The auditorium below in this hall is full of professionals from the world of football. There are many club managers and even presidents, football bigwigs, and many media reporters.

Everyone gathers here to witness the birth of the 2009 European Footballer of the Year.

Now these candidates are sitting in the first row of the auditorium. Many media reporters are pointing their cameras at them and pressing the shutter frantically.

The hosts on the rostrum were also introducing the candidates for the European Footballer of the Year in detail. Every time they introduced one, the on-site camera lens would focus on that person, giving him a close-up of his face, making the scene and in front of the TV Anyone can clearly see this one after choosing.

Now appearing on the big screen is the first candidate - Eto'o!

African Cameroon star Cheetah Eto'o performed very well for Barcelona in the first half of this year. He is one of the best forwards in world football. In the first half, he helped Barcelona a lot.

Moreover, in the second half of the year, he swapped clubs with Ibrahimovic and joined Inter Milan. After arriving at Inter Milan, he was reused by Jose Mourinho and became the team's main center, playing a key role for International Milan. The Milan club has made great contributions and is now the top scorer in Serie A.

Eto'o's performance this year was really, really outstanding, and it makes sense for him to be selected.

But there are also many people who think Eto'o should not be selected, because there are many people who perform better than him. Cristiano Ronaldo mentioned one yesterday, and that is Frank Ribe, the current top star of Manchester United. inside.

However, when the host introduced Eto'o's data, thunderous applause still broke out.

Suddenly a voice came from Zhong Cheng's ear: "Luo Ya, do you think he should be selected?"

Zhong Cheng knew that the speaker was Alex Ferguson without turning his head. He was too familiar with this voice. And before he came, he knew that Alex Ferguson was sitting next to him.

When Zhong Cheng saw Alex Ferguson, he immediately said: "Don't try to take advantage of our club Lewandowski, we will not sell him to you."

Hearing this, Alex Ferguson smiled bitterly. He really had never thought about talking to Zhong Cheng about this matter. He was also very helpless in his heart. When did he have such an image in Zhong Cheng's mind?

At this time, hearing Alex Ferguson's question, Zhong Cheng said calmly: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether he is selected or not! This selection is actually just a competition between Chris and Messi, and everyone else is a supporting role!"

Alex Ferguson smiled bitterly, but he was speechless.

Suddenly, Alex Ferguson felt that Zhong Cheng really had the potential to have a poisonous tongue, and every word he said struck a chord instantly.

Alex Ferguson asked again: "So, Mr. Loya, do you think Frank should be selected for this final list of no candidates?"

Zhong Cheng could see that Alex Ferguson was complaining about Frank Ribery.

However, Zhong Cheng still asked: "Frank...Ribery?"

Alex Ferguson was slightly startled and smiled bitterly. Has this guy even forgotten Frank Ribery? Alex Ferguson nodded as expected.

Zhong Cheng immediately said with a straight face: "It doesn't matter whether he is selected or not. Didn't I say it before? This is Chris and Messi's rivalry. Everyone else is scum!"

Alex Ferguson's breath was stagnant, and he didn't know what to say for a moment!

This guy Zhong Cheng really has the potential for a poisonous tongue. These words directly penetrated Alex Ferguson's heart!

Alex Ferguson was so angry that he didn't look like he was talking to Zhong Cheng anymore.

He saw Alex Ferguson turning his head to the other side, as if ignoring him. The corners of Zhong Cheng's mouth raised slightly, and his ears were indeed clear now.

Now Zhong Cheng immediately set his sights on the rostrum, and the supporters had now introduced the second candidate list.

The face of the second candidate also appeared on the big screen at the scene-Harvey!

Yes, the second candidate is Xavi from FC Barcelona. To be honest, Xavi’s performance this year is very good. In fact, Xavi’s performance in Barcelona is very good every year. He is a member of FC Barcelona. The core of the midfield.

Many people believe that Xavi deserves the award more than Leo Messi. For Barcelona, ​​Xavi is more important than Leo Messi.

Now Barcelona's head coach Guardiola once said this.

However, these people now think that Leo Messi is more powerful and awesome because Leo Messi has a lot of highlights, while Xavi doesn't have many highlights. But Harvey's position determines that he will not have too many bright performances, but once he is missing, Barcelona will have problems.

