Football: Don’t talk about feelings, I’m just an AI

Chapter 264 Champion Award Ceremony: It’s him, it’s him, and it’s him!

"It's still Gerard!"

"If you don't find an opportunity, dribble to the left!"

"Spoon...shoot!"

"Ouch!"

"still have a chance!"

"Ah! Beautiful!"

"The third!"

"Xia Qi used his butt to make up the shot and scored the third goal!"

"6:3!, 82nd minute of the game! Xia Qi killed the Germans' hopes."

"Germany is finished. There is no hope at all. Their chances of winning the championship are only theoretical."

"England's counterattack was not very threatening. Gerrard's spoon shot hit the crossbar and the ball flew towards Xia Qi. In a hurry, Xia Qi had no time to turn around and could only hit the ball with his butt..."

"Butt goal! Oh my god! I don't know what words or tone to use to express my feelings at this moment..."

"England has already firmly embraced the World Cup. If Germany can't create a miracle in the remaining ten minutes, then 48 years later, England will bring the World Cup home."

The commentaries of many football commentators were drowned out by the thunderous and crazy cheers from the Maracanã Stadium...

Everyone knows what Xia Qi's goal means.

While the English were venting their emotions that had been brewing for 48 years, everyone else was waiting quietly, and no one disturbed them...

The German players no longer urged the ball to be kicked off as soon as possible.

On the scoreboard beside the court:

England: Germany

6:3

82

In the 82nd minute, Germany was three goals behind and had only a slim chance of tying the game. The Germans no longer cared much about time...

Maybe it's better to end it sooner!

That Xia Qi is simply a devil!

When the German team ignited hope, he promptly extinguished it, igniting it once, extinguishing it once... until all the Germans were tired...

It’s better to end it early and be relieved early!

Three minutes later, the referee asked Gerrard, who was still not satisfied, "Want to work overtime?"

Gerrard shuddered. Damn! How evil! 996 is also required for the World Cup?

Hurry up and call your teammates back to the game.

After the restart, Germany no longer had the "never give up" spirit.

The whole team was confused and played without any plan.

On the pitch, Hodgson decided to quit while he was ahead and told Lampard and Phil Jones to warm up.

Hodgson was ready to put his horses aside and put his weapons into storage, and the whole team defended with all their might to preserve the fruits of victory.

In the 86th minute, Lampard came on to replace Rooney.

In the 90th minute, Phil Jones came on to replace Xia Qi.

When Xia Qi left the field, the entire stadium stood up and applauded, chanting his name, including German fans...

"During injury time, Xia Qi was substituted off the court."

"Oh my god! The whole stadium stood up and applauded! The whole stadium! All the fans stood up! At this moment, football transcended national boundaries..."

"Xia Qi deserves this honor. He scored three goals and made one assist in this game. In fact, all six goals of England were related to him..."

"He scored an unprecedented 21 goals in the World Cup, making him the player with the most goals in history and the player with the most goals in a single tournament. I guess he can only break this record in four years..."

"It was so exciting. It was the first time I saw the whole audience shouting one person's name together on the stage of the World Cup final. Everyone was applauding for this person..."

"This person is Xia Qi, who will be 19 in a month. It is conceivable that England, with him, will be the favorite to win the European Cup and the World Cup in the future..."

After Xia Qi left the field, the English fans did not sit down like the German fans, but sang loudly with all their might shoulder to shoulder...

On the England bench, the players also stood on the sidelines...

The referee was very responsible and gave five minutes of extra time, but the German tank had run out of fuel, and the remaining time was a torture.

At this moment, they just want to "escape" from here as soon as possible!

Game time, 95 minutes and 52 seconds!

The referee blew two short and one long whistles...

Xia Qi rushed into the court with the substitute players.

"The game is over!"

"Dear audience, the game is over!"

"England beat Germany 6-3 at the Maracana Stadium, fulfilling a 48-year World Cup dream!"

"Congratulations to the young Chinese player Xia Qi who scored 21 goals, and congratulations to England!"

"England defeated Italy, the Netherlands, Argentina and Germany by a large margin in this World Cup. The value of their victory is beyond doubt. They are well-deserved world champions."

"Xia Qi is even crazier. In the first World Cup, he set the record for the most goals scored in a single World Cup and the most goals scored in the World Cup, beating Gerd Muller, Ronaldo, and other great players on the beach..."

"I believe this is just the starting point for Xia Qi. He will continue to challenge his own records in the future. He will also continue to surprise us in the league, Champions League, European Cup and World Cup."

"With his outstanding performance in the league, Champions League and World Cup, Xia Qi is very likely to win the Ballon d'Or again and become the third pole after Messi and Ronaldo..."

English fans were shouting crazily: "Long live England!" "England, champions!"

On the pitch, Klose, Kroos… their eyes were filled with tears, their gazes all looking at the same place, where the afterglow of the setting sun made the black-haired boy sparkle, his smile was as comforting as a flower…

Why does the "devil" have Buddha's light?

