The biggest fanatic in football

Chapter 496 Messi: I’ll congratulate you on horseback!

After sweeping Arsenal 8:1, Conte gave the main players a day off, and Lee Poirot was no exception.

Kong Erluzi's intention is very obvious. In the next FA Cup game, he will use a rotating lineup.

Everyone agreed with the head coach's arrangement.

On the one hand, the weather in England was extremely bad during the devilish schedule in December. Almost every game was rainy and snowy. Although a moderate rotation was carried out, the fatigue of most people still increased exponentially.

On the other hand, those substitute players have been waiting for the opportunity to play, and moderate rotation will also keep the team in a healthy atmosphere of competition.

What's more, as the first opponent in the FA Cup this season, Norwich from the English Championship can only be regarded as a big gift package. Their style of play is not a tough and tenacious type, which is not enough for Chelsea.

threaten.

This is also true. Chelsea, with Remy, Willian, and Pedro as forwards, after a trial in the first half, quickly gained an advantage in the second half, and finally relied on the goals of Pedro and Golovin.

Easily defeated the "Canaries" 2:0 in the away game.

As a nuclear deterrent, Lee Polo did not even enter the bench in this game.

Conte’s reasons are very good:

"Tomorrow you are going to attend FIFA's annual general meeting. Hurry up and prepare your speech!"

-

January 7, 7:30 in the evening.

The London Pamela Theater (also translated as the Patron Saint Theater), located in the West End of London, has been crowded with media from all directions. The nearly 100-meter red carpet is packed with football bigwigs.

Including Maradona, Ronaldo, Gullit, Zidane, Torres, Seedorf, Schmeichel, Totti, Maldini, Cannavaro, Kahn, Diego Forlan, Nakata

Dozens of football legends, including Hidetoshi and Desailly, attended the event together, adding countless stars to this annual event.

In addition, Ferguson, Wenger, Conte, Mourinho, Guardiola, Ranieri, Ancelotti, Benitez, Allegri, Klopp, Emery, Simeone, Enri

Famous new and old coaches such as Gram, Koeman, and Neville were all present, as well as presidents of wealthy teams such as Florentino, Abramovich, Rummenigge, Bartomeu, and Agnelli. The momentum was evident.

.

Beckham, Lineker, Alan Shearer, Owen, Scholes, John Terry, Lampard, Ferdinand, Ashley Cole and other British stars were even more dressed up to ensure that the host country would win this game.

In the competition of face, outsiders will not usurp the honor.

2017 is the second independent selection of World Footballer and Ballon d'Or. Of course, FIFA wants to use its own platform advantages to overwhelm "France Football" in this invisible competition and completely control the world football.

The right to speak.

So they mobilized all their energy, summoned all the football celebrities who had nothing to do, and created a grand awards ceremony!

Although "France Football"'s awards ceremony at the Eiffel Tower is very novel, their awards venue is extremely narrow, and the guests can only squeeze into office chairs and listen to the host's nonsense. In contrast, FIFA chose the UK's best

One of the famous opera houses serves as the main venue and can accommodate more than 2,000 people to enjoy this grand event!

Dozens of superstars, dozens of famous coaches, dozens of club presidents, hundreds of representatives from national football associations, more than a thousand mainstream news media, and even hundreds of local fans and spectators were invited. On such a scale, "

"French Football" cannot be compared at all!

"It's over, I can't put on the dress at all now..."

Lisanna, who was six months pregnant, finally gave up those beautiful glittering dresses and chose a loose and comfortable dress.

As Lee Polo's wife, of course she has to attend this event, not to mention the award ceremony is right at her doorstep!

When Lee Polo walked out of the extended-length Lincoln with Lisanna on his arm, he was immediately surrounded by dozens of reporters, and the spotlights flashed.

Fortunately, these reporters obeyed the rules and did not block their way forward. Lee Polo just waved to them with his free right hand and continued to walk into the venue with his wife on his arm.

As one of the popular candidates, their seats were arranged in the first row. Before Li Polo could sit down, he saw Messi and his wife Antonella sitting quietly a few steps away.

Not surprisingly, the position to Messi's right is still empty...

The corners of Li Polo's mouth raised slightly and he extended his right hand to Messi.

The Argentine football king didn't like him at all, but he still maintained basic courtesy, shook hands with him, and even said:

"Congratulations."

Li Polo was stunned for a moment:

"Thanks."

Looking at the silent Messi, Li Polo suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart.

[Messi is a good boy...]

[Did I bully him too badly in the past two years? 】

As soon as this idea came up, he immediately shook his head in denial:

[When he teased me with ghost dribbling, he didn’t think about it like this, did he? 】

[I won the game based on my own ability, why should I feel guilty?]

-

The image of their handshake certainly did not escape the live cameras and was immediately broadcast to hundreds of millions of television viewers around the world.

And all kinds of embellished news are flying all over the Internet:

"New and old alternation! The third generation of football king Messi personally hands over the crown to the fourth generation of Li Polo!"

"It's embarrassing to miss anyone. Cristiano Ronaldo will not be able to attend this award ceremony because he is about to attend the American rape case!"

