Entering December in 2002, the two most prestigious awards in world football, the European Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year, were announced one after another.

These two trophies, which symbolize the highest honor for players, attracted the attention of media and fans all over the world. For a time, major newspapers gave their own predictions and gossip.

This year is the year of the World Cup. According to the usual practice, the award is likely to be awarded to the dazzling stars in the World Cup, the Brazilian twins Ronaldo and Roberto Carlos.

In fact, this is also the case. A reporter stayed in Madrid and successfully photographed the editor-in-chief of "French Football" magazine, Pfenna Steele, but it is not known which one can finally win the championship.

Not long after, the Ballon d'Or first announced the top ten players in the selection. Ronaldo won the Ballon d'Or with 169 votes, beating his teammate Carlos with 145 votes. The gap between the two is not obvious.

Compared with last year, Wang Feng's ranking has risen a lot, beating Henry, Raul, Rivaldo and others, ranking sixth with 57 votes, but still unable to compete with Kahn, Zidane and Ballack in front, Obviously the weight of the Europa League is still too small.

"One Sword Sovereign"

Although the "eyes and ears" of the club had known the result in advance, Wang Feng couldn't hide his disappointment, but he believed that he was not far away from this supreme honor!

After winning the award, Ronaldo called Wang Feng soon. Their relationship did not end with Ronnie's departure. Ronnie would often call Wang Feng and complain to him about the complicated locker room situation. Wang Feng Because of this, I learned a lot of Real Madrid secrets.

Of course, all of this is because Wang Feng is a qualified listener and has always kept his mouth shut in front of the media and irrelevant people. He had gained Ronnie's trust as early as the conflict between Ronnie and Cooper.

"Man, I won the Ballon d'Or again." Ronaldo on the phone seemed to be showing off his exquisite work, "and Florentino said that the World Footballer is also mine."

"Oh, congratulations." Wang Feng said with a sour taste, "Haha, Wang, I knew that you would not be reconciled with your personality. You must practice more at the training base now." Ronaldo laughed.

"But it doesn't matter. If you can help Inter Milan win the Champions League this year, then next year's award is a certainty. It's a pity that Real Madrid won't let you do so easily."

"Then let's see the real chapter in the final." Wang Feng said viciously. According to the competition system, if the two teams are not eliminated, it is very likely that they will meet in the final.

"By the way, do you have any idea to come to Galaxy Battleship? With your current status, you are already fully worthy of the slogan of being a superstar last year."

"Didn't you say that Real Madrid's signing target next summer is Manchester United's David Beckham?"

"The original plan was like this. Beckham's strength and commercial value are indeed very high, but you are not far behind. More importantly, you are still very young, so Florentino asked me to listen to your tone."

To be honest, Wang Feng was a little moved. Since Florentino started building the Galacticos, Real Madrid's influence has rapidly expanded. Coupled with its rich background, it can be said that it is second to none among all European football clubs.

But when he thought of the complex dressing room full of big names, Wang Feng shuddered, "Forget it, I don't want to get together with you veterans."

Ronnie couldn't laugh or cry, and then he said solemnly: "By the way, I heard that Barcelona has plans to buy you, and the price will be very high. That's why Florentino asked me to lobby you."

"You know, I don't have a good opinion of Barcelona, ​​so I want you to think carefully, I don't think Barcelona is a good home."

.........

In the 13th round of Serie A, Inter Milan played against Lazio at home. The Inter Milan players, who had a week's respite, recovered well.

The stimulated Wang Feng was very aggressive. In just 2 minutes of the game, he tried a long shot from outside the penalty area of ​​the visiting team. The ball was 40 meters away from the goal. After leaving Lazio's defense, he was in a cold sweat.

But Lazio is not a sheep at the mercy of others. Seeing Inter Milan's oppressive attack, they took the initiative to shrink the defense line, and even planned a high-quality defensive counterattack in the 17th minute. Corradi almost pierced through Inter Milan's goal. .

Facing the shrinking defensive line, Wang Feng still wanted to try his consecutive dribbles against Brescia in the last round, but it was a pity that Lazio's defense was obviously stronger. In the end, Negro snatched the ball from Wang Feng's feet.

While retreating quickly, Wang Feng gave his teammates an apologetic look. It seemed that he was not strong enough to face all the defenses by himself, but he did feel the improvement in strength, and even had a premonition in his heart, as long as he continued to practice , this kind of thing is not impossible!

Both sides failed to score in the first half of the game. After changing sides to fight again, Inter Milan's defense made a fatal mistake. Lazio's Simeone hoisted the ball into the penalty area. Lopez quickly inserted the ball and got the ball. Cole Doba followed ~lightnovelpub.net~ but he evaded the defense with a smash.

At this time, there was no one in this area to defend, so that Lopez shot easily.

"Hey, Inter Milan shouldn't have lost the ball. Cordoba got rid of it too easily, and there was no one around to help defend."

"Hey, hey! What's going on? Cordoba and Cannavaro seemed to be arguing about something. They had some physical contact and shoving. Is there an internal quarrel?"

Everyone in Inter Milan hurriedly came to separate them. The camera captured Cooper with a livid complexion on the coaching bench in good time. He reacted quickly, replacing Cordoba who made a direct mistake, and replaced him with Parcel. Come Squaw.

Wang Feng was also very surprised. He knew that the relationship between the two was not good, but he didn't expect that the swords would become tense on the field. Cordoba should blame Cannavaro for not being able to make up for the ball just now.

It seems that the headlines on the front pages of the major newspapers will become very exciting again tomorrow. The front line is constantly injured, and the defense line is still infighting.

The distracted crowd failed to create a miracle. In the end, Inter Milan lost to Lazio 0:1, swallowing the bitter fruit of the second defeat in the league.

.........

Facing the invitation of FIFA's annual awards ceremony, Wang Feng was really not in the mood to attend again, so he asked Balmond to decline the invitation on the grounds that the team was at a critical moment and had no time to get away.

Naturally, he will not be the protagonist in this grand event. Ronaldo won the World Player of the Year without accident, German goalkeeper Kahn won the silver award, and Zidane won the bronze award by virtue of the Champions League champion seat.

Wang Feng's ranking went even further, rising from 11th place last year to 6th place. Obviously, many judges still recognized his double crown and European Golden Boot honors last season.