Thinking of Xia Qi, who will be 19 in a month, Kroos, Muller... I feel that the rest of my life will be dark. It is lucky but also unfortunate to be the same generation as that boy.

...

...

The entire venue instantly became lively as many reporters and players' families poured into the stadium to celebrate with the players or conduct interviews.

Reporters, armed with microphones and cameras, rushed to capture this moment of victory.

Everyone wants exclusive interviews and photos.

They held recorders and cameras and interviewed the players and coaching staff one by one.

Among them, a BBC reporter caught Xia Qi and conducted an in-depth interview.

"Xia Qi, first of all, congratulations. Your performance in this game was perfect." The reporter said at the beginning.

"Thank you. We didn't expect to win so easily." Xia Qi responded with a smile.

"You scored three goals in the game. What does this performance mean to your career?" the reporter asked.

"I will give my all in every game. I would like to thank my teammates for today's results. We are a team and work together for this goal." Xia Qi always maintains a humble attitude.

"What are your plans for the future? Will you continue to stay at Arsenal?" the reporter continued to delve deeper into the topic.

"I haven't thought too much about it yet. I want to enjoy this moment first. There is still a long way to go in the future. I hope I can continue to maintain my form and contribute more to the team."

Xia Qi's answer revealed his infinite longing for the future, while at the same time he did not forget to mention his cherishment of the present moment.

On the court, Rooney found his wife Colleen and took their daughter from her. At this time, Rooney's eyes were filled with tears.

Seeing her husband so emotional, Colleen gave him a passionate and long kiss.

This also became the front-page photo of The Times the next day.

Steven Gerrard's eldest daughter Lily left her mother and sister far behind. She rushed into the field first and jumped into her father's arms. She gave Gerrard a kiss and cried, "You almost scored a goal."

Gerard gently wiped the princess's "pearl beans" lovingly and said with a smile: "What does it matter if there are no goals? Your brother Xia scored three goals, but he is not as happy as me, poor single dog."

"Dad, you can't say that about him. I'm going to marry him when I grow up."

Gerard’s eldest daughter is 10 years old this year and Xia Qi is 19 years old, so it seems like it’s possible!

Gerrard's face instantly turned dark into a "runner-up face".

As Luke Shaw's family walked down from the stands, passed through the VIP channel and came to the side of the court.

When Luke Shaw saw them, he ran over and the family hugged each other tightly. His father's first words were: "You make us all proud, son."

This sentence seems to be the best response to Luke Shaw's heroic performance throughout the game.

"Dad, I..."

A word stuck in my throat.

Luke Shaw burst into tears...

Many England fans also wanted to rush into the stadium to be with the players. Their excitement was beyond words and everyone's face was filled with irrepressible joy.

But security personnel tried hard to keep the crazy fans out of the stadium because it was not the right time yet and the subsequent award ceremony needed to proceed in an orderly manner.

Inside the stadium, staff were setting up the podium, with flowers and ribbons decorating the stage, ready to welcome the upcoming winner.

The players were reminded to go back to the locker room, shower, change into award-winning uniforms, and then return to the court.

In the player tunnel, the 36-year-old Klose stopped Xia Qi and asked to exchange jerseys with him.

After the two shook hands, Klose gave him a big hug.

"You put us old guys to shame..." Klose said half-jokingly.

"Don't say that, I grew up watching your games..." Xia Qi's flattery instantly dissipated the sadness on Klose's face. He smiled and looked very happy.

In the locker room, Xia Qi and other players did not take a shower immediately. Instead, they opened the champagne and poured it over Hodgson's head. Then the assistant coaches and the housekeeping team... the teammates. They were joking with each other, and the mood was high. They only took a shower after the assistant coaches repeatedly requested them to do so. During this time, the laughter never stopped...

...

...

After Xia Qi and others washed up,

Night has fallen at the Maracanã…

On the sidelines of the stadium, lights illuminated the night sky as bright as day, and media helicopters hovered in the air, transmitting this scene to the world in real time.

FIFA's leader Blatter and the Brazilian Football Confederation's boss, as well as England's champions, the Football Association and Prince Charles, are all there...

After everything is ready,

FIFA's Blatter was the first to go on stage at the invitation of the host.

"Dear audience, Mr. Blatter will present the individual World Cup awards before presenting the team championship awards."

"The first individual award of this World Cup has been born..."

In the stands, Blatt looked down at the manuscript, adjusted the microphone, and said with a smile:

"This World Cup is really exciting! Isn't it?"

The whole audience burst into applause, and shouts of "yes!" rang out from the stands!

Blatter then asked: "Who do you think is the best player in this World Cup?"

"summer!"

"Xia Qi!"

"prince!"

"No, it's His Majesty the King!"

The fans' answers varied but they all pointed to the same person.

