, this is the first time in FIFA's history that two head coaches have been elected as the Best of the Year at the same time. Best head coach.”

"The championships won by Klopp and Southgate in the past 2018 are extremely valuable and world-class. Giving up anyone is a loss. This must be the best way for FIFA to take it."

Guest commentator Xu Yang said solemnly.

The Best Goalkeeper is a newly established award in 2017. This award is somewhat controversial and was elected by Thibaut Courtois, who moved to Real Madrid at the buzzer this year.

The best women's player of the year is led by Brazilian veteran Marta, who has been shortlisted for 12 times, and she finally won the sixth Miss Football trophy in her career.

The five personal awards of the year were finally settled, and the broadcast screen naturally showed Li Qing getting dressed.

After a series of preparations by the host Stewart, the presenter FIFA President Infantino brought two silver trophies to the podium. The entire Royal Festival Hall immediately became quiet, and Infantino stood in front of the speaking platform. Looking at Li Qing, he smiled and said: "I know this year's Best of the Year Award Ceremony is very controversial, but...this award is absolutely not controversial, right?"

"Yes, sir!"

All the guests said in unison.

"Men's Player of the Year 2018 -"

The atmosphere at the scene was detonated by Infantino. When the momentum dropped slightly, he said loudly: "Li——Qing——"

The spotlight instantly covered Li Qing. He stood up with a smile under the gaze of hundreds of millions of fans, hugged and greeted his teammates, competitors Griezmann, Modric and coach Klopp, and then walked calmly and calmly. On the podium, the small universe in my heart began to explode at this moment.