"Lee Polo beats me in every aspect in terms of his football and character! My wife even beats Georgina!"

"No, Georgina is not even Ronaldo's wife! She is just his long-term nanny!"

…

Cristiano Ronaldo, who was hiding at home, turned off his mobile phone network and went to the gym to train like crazy! -

"Ladies and gentlemen, football fans around the world, good evening!"

FIFA President, bald Infantino appeared in front of everyone with a cheerful face.

Appearing with him was the famous British actor Idris Elba who served as the host.

Compared with the short Golden Globe Awards, the ceremony lasted for two hours, and some viewers in front of the TV could not wait to fast forward to the last moment.

The first thing to be unveiled is the 2017 Best Goal Award, also known as the Puskas Award.

What surprised Li Polo was that...this award was actually won by his new club teammate.

Giroud, who had just joined the team less than a week ago, appeared on the stage with a shiny slicked back hair and a big smile, and became the first recipient of the award.

Facing an audience of nearly 2,000 guests, he had bright eyes:

"As everyone knows, I have just completed the transfer. In the new team, I hope to get the support of my teammates and create more wonderful goals and wins together!"

Li Polo looked at the award-winning area around him:

[It seems...except for myself, there is no other Chelsea player!]

[The ‘support of teammates’ you just mentioned, are you talking about it for me? 】

-

As the awards ceremony progressed, various awards were announced one after another:

The best men's football coach was won by Gary Neville, who won six championship trophies in La Liga, Copa del Rey, Champions League, European Super Cup, Spanish Super Cup, and Club World Cup in 2017. He defeated the double winner.

Juventus coach Allegri, and Premier League champion Conte.

However, due to multi-front operations this season, Valencia's performance has obviously declined. With two fewer rounds, the Bats have fallen out of the top four in the league.

Neville, who took the stage to receive the award, was in high spirits and radiant, without showing any trace of his recent stress:

“As a newcomer in the coaching field, I feel honored to receive such an honor.

I must also thank the players who have fought alongside me. Without their hard work, I would never have been able to achieve this result alone..."

For his humble attitude, the audience burst into applause.

Former teammates Scholes, Lampard and others were even more jealous!

[We are all Three Lions legends, why are you so lucky? 】

-

The best goalkeeper was won by former Valencia goalkeeper Diego Alves.

Although Alves has returned to his roots and returned to the Brazilian League, his influence is far less than that of top goalkeepers such as Buffon and Neuer. However, considering that this is FIFA's annual awards ceremony, appropriate care must be taken of other continents and his performance in La Liga last season.

His magical performance in the Champions League - especially in saving penalty kicks was like a miracle, and FIFA still awarded him this modest honor.

In order to receive the award, Alves traveled half way around the world from Brazil:

"I would like to thank my coaches and teammates, especially a certain teammate sitting in the audience. The reason why I was able to save so many penalty kicks is closely related to his help!"

Li Polo, who was sitting in the audience, smiled.

【This is the praise I have earned!】

-

The Best Fan Award was won by Celtic, a veteran club of the Scottish Premiership. Their home atmosphere really made the visiting team shudder.

The Best Women's Football Coach Award was won by Dutch coach Wegmann, who led his team to win the European Cup. The "uncrowned king" of the women's football team is much better than the men's football team.

The Fair Play Award was won by the little-known Ivory Coast forward Koné in the Czech League. He helped treat the opponent's unconscious goalkeeper during the game and contributed to saving the goalkeeper's life.

And in the WPA best team, Lee Polo also saw three familiar old teammates:

Goalkeeper: Alves

Defenders: Cancelo, Ramos, Van Dijk, Marcelo

Midfielder: Modric, Iniesta, Parejo

Forwards: Cristiano Ronaldo, Li Polo, Messi

"Brothers, they are all here to receive their awards!"

Li Polo, who was on the podium, warmly hugged his old teammates one by one.

Bat captain Parejo was so excited that his face turned pale. If Lee Polo hadn't led the team to win the championship, how would he be qualified to stand on this stage!

On the contrary, Van Dijk, a late bloomer, is much calmer and can even make a joke with Lee Polo:

"I really want to eliminate Chelsea in the Champions League!"

Li Polo laughed loudly:

"Just wait for me!"

The only ones left at the end are individual awards.

Miss World Football was awarded to the European Cup MVP, Dutch winger Martens, by Hidetoshi Nakata. However, the recipient of the award was unable to attend the event in person due to schedule reasons.

After the video of Martens accepting the award was played, Maradona and Ronaldo walked from behind the scenes to the stage.

As the last and most important award, it is worthy of two generations of football champions appearing at the same time.

Ronaldo took the envelope from the hostess, opened it three times, and then handed it to Maradona.

Although both of them are famous in football, when standing next to Lao Ma, Ronaldo always has to lower his head - even though Lao Ma is only a little over 1.6 meters tall...

Lao Ma, who was completely out of shape, didn't even bother to read the name on the piece of paper and directly announced:

"The winner of the 2017 FIFA Best Player Award is...Lee Polo!"

All the previous preparations are just procedures!
