"I'm sorry, I'm back again!"

Dressed in a tailor-made suit from his ready-to-wear store, Gao Han gently held the golden envelope containing the list of winners of the first FIFA Ballon d'Or with both hands, and walked up to the podium from behind the scenes, and the television sets watching the live broadcast in more than 150 countries and regions around the world were broadcasting his big close-up.

His suit and tie were made for him in his own store, and he also appeared in front of all the audiences.

All the guests at the scene were completely amused by his opening remarks and laughed all over the room.

Walking on the podium for the second time, Gao Han no longer had the previous caution and seemed to be at ease, after all, he knew most of the people present, and he was the guest of honor, and it was his job to enliven the atmosphere.

So, walking to the microphone, he held up the golden envelope towards the guest seat, gently placed it on the podium, and patted it again, signaling that everyone should nag first, don't unveil the cup so quickly.

This immediately made the audience burst into laughter.

"I remember, just now, I just got off the plane, came to the venue, and was in a hurry to attend the head coach's symposium, and many media reporters blocked the door and asked me, Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, who do you think is more worthy of the award?"

"I was in a hurry, how do you answer?"

Seeing Gao Han's innocent expression of being helpless and lying down and being shot, there was another burst of laughter at the scene.

This is indeed a very difficult question to answer, difficult enough to compare with the epic problem of who to save first when a beautiful girlfriend and her mother fall into the water at the same time, because no matter how you answer it, Gao Han is not a person.

So, I was in a hurry, I glared at them directly, snorted coldly, and entered the arena very angrily. ”

These words immediately caused the audience to burst into laughter, followed by thunderous applause and cheers.

Is it too witty?

"Actually, I have to say, it's a very, very difficult question to answer, because they're both some of the best superstars in football today, and they're super capable individually, and I think it's hard for anyone to say for sure who's better because there's never been a specific measure. ”

Everyone present nodded tacitly, and it was true.

"Messi is a super talent, the first time I saw him, I was very sure that he was going to be the top superstar, and I remember very clearly, I told him, I said, don't rush, take your time, the world is yours sooner or later. ”

Gao Han's words once again won applause from the audience.

The live TV camera also specially switched to Messi in the guest seat, the Argentine clasped his hands together, and looked very grateful to Gao Han, so that people could see the respect and love for Gao Han in his eyes at a glance.

"I'm not talking about this today, but I want to say that whoever you are, you can see at a glance that Messi has otherworldly talent, he is like a god from an alien planet, he can do almost anything, he can surpass all the tactical rules on the football field, he is born to be the best and best footballer. ”

Gao Han's words were very sincere, and there was deafening applause again.

"I've worked with Cristiano Ronaldo longer than I did with Messi for a year, and I admired him when he was a little-known youngster in the Sporting Lisbon Academy, because he had a lot of talent and amazing speed, but I would say he's an earthling. ”

Everyone present was surprised by Gao Han's words, is he belittleing Cristiano Ronaldo and exalting Messi?

When he heard Gao Han's words, Cristiano Ronaldo's face also became not very good-looking.

"But in my 11 years in charge, he was the hardest working and hardest working player I've ever seen, before he became famous, and after he became famous, he was even more strict with himself, and I can't imagine a person who can be as diligent as he is, then nothing in the world can be difficult for him. ”

"He's a perfect footballer, he's got the body and the mind of an earthling, and many people can't imagine that behind his constant goals, it's his training day after day, year after year, that he never stops? ”

There was once again deafening applause at the scene, no less than what had been given to Messi before.

In front of the live TV camera, Cristiano Ronaldo's eyes were red, obviously moved.

He knew that he had misunderstood Gao Han just now.

"It's very special for me to be here tonight to present this award, and I want to say to Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo that you are the best and I am very proud of what you have achieved today. ”

"No matter who wins this award tonight, you all deserve it, you all deserve it, and you don't need to regret or even be sad if you don't get it, because in the decades of history of professional football, you have all written your name and left your glorious footprints. ”

"We miss Pele, we miss Maradona, we miss Ronaldo, we miss Zinedine Zidane, not only because of the achievements and honors they have achieved in their football career, but more importantly, because they have left a wonderful performance on the football field, which has become the best memory for all fans. ”

"Trust me, so do you!"

There was an unprecedented burst of applause at the scene, and it was obvious that everyone was moved by Gao Han's words.

Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, who is better and who deserves the award is a topic of controversy in the media, fans, and even in the football circle.

But now, as Gao Han, who once coached two superstars at the same time, gave the answer.

That is, when it comes to their level, there is no need to compare at all, and there is no way to distinguish between the superior and the inferior.

What can stop them, who can defeat them, will only be time.

Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo could also feel the love of Gao Han, so even when everyone else sat down, they were still standing.

Gao Han also understood what they meant, and directly opened the golden envelope on the table, took out the paper card, and announced the name on the paper card without the slightest hesitation.

"Cristiano Ronaldo!"

The audience erupted in a round of applause.

The Portuguese were pleasantly surprised, but immediately turned around and walked past the guests and walked to Messi's side.

Messi was also very generous, smiling and congratulating Cristiano Ronaldo, and the two hugged hard.

After thanking Messi, the Portuguese accepted the congratulations of the guests, teammates and friends along the way, ran quickly to the podium, and directly hugged his mentor Gao Han.

On the big screen behind the podium, the final vote rate was also played at this time, and the vote rate between Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo was very close, only 0.2 percent apart, which shows how fierce the competition is.

Messi had the advantage in terms of the votes of the national team manager and captain, but Cristiano Ronaldo was ahead in the media votes, and in the end, Cristiano Ronaldo was slightly ahead.

As for Barcelona's midfielder Andres Iniesta, he lost heavily in the competition and could only finish third.

After the Portuguese let go of Gao Han's embrace, his eyes were already full of tears, and when he received the Golden Ball trophy from Gao Han's hand, he hugged Gao Han again with sobs and did not let go for a long time.

Everyone can see that this time he is indeed moved by his true feelings.

After finally calming down, the Portuguese walked to the podium and placed the trophy on top of it.

"Thank you very much to everyone who voted, thank you all for your support and recognition. His voice was visibly choked.

"It's my first time winning the FIFA Ballon d'Or, but I'm sure it won't be the last, I'm going to train harder, keep improving myself and try for next year, the year after...... I came here every year after that to win the Golden Globe. ”

Hearing the words of the Portuguese on the spot, there was applause again, great masters!

"The past year has been a year that I will never forget, I came from Serie A to the unfamiliar Premier League, my team-mates and I won all the trophies we could, it was a wonderful moment, I would like to thank all my team-mates for their support and trust in me, and I hope we can continue to work hard to win the Champions League this year!"

Cristiano Ronaldo's words were once again met with a round of applause.

In fact, Manchester City are indeed the favourites in the Champions League this season.

"I want to thank my family, my mother and sister, my children, my friends, and Jorge Mendes, but I have to give a special thank you to my boss, my most respected manager, Mr. Gao Han. ”

Cristiano Ronaldo said this, turned around and pointed to Gao Han beside him.

"Tonight, here in front of everyone in the world, I'm going to tell him that you're the best manager in the world!"

There was a burst of applause at the scene, and after the Portuguese shouted these words, they turned around again and hugged Gao Han vigorously, constantly thanking Gao Han for his help and trust.

The live TV camera also keenly captured the close-up of the master and apprentice, and Gao Han's eyes were obviously filled with tears, looking very moved and relieved.

And everyone in the audience also gave them the warmest applause of the night.

Tonight's top prize was taken away by Cristiano Ronaldo, but in fact, Gao Han was the undisputed biggest winner tonight, not only because he won the inaugural Men's Coach of the Year award, but also because the two stars he cultivated would finally meet in the final of the first Ballon d'Or.

Although Messi has only played under Gao Han for one year, the Argentine superstar has told everyone more than once that Gao Han has given him great help, including his choice to leave the Premier League and return to Barcelona, all of which came from Gao Han's advice, which has created his status as the world's top superstar today.

But Gao Han's outstanding works in the past decade are obviously not only Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, but also Cannavaro, Ronaldinho and Kaka, who are also world footballers, not to mention the world's top superstars such as Deco, Torres, Villa, Lampard, Terry, Adriano, Aguero, Ribery, Robben and Neuer.

City now have world-class superstars such as Karim Benzema, Alexis Sanchez, David Silva, Luka Modric, Xavi Martinez, Maceslano and Petr Cech.

It can be said that the world football in the past ten years has been a glorious decade for the high cold.

I'm sorry, I have something to do today, just returned.
