[Football] Crown of Thorns

On the last day of 2012, the Red Army beat the Royal Garden Rangers away in the league.

Immediately afterwards, on the third day after entering the new year, on January 2013, 1, Liverpool will face the black cats Sunderland at home.

Next, there is the FA Cup match on January 7.

"One game after another, it's so cool."

The yin and yang sentence was naturally Gama talking at home with his manager who returned from a vacation in Lisbon.

"You can't go to Zurich unless the manager gives you a day off."

Agostinho drool calmly, then smiled and said "Thank you" to Joanna who brought the fruit plate in front of him!

去年也就是2012年10月29日，《法国足球》杂志公布了2012年度“FIFA金球奖”的23人候选名单。

This list is led by Ronaldo and Messi, who have also become the most powerful contenders for this award.

Judging from this list, at the club level, Real Madrid has become the biggest winner. A total of 7 Real Madrid players have been selected: Casillas, Ramos, Alonso, Ozil, Kaka, Ronaldo and Benzema; Barcelona has three players selected: Iniesta, Xavi and Messi.At the level of the national team, although they failed to defend the European Cup, the Spanish team is still the team with the largest number of players selected. There are a total of five players shortlisted. They are: Iker Casillas, Ramos, Alonso, Iniesta and Xavi.The European Cup runner-up Italian team has three people selected: Buffon, Pirlo and Balotelli.The Portuguese team, which won the European Cup for the first time in history, has become the champion team, but they, Argentina and Côte d'Ivoire each have two players shortlisted, Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo and Vasco da Gama, Argentina's Messi and Agui Luo, and Drogba and Yaya Toure of Côte d'Ivoire...the above and so on.

Not to mention anything else, for Agostinho, his Gama was selected as the top 23 list of the Golden Globe Awards, which brought him the greatest benefit, compared to being able to play when signing players... Hehe~ ~

However, Gama didn't care much about being selected. In his mind, it was impossible not to be elected, but fundamentally speaking, the FIFA Ballon d'Or was awarded by the head coaches, captains and some football reporters of each national team. The awards selected by voting basically depend on who is more famous in these shortlists so that the chances of winning will be higher. Although he was rated as an important core for Portugal to win the European Cup by many people in the industry, his reputation is always the same. It is still not as good as the others, so the possibility of entering the top three is almost zero.

In this regard, Gama did not take the matter of being selected to heart.

One month after the announcement of the selected list, FIFA and "French Football" announced the final three-man list in Brazil on November 11.

As Gama said, not only did he fail to enter the top three, but he also failed to enter the top five, only ranking ninth.

Finally entered the top three are: Ronaldo, Messi, Kaka.

"Actually, I've always wondered why people who didn't make it to the finals were selected?"

Agostinho, who received the news at the time, still said this to Gama on the phone indignantly.

"Because the other party is more famous!"

Gama was very calm.

"This kind of award rules is too unfair."

Old Tiha was still indignant.

"Anyway, within five years, I don't think my chances of winning a prize will be too high."

At that time, Gama answered his agent like this.

As for whether he won the award, apart from feeling that he is not famous enough and his status is not high enough, Gama still thinks that his captain Ronaldo should win the award.However, after seeing the odds reported by the major gaming companies in the media, most people are still optimistic about Messi's success, which makes Gama feel incredible.

Although Messi's achievements in 2012 were indeed extraordinary, in the 2012 season Messi scored a total of 65 goals and 20 assists, of which he scored a record 50 goals in the league and became the Champions League scorer for 4 consecutive years. The scoring efficiency is really incredible, but in terms of collective honor, the national team failed in the Copa America, and the club only won the Copa del Rey, which is not something that can add gold and points.

Looking at Ronaldo on the other hand, he scored 46 goals in the league season and 10 goals in the Champions League. The most important thing is that he scored a total of six goals in the European Cup to help Portugal win the first European Cup in history. As for the results, in Jia Ma's opinion, he had more chances than others.

But who told Messi to win the European Golden Boot before the Golden Globe!

Even Guti, the former Real Madrid vice-captain who is always the team vice-Madridist, said this in an interview: I will never tire of repeating this sentence, I will give the Ballon d'Or to Messi, but The biggest regret is that he is a Barcelona player.

Gama liked Guti better, but just for this sentence, he was really angry. He mentioned this kind of complaint in the conversations with his friends Veloso and Ann, and then somehow made him feel angry. The complaints reached Ronaldo's ears-an you have a big mouth and Fabio you a dog!Gama language.

"Don't say that, Guti didn't mean anything malicious, he just expressed his dissatisfaction with Barcelona."

