Chapter 210: Chapter 210
The first thing of the ceremony was of course the speech of FIFA President Blatter. After this innocuous speech came the announcement of the big rewards.
To increase his influence, Blatter specifically created the FIFA President's Special Award, which this year was given to war-torn Iraq.
The fair play award was given to supporters of Scottish club Celtic, during last year's UEFA Cup final, where Celtic lost to Porto but kept their fans awake.
The most improved award of the year went to the Asian team from Bahrain. The country is only slightly larger than Andorra and Singapore, with a population of around 700,000 and only 5,000 registered players.
But they reached the main match of the 2004 Asian Cup and their FIFA ranking increased from 105th to 64th, which can be said to have increased rapidly. Vuong Phong paid more attention to this country. In next year's Asian Cup, the Chinese team will be in the same group as Indonesia and Qatar and will soon face their opponents.
The award for the best team of the year fell to the unnerved Brazilian team. Since winning the 2002 World Cup, Brazil's dream team continued their strong form and won eight international tournaments throughout the year. Results were stable with 5 draws and 4 losses.
The final winner of Miss Soccer World was German Prinz. She defeated American Hamm and Swede Ljungberg to win the award for the first time.
During the US Women's World Cup that just ended 2 months ago, Prinz helped Germany win the World Cup for the first time, so it can be said that her reward is very desirable. .....
As the finale approached, everyone present at the venue became tense. Thousands of fans in front of the national television station watched the screen eagerly awaiting this historic moment.
Vuong Phong suddenly worried about what he would gain or lose. What if it wasn't him? Although his performance last year was extremely bright, FIFA, which values reputation more, may choose Zidane. Just like Nedved, who was shortlisted for five Golden Globes, he did not even make the top ten contenders for the World Footballer of the Year award. Although Juventus had a poor performance last year, more and more people believe that the cause is FIFA. Eastern European influence was considered too weak.
How do they assess the influence of the Asian region? Vuong Phong did not know that the 20-year-old man's palms were drenched in sweat. He realized that the desire to fight in his heart was so strong. Blatter once again took the stage to announce the three best players of 2003: Zidane, Henry and Wang Feng. At the same time, the big screen behind him also broadcast highlights of their goals in real time. Wang Feng's shocking performance against Real Madrid Shooting is one of them.
Although everyone present had seen this shot, it still aroused small whispers, Zidane next to Vuong Phong whispered: "You can still score goals that will shock the world. The same goes for the volley."
Vuong Phong replied in a deep voice: "Didn't you also play in the Champions League final?" To be honest, I feel that the more elegant and important your shot is." Zidane shook his head and remained silent, he dared to arbitrarily launch a long shot.
When the World Player of the Year trophy was brought to the podium, everyone held their breath waiting for the results. Vuong Phong and Zidane could not sit still. Even though the French have won the Honorable Mention, faced with the title of first player, who can calmly accept it? "I am here to solemnly declare on behalf of FIFA that the World Player of the Year 2003 is…Wang Feng!"
The strange pinyin pronunciation echoed throughout the room. Vuong Phong instinctively jumped out of his seat, shook his right hand, and waved his arms to show excitement. At the same time, the audience applauded enthusiastically.
For the majority of people, this result is nothing unexpected, last season Vuong Phong's performance was too good! Not only the club's five-time title but also the individual European Golden Shoe and Champions League top scorer, it is an unprecedented honor.
And since the second half, his form in Serie A has not declined at all. He contributed 21 goals after 12 rounds and also scored 7 goals in the Champions League. He also helped Inter Milan win the Toyota Cup after many years.
Zidane's face showed disappointment, but he quickly stood up and hugged Vuong Phong, congratulating him on becoming the new number one in the world. Henry is more open because he knows it will never be his turn.
When Vuong Phong stepped up to the podium to speak, the big screen also showed the election of the World's Best Player. Vuong Phong received 304 votes, while second place Zidane received 166 votes, nearly half that of Vuong Phong.
Henry ranked third with 156 votes, fourth was Ronaldo with 148 votes, fifth was Carlos with 115 votes, sixth was Van Nistelrooy with 86 votes, seventh was Beckham with 74 votes and eighth was Raul with 39 votes. ninth is Maldini with 37 votes. votes, and the tenth person is Shevchenko with 26 votes.
Vuong Phong won the title of World's Best Player in Prague, then raised it high above his head, the audience roared with applause and cheers.
It is a semi-domed rectangular trophy, fully gilded. The earth's longitude and latitude are plotted on the front. A crystal ball is inlaid in the middle of the cup. Wang Feng's name and the year of award are engraved on the base of the plate. He is also bilingual in Chinese and English. .
Thanks to his absolute advantage and undisputed achievements, he won the highest honor among professional players and reached the pinnacle of world football!
Vuong Phong suppressed his excitement, approached the microphone, took a deep breath, wanted to give a speech to accept the award, but suddenly forgot the introduction, could only laugh shyly ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ A voice echoed in the room. clapped like thunder again, encouraging the young player. "It was a dream night for me."
"When I set foot on European soil 4 years ago, I never imagined I would be where I am today. At that time, I just wanted to become a professional player, earn money to help my family and satisfy my passion for football. .
"I come from a small football country, China. I may have football talent, but the most important factor for success is hard work. I have never given up on training and working hard." just non-stop for the past 4 years."
"Weakness is not an excuse, as long as you work hard you will be rewarded!"
"I want to thank all the Inter Milan players, as well as coaches Cooper and Mancini. With their full support, I was able to achieve such good statistics and Inter Milan was able to take glory again."
"I also want to thank Henk and Vertonghen, coaches Magritte and Antonis, and thank everyone who has cared for me and developed me. Your support is key to my journey."
"Finally, I would also like to thank my family and my girlfriend. They stood by me during difficult times. Thinking of you gives me infinite strength. Thank you!"
The hall once again rang with warm applause, everyone stood up to applaud Shinco's Player of the Year. Most of them more or less knew Vuong Phong's habit of working hard, and his words seemed meaningful at this moment. Football is unfair to a certain extent. There are always talented players, but without intensive training, these talented players will fly across the field like meteors and disappear in the blink of an eye. .
However, there are many players with mediocre talent who, relying on a serious and hard-working spirit, make every effort to develop their physique and potential, achieving achievements that many geniuses cannot achieve. .
