Tang Zheng's award to the 2009 South American Footballer of the Year was both unexpected and expected. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Like winning the European Golden Boy Award, Tang Zheng, who won the South American Footballer of the Year, has a certain amount of controversy, but the Argentine media and some influential media in South America also believe that Tang Zheng meets the requirements.

The Copa Libertadores, which symbolizes the highest level of South American club football, is not as cross-season as the Champions League, this event starts and ends in the first half of the year, and the league reference value in the second half of the year is not large, and the performance of the players who play in South America in 2009, including the Mexican league, is not stable enough, and if two people are judged in the first and second half of the year, Tang Zheng's election has become logical.

It's just that Colombian fans are a little nervous, they think that Falcao's performance is better than Tang Zheng, and without his goal, River Plate would not have won the final double.

In fact, who is the biggest contributor to River Plate's double win, the media and fans know best.

Tang Zheng, as a rare full-time king of River Plate, played much more time than Falcao, and when Falcao was absent due to injury, it was Tang Zheng's outstanding performance that helped River Plate win the game, especially in the knockout stage of the Copa Libertadores in 2009, Tang Zheng's goals were key goals, much more important than Falcao's goals.

At the same time, the official website of the South American Football Federation, the official website of the Argentine Football Federation, and the official website of River Plate announced that Tang Zheng was elected as the South American Footballer of the Year selected by Uruguay's "El Nacional".

In modern society, information spreads very quickly.

The end of each year is the best selection stage, and as a South American footballer of the year at the same level as the European Ballon d'Or, it is natural that he will receive media attention from all continents.

When Tang Zheng was named South American Footballer of the Year, the Chinese media and fans were once again one of the most excited groups in the world.

He won the European Golden Boy Award in mid-December, signed a contract with Nike, the world's top sports brand, and now became the South American Footballer of the Year, which is really a surprise!

There is no doubt that Tang Zheng has become the focus of the media again.

Let's not talk about whether Tang Zheng's reasons and basis for winning the South American Footballer of the Year are sufficient, at least he has made history.

He was awarded the Footballer of the Year award, and he was the first non-American player since the birth of the Footballer of the Year.

From ancient times to the present, any first person will be recorded by history, and the same is true of Tang Zheng.

What makes the Chinese media and fans even more excited is that Tang Zheng won the European Golden Boy Award and the South American Footballer of the Year awards in the past 2009, which is completely impossible to happen at the same time under normal circumstances.

Because South American footballer of the year will not consider South American players who play in Europe, it is understandable why the world's top players such as Messi and Kaka are not shortlisted for the South American footballer of the year.

It can only be said that Tang Zheng's performance in the six months of River Plate and Dortmund was too outstanding.

When Tang Zheng flew to Montevideo, not only the Chinese and American media were frantically hyped, but even the European media, especially the German media.

In the past, the "Clarion", which had a good cooperative relationship with Tang Zheng and River Plate in Buenos Aires, immediately congratulated on its official website: "The selection of the South American Footballer of the Year 2009 is fair and just, so Don's election is well deserved! His contribution in the past 2009 can never be ignored, first leading River Plate to win three consecutive league championships, and then helping River Plate win the Copa Libertadores championship after a 12-year absence. I believe that many fans who read this newspaper have even forgotten what happened at that time...... Making history is always controversial, but I want to ...... Don's election will definitely be effective! Congratulations!"

Even the "Ole Daily", which has always been against Tang Zheng and River Plate, rarely congratulated Tang Zheng on his election as the South American Footballer on the official website, although it is only a short text of congratulations, but it is not difficult to see that "Ole Daily" supports Tang Zheng, after all, they have the right to vote.

The rigorous German newspaper "Bild" was particularly surprised: "This year's selection of the South American Footballer of the Year is really surprising, and it is incredible that Don, who has just won the European Golden Boy Award, should be awarded the South American Footballer of the Year, which only allows players who play for South American clubs......

During the European Golden Boy Award, the "Milan Sports Newspaper", which had an unpleasant time with Tang Zheng, said on its official website: "The South American Footballer of the Year selected by Uruguay's "Nation Newspaper" is really disappointing, and it is clear that players who play in Europe are not allowed to participate in the selection, why Tang, who was elected to the European Golden Boy Award this year, will be crowned South American Footballer......?

However, the Chinese media and the Argentine media are surprisingly unanimous, and they believe that Tang Zheng, the best player in the 2008-2009 season of the Arab League, is enough to win the 2009 South American Footballer of the Year with his resume in the first half of the year, so he is naturally elected.

As for those who are naysay, it can only be said that the grapes that cannot be eaten are sour.

