During the performance of the Zurich Ballet, the annual FIFA Awards Ceremony was held as scheduled.
The earliest award awarded was the Fair Play Award, and the winner was the city of Iquitos, Peru, which hosted this year's U17 World Youth Championship.
The Interactive Game World Footballer of the Year was awarded to Ballard, who just won the second FIFA Interactive Game World Cup in London yesterday.
The President's Special Award was awarded to former Swedish referee Frisk. Because he officiated Chelsea's game in the Champions League, Mourinho accused him of illegally touching the opponent's head coach during halftime. This made Frisk
Skiff was made things difficult by the British media and angrily announced his retirement.
FIFA awarded this award to Frisk, which somewhat meant to slap Mourinho in the face.
This year's Most Improved Award was awarded to the Ghana team, while the Best Team was awarded to the Brazilian team.
It is worth mentioning that Brazil has won the best team for four consecutive years, which also makes everyone look forward to the performance of the Brazilian team in the World Cup in Germany next year, thinking that the Selecao is likely to defend the World Cup.
Su Dong also heard others saying more than once that Ronaldinho would take advantage of Germany's World Cup victory to counterattack and overpower Su Dong and become Barcelona's number one superstar.
He doesn't know if Ronaldinho has this intention, but he doesn't mind that after the Brazilian wins the World Cup, he wins the World Footballer and the Ballon d'Or to compete with him.
He believed that he could win the competition between the two in the first place, and he could do the same in the future.
Miss World Football was awarded to Germany's Prinz. She won the award for the third consecutive year and can be said to be a superstar in women's football.
…
When FIFA President Sepp Blatter slowly appeared on the podium, there was a burst of warm applause.
Everyone knows that the highlight of this awards ceremony is about to be announced.
Although there was not much suspense in the first place, no one was sure about it until they saw the final ranking.
What if FIFA gets a brain cramp?
Blatter first introduced the three candidates for the top three through a video on the big screen. They were all their wonderful games in the past season. Then, amidst the warm applause of the audience, Blatter named the three candidates.
All candidates were invited to the podium.
Before the awards were finally announced, all three people gave some speeches of their own.
In his speech, Su Dong said that he is a very lucky person. Throughout his career, he has met many different people who have given him a lot of help, especially his family and his personal coaching team.
Recently, Xavi's serious injury has greatly stimulated Su Dong, especially such a serious injury that has caused him to be sidelined for more than half a year. He may not be able to regain his form after his comeback. Su Dong is particularly grateful to his personal coach for this.
team.
Although the salary is high, there are some things that money really can't buy.
Such as health.
This is even more true for professional players.
Since he was asked about the national team by the media in the afternoon, Su Dong was quite touched, so he also specially thanked the Chinese fans. In the end, he even emphasized that he wanted to thank the two votes from the Chinese national team.
This also made everyone present feel his helplessness and sadness.
According to FIFA's selection regulations, the selection of World Footballer is voted by the head coach and captain of each country's national team. Each person can choose three players, but they cannot choose players from the national team they coach or play for.
For example, Scolari, who coaches the Portuguese national team, can choose Ronaldinho, but he cannot choose Cristiano Ronaldo.
But Su Dong's situation is a bit special. He is a Chinese player but has not participated in the national team.
Therefore, a few days ago, when the head coach and captain of the Chinese national team won the Golden Globe Award in Sudong, when questioned by domestic media reporters, they both admitted that they voted for Sudong as the first choice in their votes.
They voted after consulting relevant personnel from FIFA and confirming that it was possible to vote this way.
This is their support for Su Dong, but it is also a crazy slap in the face to some people.
How ridiculous and ironic it is that a person who is about to win the double Footballer of the Year award for the second time is not worthy enough to enter the national team!
The domestic media and fans are very angry and dissatisfied, and public opinion has once again heatedly discussed this matter.
Although these two votes from the Chinese national team are not decisive.
…
After Blatter introduced the three candidates, the final seats of the three were quickly displayed on the big screen behind him.
Blatter also announced loudly, "The winner of the 2005 World Footballer is...Su Dong!!!"
The entire Zurich Opera House burst into extremely warm applause, and many people even stood up excitedly to applaud and cheer for Su Dong.
Su Dong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and hugged his club teammate Ronaldinho, then shook hands with Lampard with a smile and accepted their congratulations.
Then, he slowly walked up to Blatter, took the World Footballer trophy from the hands of the FIFA president, and held it high to accept the cheers and applause of everyone present.
But at this moment, a question suddenly appeared in his mind.
Is this World Footballer's gold medal pure gold?
It feels quite heavy!
In 1991, the World Footballer Award was just founded. In order to distinguish it from the long-standing Golden Globe Award, Matthäus was not awarded a trophy, but a silver medal plate.
A year later, after redesign, the award plate became a football supported by three brackets. According to different materials, it was divided into gold, silver and copper colors, corresponding to the top three football players in the world.
From 1998 to 2000, the trophy was redesigned into a rectangular crystal with a wooden base. This looked really shabby, so starting from 2001, it was redesigned into a semi-arched cuboid with a painted
It shows the longitude and latitude of the earth, with a crystal football embedded in the middle.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The two World Footballers that Su Dong got are the latest models, but he is a little confused, is this cuboid made of pure gold?
With FIFA's stingy temperament, he really doubted whether it was electroplated.
If the paint peels off after being stored for a long time, how can I fix it?
Fortunately, Su Dong suppressed his laughter and did not lose his composure on the spot.
When he delivered a speech later, he specially thanked his teammates at the club, his relatives and friends, and the personal coaching team. He promised that he would continue to work hard.
“I look forward to being here again next year!”
After finishing speaking, Su Dong raised the trophy in his hand high again amidst the cheers from the sky.
…
As the last bit of suspense was revealed, everyone found that it was not unexpected.
Media reporters obviously felt that this result was not surprising.
As early as last season's Champions League final, basically everyone believed that Su Dong would win the award. In fact, he did win all the individual awards this year. No matter which media is making the evaluation, it is impossible for Su Dong to be absent.
Does that mean Su Dongzhen has won everyone's approval?
FIFA immediately announced the latest World Footballer voting results on site and on its official website.
Without any suspense, Su Dong scored an astonishing 1,000 points, defeated Ronaldinho and Lampard with a crushing advantage, and won the World Footballer of the Year award.
But this is still not enough to prove the authority of Su Dong's award.
In FIFA's World Player of the Year selection, many votes are not authoritative enough, so the media and fans pay special attention to the voting results of the head coaches and captains of the world's top teams, believing that this truly represents authority.
If last year, Su Dong's award was somewhat controversial, then this year, all the head coaches and captains of world football powers including Italy, England, France, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, Portugal, Argentina and Brazil all considered it
The first vote went to Su Dong.
This allowed him to win this year's World Footballer of the Year with almost no suspense and no controversy.
…………

Won double Footballer of the Year for two consecutive years!
