Chapter 429: 5 !
Wang Feng wins the European Ballon d'Or again! At midnight on December 2nd, the homepage news of "France Football" official website was updated, and the result was consistent with the speculation of most people outside.
This is the fifth time the Chinese superstar has won this honor! Among all 96 judges, 76 voted for Wang Feng in the first place, and his total score reached 446 points.
Therefore, in terms of point difference, Wang Feng has a huge advantage just like last year's winner. The second place, Cristiano Ronaldo, only received 281 points, and the third is Torres from Liverpool, who got 179 points. Messi dropped out of the top three and ranked fourth, with Casillas fifth.
In the interview with the winner, the chief editor Puffenasti said: "Wang Feng's election is well-deserved. He is still the best player in Europe and even in the world."
Having dealt with the Chinese superstar for so many years, the French always feel that he has a mature temperament different from ordinary players, whether he is twenty or twenty-five years old. "There is a Chinese saying, 'The child of a poor family becomes early independent,' as Wang Feng said."
"But I have seen too many genius football stars from poor backgrounds. After they became rich overnight, they fell into the temptation of wealth and gradually lost their talents. So Wang Feng is unique!"
At the same time, Puffenasti believes that self-discipline is one of the important reasons why Wang Feng has always maintained his peak state. "Even now, he still maintains the habit of extra training. I have visited his villa, and the complex fitness facilities and frequent usage have made me deeply respectful."
In contrast, some players quickly decline after reaching their peak. The most representative example is Ronaldinho, the former world footballer three years ago, who can't even enter the top thirty of the Ballon d'Or now, and he's only 28 years old!
Puffenasti hopes that Wang Feng can continue to maintain his original intention and continue his outstanding performance to bring more exciting matches to football fans around the world.
The announcement of the European Ballon d'Or has caused media discussions. Not only Wang Feng, but each player on the list will be introduced in detail. They belong to a group of players at the highest level in the world of football.
Among them are retiring veterans and emerging young talents, and Spain has the most players on the list thanks to the energy of winning the European Championship.
It is worth mentioning that Chinese player Dong Fangzhuo has entered the list of the top thirty Ballon d'Or for the first time. Although he is only ranked 26th and did not receive any votes in the voting, this is already excellent.
After all, besides him, Bayern Munich has only one player on the list, which is Klose ranked 16th. The fact that Dong Fangzhuo is seen as one of the team's core players by both the club and the outside world.
Domestic fans are spreading the news one after another, and their enthusiasm is not inferior to the scene when Wang Feng won the Ballon d'Or for the first time. Who would have thought that two Chinese names would appear in the list representing the pinnacle of football?
"Going abroad is the only way!" A fan wrote passionately on the internet: "The fact proves that we never lack excellent football genes and talents. What we lack is just a platform for growth and high-level competitive training."
"The development of domestic leagues and youth training is by no means the only requirement. Look at the neighboring Japanese and South Korean leagues, look at the two giants in South America, and even look at Ligue 1. They are not well-known, but they have produced one excellent player after another."
On December 8th, in the 14th round of La Liga, Real Madrid welcomed Sevilla at home. Just one day before, Wang Feng had just brought back the Ballon d'Or trophy from France, so according to the usual practice, he showed it to all the home fans before the match, winning cheers from them. However, the Chinese superstar, who had been traveling back and forth, did not appear on the starting lineup.
It was a match played in the snow. In the past four or five days, most parts of Spain have experienced rare heavy snowfall, and the slippery pitch brought a lot of uncertainty to the game.
Just 5 minutes into the game, Sevilla took the lead. Navas crossed from the right, Casillas made a mistake in coming out to catch the ball, and Kanoute pushed the ball between Ramos' legs into the net. The Galaxy Battleship trailed 0-1!
After conceding a goal, Saint Casillas shook his gloves irritably. The wetness of the melted snow far exceeded his imagination, indicating that he couldn't continue to rely on conventional goalkeeping experience.
In the 17th minute, Guti dribbled the ball down the right and crossed from the bottom after forcefully shaking off the defense. Due to the excessive movement, he fell out of the field after kicking the ball.
Fortunately, the efforts of the Spanish center-back were not in vain. Raúl scored with a header in front of the goal, breaking through Sevilla's goalkeeper Palop's ten fingers and equalizing for the home team.
Both sides then fell into a stalemate for a period of time. The unfavorable pitch conditions led to a sharp increase in passing errors and failed to form effective threats until the end of the first half.
Navas broke into the penalty area and was fouled by Marcelo, who was originally just going towards the ball but misjudged the angle, resulting in a foul.
The referee decisively awarded a yellow card and awarded Sevilla a penalty kick. Navas personally took the penalty, deceived Casillas and scored, giving the away team the lead again.
This can't go on! According to the received match report, Barcelona has already led Valencia by two goals, and they are likely to win again. If Real Madrid loses this round, the gap with them will further widen.
So at the beginning of the second half, the head coach Schuster replaced Wang Feng. The Chinese superstar has never let him and the fans down.
In the 51st minute, Diarra made a long pass from the back, Wang Feng, with his back to the attacking direction, fiercely headed the ball to Guti before Navarro, and then turned and ran forward.
The Spaniard sent a straight pass very cooperatively, and Wang Feng and Navarro chased the ball to the edge of the penalty area. The Chinese superstar stretched out his right foot to hook the ball back first, then made a lateral move with his left foot, shaking off Navarro with speed and rhythm changes.
Then he made another lateral move before Escudé could catch up, making the French defender's defense fall short. He caught up and sent out a shot with his left foot, the ball flew in an arc in the air, and there was also a leaf-like trend in the vertical direction.
Goalkeeper Palop couldn't defend against it at all, his save couldn't touch this strange shot, he could only watch the ball go into the net, 2-2! The home team equalized again!
"What an extremely brilliant shot! I think no goalkeeper in the world can keep it out of the goal!"
"The slippery pitch, Wang Feng's unique touch angle and strength, the high-speed rotation of the ball, and the wind speed all contributed to this shot. Looking from the perspective facing the goal, the ball is completely advancing in three-dimensional space, with no regular trajectory, it's really unbeatable!"
Seven minutes after this goal, Real Madrid launched another attack. Higuain received the ball outside the penalty area, then pushed it diagonally backward, and Wang Feng, who was running, directly volleyed a powerful shot at the goal from 25 meters away. The ball grazed the left post and went into the goal., 3-2!
In the 79th minute, the Galaxy Battleship won a corner kick. Guti crossed it into the penalty area, and Wang Feng outjumped Squillaci and Konko to head the ball into the goal, 4-2, completely securing the victory. Wang Feng completed a hat-trick in the second half.
