Chang Sheng would not let it go. After returning to Italy, he continued to criticize FIFA on his personal website. He criticized FIFA's actions for tarnishing the highest honor of the Ballon d'Or, which is an insult to football.
!
His words were very strong, and he accused FIFA of manipulating the selection results.
Such accusations are very serious. If you just say that without evidence, you will definitely be despised.
But Chang Sheng still did it, so does he have evidence?
He is not the coach of the national team, but it does not mean that he does not know the coach of the national team.
Just the day after this incident, Gao Hongbo, who was preparing for the Asian Cup in Qatar, also accepted an interview with reporters. When talking about the results of the Golden Globe Awards, he said that he had not seen the votes at all, so the votes were
He had no idea who it was specifically written on.
"But if I had to choose, I would definitely choose David Silva." Gao Hongbo said. "Because he was the best and most stable player last year, he deserves this award...
…I feel sorry for David Silva. He missed such a good opportunity. You must know that this is the first personal honor award after he overcame the injury in his eyes. I think he must be very eager to win this
Award, because for him, it is recognition and encouragement..."
Gao Hongbo said that he was voted in without even seeing the ballot. At first, it was only circulated among the Chinese media, but soon the Spanish media, Valencia’s Provincial Newspaper, reprinted this report.
, only then did the whole of Europe know that there was such a thing.
Gao Hongbo's words made the media realize that maybe there is really some secret operation?
They started to dig deeper into the matter.
The media always like to go against these authorities. They will violate what the authority affirms, and they will follow what the authority denies.
But this time, their characteristic helped Chang Sheng.
In the beginning, Chang Sheng was just shouting alone. After all, the number of people he could influence was limited.
But when the head coach of the Chinese national team, Gao Hongbo, made it clear that he had never seen the votes, the media began to intervene, which had social influence.
And this influence is what FIFA least wants to see.
More people are beginning to think and reflect—could the bizarre results of this Golden Globe Awards really be man-made?
※ ※ ※
After the media's digging, everyone knows who the Chinese national team coach Gao Hongbo's three spots on the ballot are.
The first one he chose was Messi, the second was Xavi, and the third was...Diego Forlan!
David Silva is not even in Gao Hongbo's selection range at all.
But he said in an interview that if he had chosen himself, the number one choice would definitely be David Silva.
This seems to further prove that he has indeed never seen this ballot. As for who filled out this ballot for him...that is really a mystery. No one is stupid enough to come forward and express their opinions.
It's the substitute.
However, the national team coach has never seen the ballot filled out for the national team coach. In any case, FIFA cannot escape the blame.
Even if FIFA does not operate in a black box, it shows that their management work is in chaos.
But it's not just that simple.
After Gao Hongbo's voting results came out, the voting results of Chinese national team captain Du Wei were also exposed. In the selection of the Golden Globe Award, his choice was exactly the same as Gao Hongbo's. The first place was Messi. The second place was
Xavi, third place is Diego Forlan.
Iniesta and David Silva were not considered by him at all.
It's just a coincidence that the two people's choices for the Golden Globe Awards were exactly the same.
But the better part is yet to come.
In the selection of the best coach, Gao Hongbo's choice was exactly the same as Du Wei's!
Gao Hongbo chose all national team coaches. The first place was Spain national team coach Vicente del Bosque, the second place was Germany national team coach Loew, and the third place was Uruguay coach Tavares.
Du Wei's is exactly the same as him.
When Gao Hongbo said that he had not seen the Ballon d'Or votes, some people might think that he was lying to help Chang Sheng, because everyone knew about his relationship with Chang Sheng, and he would definitely support Chang Sheng.
Now when the coaches' votes came out, everyone was convinced that Gao Hongbo really had not seen the votes.
If he filled out these ballots himself, how could he put Del Bosque's name in the first option for best coach?
Based on his relationship with Chang Sheng, he would definitely fill in Chang Sheng's name.
Although there are rules for choosing the Ballon d'Or that voters cannot choose players from their own country.
But there are no such restrictions on choosing the best coach.
Gao Hongbo can definitely be chosen to win.
But he didn't choose.
What does this mean?
Based on the relationship between him and Chang Sheng, even if he doesn't put Chang Sheng first, he will definitely put him second, at least in the top three.
But he didn't do this. Among the three quotas, there was no winning name.
This proves what he said before, that he has really never seen a ballot, and all his ballots were filled out for him by others!

More European media are beginning to pay attention to the voting results of the Chinese team's coaches and captains. This seems to be an attempt to dismantle FIFA and embarrass Messi.
The media even began to hype up Messi's award, which caused divisions and internal strife within the Barcelona team. Xavi and Iniesta were quite dissatisfied with Messi's award.
At this time, Messi's teammates stood up to support Messi.
Xavi, who was not selected in the top three list, first congratulated his teammate Messi: "I don't feel disappointed at all, because the glory belongs to the Basala Masia Youth Training Camp. Anyone who wins the award will be surprised, I want to congratulate him
Messi. This award is given to La Masia and Barcelona football philosophy, we just have to enjoy this moment. Will I win it next year? Let’s see. My life will not change in any way because of the Ballon d’Or.