Ronaldo on the phone said very empathetically.

Of course, after a certain gentleman took the phone and said, "He just doesn't want to upset you, and he doesn't mind being looked down upon at all, because he is the world's number one, second, and third most handsome man!"

The background sound on the other end of the phone came the voice of Ronaldo shouting, "Don't talk nonsense to Xiko, I didn't mean that at all".

Mr. A smiled, "You know, Cris has been in a lot of trouble recently. He counterattacked after being insulted and provoked by the opponent's fans in the game against Mallorca. After scoring, he made a louder voice." ' provocative gesture, which drew unanimous condemnation from Spanish fans, so..."

"So it's impossible for Spain to support the captain, right!"

Gama sighed helplessly.

Mr. A, "Oh, you understand."

"Understood? Of course I understand~~~"

"Marca" said: Ronaldo responded to those Mallorca fans who insulted him in this way, but it may cause more trouble.

"Aspen" said: It is impossible for such Ronaldo to win the award because he insulted the fans.

…………

Oh, that’s not to say, the Portuguese domestic media not only did not help to promote their own captain at this time, but instead used lace and gossip to hype Ronaldo’s past, which made Gama really hard to understand.

When Ronaldo was still playing for Manchester United, he bought a Ferrari 599GTB sports car. On January 2009, 1, Ronaldo who drove this car to training suffered a car accident. Later he sold the car to a Portuguese A businessman, when the new owner checked in the car, the car spontaneously ignited, so the Portuguese media used "the haunting incident of Ronaldo's luxury sports car" to exaggerate the incident, which made everyone go to watch, making people borrowing the European Cup crown The C Ronaldo group that is being promoted is very embarrassing.

In contrast, compared with Messi, who has been fully promoted by the Argentine and Spanish media, Ronaldo, who has only won the 2008 Ballon d'Or so far, seems to be at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.Originally relying on the European Cup and under the premise that Real Madrid overwhelmed Barcelona to dominate La Liga, Ronaldo, who had a greatly increased chance of winning, made people feel that he had no advantage at all.

"Well, anyway, congratulations."

"I'm just running with you."

"No, you who can survive the trough and return to the peak of football are more worthy of our respect."

"Thank you."

At this time, the background sound came out again, "I said a long time ago that you are the best in the world..."

Then there was a suspicious silence on the other end of the phone...

Jia Ma hung up the phone and muttered in a low voice, "It's too much, I just know how to stimulate a bachelor~~"

…………

"What a mess!"

Jia Ma rolled on the sofa, "Anyway, I don't want to ask for leave, so I won't go if I don't."

The reason why Gama made such a fuss is actually because on January 7, the 2012 Golden Globe Award ceremony will be held at the Zurich International Convention and Exhibition Center in Switzerland. Gama, who was selected as the best team, has already received the invitation letter for the ceremony. But, the point is this. However, Liverpool has an FA Cup game to play on January 7th. He has to ask for leave. First of all, whether the coach grants leave or not is one thing. On the other hand, Jiama thinks it is quite meaningless. , don't really want to go.

"Go, why not go?"

Agostinho rolled his eyes and attacked, "This is the best chance to gain fame, and we must go."

"I have a game!"

Gama rolled his eyes back.

"Tsk, if Liverpool can't even win a League Two team like Mansfield without you, then what are they still alive for?"

Agostinho fired back viciously.

"Hey, how do you talk?"

"That's all."

Old Tiha snorted angrily, and took out the phone directly, "Are you talking or me?"

"Say what, to whom?"

Gama sat up alertly.

"Rodgers."

"Hello!!!"

"Okay, let me tell you."

Before Gama could react, Fat Tiha ran out onto the terrace with a nimble movement that didn't match his chubby figure at all, and went to make a phone call.

Half up, Jia Ma's outstretched hand fell powerlessly, and was fixed there in a very strange posture.

Qiongna, who came out of the kitchen, poked Gama's waist curiously, and Gama fell on the sofa with a 'slap'.

"What's going on here?"

Joanna looked curious.

"...If the old Tiha had such flexibility back then, he would definitely not have retired so early~~~"

Gama muttered this.

"Shiko!"

"Joanna, will you accompany me to Zurich?"

"...don't go!"

Joanna glared at Gama with the look of 'Why are you an idiot again'.

"why?"

Jia Ma, who pretended to be wronged, blinked and acted cute.

"Aren't you chasing Rihari? Isn't this a good opportunity to show your face?"

Joanna was so angry that she had the urge to kill Gama.

"Uh this, haha, haha..."

…………

"idiot!"

This is three people in unison, no need to explain who it is!

Gama: m(__)m