Many people think that Xavi is Barcelona's number one brother.

However, many people today know Harvey as a supporting character.

Soon the host finished introducing the second candidate, and the third candidate also appeared. This one is Leo Messi.

Yes, the third one is also from FC Barcelona.

The media reporters at the scene had too many introductions to Leo Messi. A lot of data introductions were prepared at the scene, and there were also many video introductions, all of which were playing Leo Messi’s performance. The beautiful goals scored this year are constantly being played.

People at the scene nodded when they saw Leo Messi's goal. This performance is really amazing!

Many people at the scene gave thunderous applause, and some even said that the European Footballer Award for several years must belong to Leo Messi.

Soon the introduction of Leo Messi passed.

Next came the fourth candidate, and soon the face of this candidate appeared on the big screen - Luka Modric!

This player was still a player of Leeds United in the Premier League in the first half of this year. He followed the players of Leeds United to win the UEFA Champions League last season. His performance was very eye-catching. He is Leeds United's The core of the team's midfielder not only provided many exquisite assists, but also took many shots, most of which were long-range shots.

What was played on the big screen at the scene was almost a collection of Luka Modric's long-range shots.

Many people at the scene were fascinated to watch, Luka Modric's long-range shooting skills are really too strong.

To be honest, many people at the scene thought that if Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were not available, Luka Modric would be the one who should win the award.

Many people at the scene felt sorry for Luka Modric.

This is also a very, very good talent.

Alex Ferguson couldn't help but turn his head and look at Zhong Cheng. This player was once the core ace of Leeds United. Why did this guy sell this player? Why didn't you notify me when it was going to be sold? If Lex Ferguson informs him, this Luka Modric is now a player of the Red Devils Manchester United.

Huh, damn madman Loya is so narrow-minded.

The last candidate was introduced at the scene. His name was no mystery, it was Cristiano Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo's wonderful performance this year was immediately replayed on the big screen at the scene. To be honest, Cristiano Ronaldo's performance was really great. Many people at the scene were shocked when they saw the video playback. The visual impact was still very powerful.

Cristiano Ronaldo's performance is really nothing to say.

Cristiano Ronaldo led Leeds United to the UEFA Champions League title last season in the first half of the year. His performance in the second half of the season was also very good. He scored goals one after another and saved Leeds United one after another. His performance was outstanding. .

Many people at the scene are very confused now. Who won this award?

Because the voting has been completed before the voting, the results of the voting are being tallied.

The top three players will all go on stage and come to the center of the stage. , the name of the winner will be announced at the end.

At this time, Alex Ferguson suddenly turned to Zhong Cheng and said: "Do you think it is better for our Manchester United team to introduce Edin Dzeko or Mario Gomez?"

Zhong Cheng was slightly startled, Alex Ferguson's thinking was too out of the ordinary!

This is the European Footballer's Award Ceremony. This guy's thoughts have actually drifted to the winter transfer. Zhong Cheng is also a little speechless.

Zhong Cheng said: "I have told you the characteristics of these two people. You should have a choice. Otherwise, wouldn't it be better if you introduced both of them? Is there any need to be so entangled?"

Alex Ferguson shook his head slightly and said: "You think I haven't thought about it, but Bayern Munich is only willing to sell one player!"

Zhong Cheng suddenly understood, immediately turned his head, stared at Alex Ferguson with a serious face, and asked: "Then who are you going to choose?"

Alex Ferguson was about to open his mouth to say that name, but as soon as he saw Zhong Cheng's eyes, he immediately stopped and said, "I haven't thought about it yet!"

Zhong Cheng chuckled and said, "It's a secret, right?"

Alex Ferguson immediately waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, it's nothing. I didn't discuss this with you, so why should I keep it a secret?"

As he spoke, Alex Ferguson turned his attention to other places.

Seeing this, Zhong Cheng shook his head slightly and said that it was not a secret, your reaction had already betrayed you.

At this time, the deputy editor of "French Football" announced the fourth and fifth candidates. They were Xavi and Eto'o, which meant that the top three were Luka Modric and Leo Mei. West and Cristiano Ronaldo.