Tang Zheng's mentor Simeone said in an interview with the Clarion: "Some people question Don winning the South American Footballer of the Year? Then I can only say that he is a football amateur!"

There is no basis, which just shows that Simeone has a good reason.

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp supported his disciples on vacation: "The European Golden Boy award is a matter of course for Don, and the same is true for the South American Footballer of the Year, if it wasn't for his fantastic first half at River Plate, we wouldn't have signed him, and I'm sure Bayern Munich did the same with Bayern Munich." ”

Even Falcao, who lost to Tang Zheng of the South American Footballer of the Year, said without complaint: "Almost everyone thinks that it is unreasonable for Tang to win the South American Footballer of the Year, but I want to say that anyone who follows the dynamics of South American football knows that no one has outperformed Tang in 2009, of course...... Including me!"

On the morning of the 3rd local time in South America, Tang Zheng received the volley moment trophy symbolizing the South American footballer in the hands of editor-in-chief Aguile Castillo at a press conference held by Uruguay's "El Nacional".

The flash lights at the press conference appeared frequently, but Tang Zheng, who attended many press conferences this winter, was very accustomed to it, and he calmly smiled at the camera.

As is customary, Tang Zheng ended his traditional press conference, as he did when he was elected to the European Golden Boy Award at the end of last year, and gave an exclusive interview to The Nation.

In this regard, Tang Zheng was very cooperative.

In the face of many media doubts talked about by the newspaper Nation, he grinned and said: "From the moment of glory, any selection will have controversy, just like winning the European Golden Boy Award, there are constant doubts, but I am the winner! Our country's martial arts novels used to say that where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, which is eternal, but then again, I was really surprised to be elected as the South American Footballer of the Year, you must know that I didn't even enter the top three in last year's South American Footballer of the Year, which is really a fantastic annual ......"

It didn't take long for the official website of FIFA and the official website of the AFC to quote Tang Zheng's description in an interview with the "Nation": Congratulations to the Chinese Tang for a fantastic 2009, and hope that he will create another brilliant year in the next 2010.

What is strange is that the AFC and FIFA both reposted the content of Tang Zheng's election as the South American Footballer of the Year, and the Chinese Football Association, like the football associations of other countries, turned a blind eye to the glory of its own players abroad.

Xie Yalong, who was enjoying the holiday, was very depressed, and he was very excited because of Gao Hongbo's good results last year, but what he didn't expect was that Tang Zheng won high personal glory in Europe and South America one after another, which was undoubtedly a resounding slap in his face.

Now not only Asian countries are laughing at the Chinese Football Association, but even the whole world is watching the joke.

Of course, many Asian countries are still very grateful to Xie Yalong, if it weren't for his 'righteous deeds', it is estimated that their national team would have had a very hard time facing the Chinese team.

Now, so-easy!

At the same time, the official website of the Chinese Football Association was attacked by a hacker named 'Xiaolinzi'.

After being interviewed by the newspaper Nation, Tang Zheng was about to return to Argentina, but his mentor Simone's family was on vacation, so he had no choice but to take a flight back to Dortmund from Montevideo that afternoon.

This time is very busy, there is no systematic training at all, Tang Zheng can feel that the sensitivity of his body has decreased a little compared to the past, and he must return his body to the best state before the team training camp.

In addition, the planned learning must be completed, otherwise there will be no extra time to learn once the second half of the league starts.

Arriving in Dortmund on the evening of January 4, just five days before the team's regrouping at the end of the winter break.

However, the rest of the time is just right for Tang Zheng, he can allocate the time reasonably, train in the morning, and learn to drive in the afternoon.

The Stobelari Training Center is still in the stage of discontinuation, and Tang Zheng has no way to carry out it at the training base, so he chooses running, sit-ups and push-ups for recovery training.

In addition, it is much easier to go to driving school, the theory test was passed before Christmas, and now he only needs to take first aid lessons and hit the road to get his driver's license.

The first aid course is simple, adding up to about eight hours.

But the trouble is the practice before the road test, and if you make a mistake, you will be re-timed.

Fortunately, Tang Zheng's comprehension ability is good, and the coach sitting in the co-pilot is a Dortmund fan, very enthusiastic, and will always conduct in-depth research on Tang Zheng's mistakes, so his progress is very fast.

After three days, he finally completed the task ahead of schedule.

Finally, there is the appointment test.

The population of Dortmund is not large, and Tang Zheng is a local celebrity in Dortmund, so he has a certain priority.

Of course, he only has priority and no privileges, Germany's driver's license test can be said to be the most rigorous country on the planet, and safety awareness is higher than driving technology, but Tang Zheng's caution on the field extends well to driving, so his road test is a pass.