I will continue to have the same passion for football. The Ballon d'Or remains in the Barcelona family. There is no problem for me."
Iniesta, who has always been low-key, was concise and concise: "If people vote for Messi, it is because he deserves it, and it is because he is right to win."
These two people stood up to support Messi, naturally to show everyone that they are not unhappy with Messi because of a Ballon d'Or award, and there is no division or internal strife within Barcelona.
But whether they really have no regrets...that's hard to say.

The media did not give up the pursuit of the truth, and they continued to dig out the inside story.
Soon afterwards, the media broke the news. Guatemala’s captain Stavo Cabrera revealed that he voted for Spain and Lazio’s core player David Silva as his third choice, but in the end, FIFA announced
In the voting statistics, his third choice actually read "Xavi Alonso"!
In addition to Gao Hongbo, others also came forward to prove that there was something wrong with their votes.
This further strengthens the speculation that there is something fishy about Messi winning the award.
Now perhaps it is no longer a guess, but a fact.
FIFA’s various shady and behind-the-scenes operations are nothing new.
No one would be surprised if this happened during the Golden Globe Awards selection.
Faced with doubts and criticism from the media and Chang Sheng, FIFA has remained silent until now.
It wasn't until the evidence of Gao Hongbo and Stavo Cabrera came out that they finally couldn't sit still.
Their spokesperson responded to the media's questions.
"There is no shady story in this selection. It is clean. We admit that we may have made some mistakes in some mitigations. But this is just an accident. Such an accident is not enough to lead to a reversal of the results. We congratulate Messi
.Congratulations also to David Silva and Iniesta, they are both very good players... No matter who wins the award, it is a victory for football."
Chang Sheng unceremoniously commented on his personal website after the spokesperson's speech: "Where is this a victory for football? This is a victory for FIFA! Let us applaud the shameless FIFA, they
It successfully proves that as long as they want to praise whomever they want, they can definitely succeed!"
Naturally, his words were quickly spread by the media, with the title: "Chang Buyi will continue to criticize FIFA for its shady secrets!"
His remarks are bound to anger FIFA.
But at this time, people will naturally stand up to support him.
This person is... UEFA President Platini!
The "godfather" who always wins...
Just when this matter was intensifying, Platini, in his official capacity as UEFA, stated that in order to commend the players with the best performance in Europe, he was ready to resume the European Golden Ball selection again, which would be different from the FIFA Ballon d'Or Award and different from the FIFA Ballon d'Or Award.
The spirit of the European Ballon d'Or awarded previously hosted by the French magazine "France Football" is the same, making the Ballon d'Or winner more authoritative.
"UEFA will consider setting up an award to reward the best players in Europe." UEFA President Platini said in an interview with "Gazzetta dello Sport", "This can continue the Ballon d'Or award of "France Football"
Spirit, now that this award has been infiltrated by FIFA's World Player of the Year, there is actually no need for it."
His words expressed his support for Chang Sheng.
Because he was also dissatisfied with the results of this selection.
To put it bluntly, Messi is an Argentina international and can be considered a member of South American Football Confederation, while David Silva is a Spanish international and a truly popular member of UEFA.
Of course he wants to protect his own people and cannot cheer for Messi.
Moreover, no matter how Chang Sheng loses, it is always the head coach he likes. Now that the head coach he likes has been wronged, he will naturally support Chang Sheng.
But the most important thing is the consideration of political purposes.
Platini was originally dissatisfied with FIFA's involvement in the selection of the European Ballon d'Or. In his view, this was a symbol of FIFA's involvement in UEFA.
He was very dissatisfied with this, but it was a pity that the European Ballon d'Or was not sponsored by UEFA, but by "France Football" magazine, and UEFA had no control over it.
No matter how unhappy he was, he could only watch from the side.
But who would have thought that this was only the first time that FIFA and "France Football" co-sponsored the Ballon d'Or Awards, and there would be such a big mistake. David Silva, who was generally optimistic before, was rejected by Messi.
West was defeated.
Why is Messi?
Just sixty goals a year?
joke!
When did the Golden Globes become the “Golden Boots”?
※ ※ ※
As soon as Platini made a move, everyone knew that it was definitely a grievance between Chang Sheng and David Silva.
Talented Chinese netizens cannot help but sigh: "What a father's love is like a mountain!"
After being hacked by FIFA, UEFA must get Chang Sheng's intestines back, even if it means setting up a new award for this, no matter what!
Platini's true love for Chang Sheng...
And looking at this trend, FIFA did not give David Silva the Ballon d'Or, and it is very likely that UEFA will give it to him!
The winner of this first UEFA Ballon d'Or is very likely to be David Silva!
No wonder some people say that Platini's love for Chang Sheng is true...
This level of support is truly unprecedented. Even Guardiola has never been so supportive.