"I'm sorry! The first World Cup individual trophy cannot be awarded to our Xiao Xiao Xia. I'm afraid that after he receives the award, you will all run away..."

There was laughter in the Maracanã Stadium...

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first award is the Golden Glove Award, and its winner is Xia Qi from England..."

The whole audience let out a surprised “Ah…”

Blatt smiled slightly, and then continued calmly: "My good friend Joe Hart, please welcome Joe!"

The audience first burst into laughter, and then gave warm applause.

Joe Hart walked out of the England team and did not go on stage to receive the award immediately. Instead, he hugged head coach Hodgson first, then hugged captain Gerrard and his good friend Xia Qi.

"Thank you, Xia Qi! Without you, I wouldn't be able to defeat Neuer."

Before the final, Neuer was the goalkeeper who conceded the fewest goals in this World Cup, followed by Joe Hart, but in the final England scored six goals and sent Joe Hart to the podium.

"Jo!"

"Jo!"

"Jo!"

Amid the cheers of more than 30,000 England fans, Joe Hart received a trophy from Blatter that he could brag about for the rest of his life.

Next up are the bronze, silver and golden boot awards at the World Cup.

The Bronze and Silver Boot awards have rankings but no trophies.

On the podium, Blatter continued to announce:

"Who is the winner of the Golden Boot Award in this World Cup?"

He pointed the microphone at the fans in the stands.

The fans in the stadium answered in unison: "Xia... Qi!"

The Golden Boot Award is based on statistics, and it is clear who will win the award. There is no suspense at all.

Xia Qi went on stage with a smile on his face to receive the award. After saying thank you to Blatter, he took the trophy and held it high...

There was thunderous applause all around!

After the Golden Boot comes the Best Newcomer Award.

"The winner of this year's World Rookie of the Year is England's Xia Qi!"

"The winner of the World Cup Best Coach Award is Mr. Hodgson of England!"

After these two awards comes the most important individual award, the Golden Globe.

"The winner of this World Cup's Golden Ball is..." Blatter looked around.

The people in the stands couldn't wait to shout: "Xia Qi!"

Blatt nodded: "England No. 9 - Xia Qi!"

The Maracanã Stadium exploded with a loud bang.

Cheers, screams, Chinese drums, horns... all around.

Blatter made a quiet gesture to the fans around him.

When the whole stadium calmed down, he roared loudly: "In the history of the World Cup, there has never been a player who won the Best Newcomer, Golden Boot and Golden Ball awards in the same session. Xia Qi is the only one."

The Maracana Stadium was set off again, and the fans shouted themselves hoarse for the next month!

Xia Qi received the Golden Ball and bowed to the fans in the stands around him...

"Thank you..." Xia Qi also choked up...

After the individual awards are presented, the team awards will be presented.

The first team to take the stage was the runner-up team Germany.

In competitive sports, the runner-up is more unacceptable than the third or fourth place. The German players had no smiles on their faces the whole time. They went on stage like they were escaping and left like they were escaping.

When it was England's turn, there was laughter.

Luke Shaw, the youngest player in the team, was the first to rush onto the stage after Blatter announced England as the champion, and was grabbed by Xia Qi.

"Haha, the head coach hasn't even come on stage yet and Luke has already rushed up."

"Luke scored a goal tonight and I think he's just so excited..."

"I scored in the World Cup final at the age of 18, I won the World Cup at the age of 18, my God, when I was 18..."

"Xaqi will be 19 years old in one month. These two, one after the other, are the future of our England."

...

...

There are two steps to go on stage to receive the award. First, Blatter shook hands with the coaches and players one by one and hung gold medals on them.

Then Prince Charles and the Brazilian Football Association handed the World Cup to England captain Gerrard.

Then comes the best moment: holding the trophy.

The Maracana Stadium suddenly became quiet.

The lights in the stadium suddenly went out at this moment, leaving only a spotlight shining on the World Cup trophy.

Hold your breath.

The whole audience is looking forward to it!

At this moment, Gerard suddenly stopped what he was doing and waved to Xia Qi.

"Gerrard wanted to share this glorious moment with Xia Qi."

"Xaqi fully deserves this honor. It is no exaggeration to say that it was Xiaqi who dragged England forward..."

Under the spotlight, Xia Qi stood on Gerrard's left and right without hesitation. After squatting slightly, he suddenly raised the Hercules trophy above his head.

At that moment, all the lights in the venue lit up!

Streamers and gold dust were sprayed, and the World Cup theme song was played...

Meanwhile, security returned to their corners and fans rushed onto the field.

Many people thought that the award ceremony ended here, but that is not true.

There are also the Fair Play Award and the World Cup Best Team, but these two are usually announced in the post-match press conference.

England players interact with fans: signing autographs, taking photos, chatting...

There was a very elegant urban blonde beauty who came to Xia Qi for his autograph with an England No. 9 jersey.

"Hi, Xia! My name is Savannah Brad, and I'm from Canada..."
