Accompanied by George, Ronaldo arrived at the French Football headquarters in Paris before noon on December 8 to prepare for the European Golden Globes ceremony scheduled to be held later that day!

In order to ensure the mystery of the Golden Ball Awards as much as possible, it is difficult for people to guess the real winner before the answer is revealed. For example, this time, French Football sent photographers to London and Barcelona in advance, and also took "photos of the new issue of magazine cover and inner page posters" for three players shortlisted for Ronaldo, so as to avoid people predicting the final ownership of the European Golden Ball Awards by tracking the photographers' movements!

According to previous practice, "French Football" will take photos of the new European Golden Globe winner in advance as the cover of the latest magazine. In the previous European Golden Globe selections, many media judged in this way which of the three candidate players was. Therefore, "French Football" will come up with such a move this time so that the outside world cannot judge the truth!

However, although this approach in "French Football" guarantees the mystery of the Golden Globes, it also makes Ronaldo and others happy. You know, when he saw the photographer of "French Football" come to London and said he wanted to take a set of photos for himself, Ronaldo really thought that the Golden Globes was already his possession!

So, when Ronaldo learned from the photographer that they would go to Chelsea to take photos of Lampard next, and there was another team to go to Barcelona, ​​he could naturally imagine the loss in his heart that was so happy!

Although I can understand the difficulties of "French Football" doing this, emotionally, Ronaldo is still a little resentful about this, believing that "French Football"'s approach is really unnecessary. With the current publishing technology and logistics level, as long as the corresponding page is reserved in advance, even taking photos the day before the magazine is published, it will not delay the normal publication progress. Why do you have to take photos and typesetting many days in advance, and you have to try your best to hide it?

Of course, no matter how much Ronaldo complains, he will not be able to turn these photographers out, nor will he refuse to go to Paris to receive the award. If he does so, it will not only not have any positive effects, but will only have an irreversible negative impact on his image. With Ronaldo's wisdom and emotional intelligence, he naturally cannot make such a low-level mistake. Not to mention, in the face of the European Golden Globe Awards, which symbolizes the highest personal honor of football players, who can resist this temptation?

In this way, it was five o'clock in the evening, and the 2005 European Golden Globe Awards ceremony officially kicked off at this moment!

The first person to receive the award on stage was Chelsea's vice captain, Frank Lampard, known as the "magic lamp". Although the host's voice was extremely excited and he tried his best to stir up the atmosphere on the scene. Lampard himself smiled when he came on stage to receive the award, but from the slightly stiff expression and lost eyes of the "magic lamp", he was still quite frustrated that he only won one bronze ball award this time.

This is no wonder. You should know that the three-person shortlist for the final European Golden Globe Awards is not enough to have top personal abilities. Team performance, players' performance in this year, especially their performance in tough battles, and their status in the clubs they play for, and even the players' competitive status in the period before the announcement of the Golden Globe Awards will have a considerable impact on the selection results!

For example, Vieri. The personal ability of this former world's number one strong center is undoubtedly, but after so many years, Vieri has not been shortlisted for this three-person shortlist once!

Even Vieri ended up in this ending, and it was so difficult to be shortlisted for the final shortlist!

Therefore, Lampard naturally cherishes his shortlist this time, and he performed very hard in the club and national team, hoping to defeat Ronaldo and Ronaldo. However, the current situation of Chelsea being overwhelmed by Tottenham in the league, and Tottenham Hotsea won the Champions League and the FA Cup double championship last season, and the fact that the referee was the runner-up in the league, Lampard's efforts were quite discounted.

In fact, if AC Milan hadn’t lost in the Champions League final, Lampard would not have had a chance. You should know that even in non-major competition years, the European Golden Ball Awards would often pay more attention to the players’ performance in the European arena, and their performance in the league is more like a supplement based on this, and its importance is far less than that of European competitions!

After all, even in the five major leagues, there are certain differences in overall level between them. To put it bluntly, does anyone think it is the same difficulty to win the runner-up in the Bundesliga and the runner-up in the Premier League?

Following Lampard on stage to receive the silver ball award was Brazilian star Ronaldinho. The Barcelona star obviously did not expect that he would lose to Ronaldo in the Golden Ball selection, so when receiving the award, the iconic smile of "Bunny Bunny" also faded a lot!

The reason why Ronaldo in his previous life was able to win the European Golden Ball Award when Barcelona stopped in the quarterfinals of the Champions League was mainly because Gerald was dragged down by Liverpool's poor record, and Chelsea where Lampard is located is disgusting because of his unruly relationship. In addition, Ronaldo himself led Barcelona to defeat Real Madrid in the Spanish national derby. The situation is completely different now. Although Ronaldo is not the absolute core and number one star of Tottenham, the results achieved by Tottenham this year are by no means comparable to Barcelona. Ronaldo also helped Tottenham win the Champions League championship and defeated Chelsea in a strong dialogue. These factors combined together and fell into the eyes of the judges, it is a very debatable thing to be with Ronaldo or Ronaldo!

With Lampard and Ronaldo coming to the stage one after another, the final result of this selection is naturally coming out - Cristiano Ronaldo, a young winger from Tottenham Hotspur, became the winner of the 2005 European Golden Ball Award!

The 20-year-old European Golden Globe winner! Ronaldo broke the record set by Ronaldo in 1997 and became the youngest European Golden Globe winner since 1956!

Ronaldo's award is announcing the beginning of the era of post-70s players. Post-80s players have officially stepped on the stage and will become the mainstream force in international football!

The Yangtze River pushes the old waves, and the new people replace the old people. In this world, no one can escape the erosion of time. Therefore, even without Ronaldo and Ronaldo, the post-70s generation will eventually grow old. The era of new generation players will come sooner or later!
