Public opinion was not detonated for no reason, it was really this Club World Cup final that gave fans too much shock.

The Toyota Cup has a long history and a very good reputation, and is an important way for South American football and European football to exchange and compete.

In the historical results of the Toyota Cup, both European teams and South American teams have not been able to achieve one-sided results, and the equality of strength naturally makes the confrontation extremely exciting, and the championship honor of the Toyota Cup is also a very important honor.

However, with the rapid development of football marketization, the developed economic situation in Europe has made the strength of Europe's top clubs grow by leaps and bounds, and at the same time, South American players also regard landing in Europe as the only way to develop their careers, which has led to the uneven development of European football and South American football at the club level.

In other words, there is a gradual gap in strength between South American and European clubs.

In such a historical context, even the Toyota Cup may gradually lose its confrontation and influence.

But FIFA slapped its ass and made the ugly decision to annex the Toyota Cup and merge it with the original Club World Cup into one competition.

Their wishful thinking is loud, but in fact they are completely destroying this historic event.

Take a look at the just-concluded Club World Cup final!

Copa Libertadores champion Internacional Brasil didn't even have the slightest resistance in front of the European champion Arsenal, and was brutally slaughtered, and it was not so easy to play such a scoreline, even against fish belly in their respective leagues.

Even so, the blood-beaten Brazil International is still far more than a notch better than the other teams participating in the Club World Cup.

So, what's the point of holding such a Club World Cup?

Sure, champions from other continents would cheer those fans, but what point would it be for European teams to make huge sacrifices and the game would be nothing to watch?

"Arsenal will face the devil when they return to the Premier League, and they have paid a lot of price for the Club World Cup!"

"Brazil International has been beaten into a dog, let alone other teams, how can FIFA be embarrassed to hold such a game with a shy face?"

"Just cancel the Club World Cup, or let FIFA play on its own, and the European champions will not be accompanied!"

"If Arsenal loses the Premier League title because of this, will FIFA compensate for it?"

"FIFA is a piece of shit!"

......

After the big discussion, some fans who watched the excitement couldn't help but scold FIFA.

FIFA has been overwhelmed by public opinion, and they never imagined that the good Club World Cup would be kicked like this.

Knowing that, they would have let the referee control the game.

The last Club World Cup was very good, Liverpool lost to Sao Paulo from Brazil, which shows that European football is not significantly ahead of South American football, and the confrontation between the two continents will still be very exciting.

However, they would never have imagined that one season later, everything would change!

Arsenal is too unreasonable, not to mention the game of winning Mexico America, after all, Arsenal is only a second-tier lineup, but in the final against Brazil International, it actually washed Brazil International like a thug, not to mention whether Brazil International wants to save face, where to put FIFA's face now?

Knowing this, they warned Arsenal in advance and asked them to restrain themselves appropriately!

Alas!

It's also that Brazil International itself is not angry, and it has no power to fight back in front of Arsenal, which is simply a shame to be thrown home!

In desperation, before Arsenal's plane back to London landed, FIFA had to hold a press conference to make some necessary clarifications on public opinion.

"The Club World Cup is a brand new competition and we hope that one day it will become a World Cup at club level, and we also hope that more teams will be involved in scoring goals and give the most wonderful visual feast to the fans around the world!"

"As for the big victory in the final of this Club World Cup, it can only be said that the strength of this Arsenal team is too good, but it cannot negate the efforts of Brazil International!"

"No matter what, we will continue to hold the Club World Cup, and I hope that fans around the world will pay more attention to the Club World Cup!"

......

After talking for a long time, there is actually only one sentence!

It's not that South American football can't work, it's just that Arsenal is too strong!

This is an example!

For FIFA's explanation, fans are no longer able to complain, although there is some truth in this, after all, Arsenal's strength is recognized, but more essentially, the Club World Cup is not friendly to European teams at all, and this fundamental issue is avoided by FIFA.

"If FIFA takes out all the income from the Club World Cup and rewards it to the Champions League winners, then the Champions League champions can barely be justified!"

"Don't think about it, FIFA can still give up the fat in your hands?"

"What a fucking FIFA!"

......

After the FIFA press conference, public opinion has stopped for a while, although there are still many people who habitually scold FIFA, but more people have turned their eyes to other places - who has so much spare time to scold FIFA every day......

At this time, after arriving in London with his teammates, Quaresma did not leave the airport at all, but flew directly to Switzerland.

He's going to FIFA's annual awards ceremony!

Although he has just complained to FIFA for a while because of the chicken ribs of the Club World Cup, he feels that the World Footballer is still quite fragrant.

Don't look at the public opinion about the prediction of the final winner before the selection of the European Golden Globe Awards, it is really lively for a while.

But with Quaresma winning the European Ballon d'Or by a huge margin, there is almost no suspense about the next World Footballer.

If Quaresma loses the title of World Footballer of the Year with such a big margin in the European Ballon d'Or selection, it can only show that FIFA is engaged in shady, and it is a shady scene that everyone knows.

FIFA is not stupid enough to risk the world's condemnation to engage in dirty methods, if Quaresma's advantage is small, then anything can happen, but Quaresma's advantage is so big, they don't dare to do it even if they want to.

So, Quaresma appeared in Switzerland this time with only one purpose, which was to attend the awards ceremony and then bring the World Footballer of the Year trophy back to London, and that's it.

Don't look at Zidane, Cannavaro, Henry, Ronaldo, etc., who compete with him, they are all top stars in world football, but under the dazzling light of Quaresma, only their die-hard fans will believe that their idol can get the World Footballer of the Year, and normal fans will never have such an idea.

Even the betting syndicates are unusually cautious about this selection, Quaresma's odds to win the World Footballer of the Year are outrageously low, while the odds of several other contenders are terrifying, if someone really buys them to beat Quaresma to win the title, and the result is true, then this is definitely a chance to get rich overnight.

So this time, compared to the selection of the European Golden Globe Awards, Quaresma is much more indifferent, as if he has seen through a lot of things, and even his iconic cynical smile seems to have something like a spring breeze.

After checking into the hotel, the paparazzi were already like smelling sharks, swarming in the hotel lobby, as long as Quaresma appeared, they would immediately put the microphone up, regardless of whether Quaresma's teeth could stand it or not.

But Quaresma is really not in the mood to deal with reporters now, and no one provokes him, who is he going to spray?

If someone stands up at this time to refute Quaresma's unworthiness to win the World Footballer of the Year award, then Quaresma must not mind spraying him with doubts about life.

But now Quaresma's award is simply the trend of the times, even if someone slanders him, he will not say it to his face, which is simply making himself uncomfortable.

So, Quaresma really enjoyed a quiet life in the hotel, and although he spent the afternoon in the hotel's gym, he still felt very comfortable...... Because I don't have those teasers around......

In the evening, Quaresma dressed up in a formal suit that he would not normally wear, and was guided by FIFA staff to the Zurich Opera House, where the awards ceremony was held.

The annual awards ceremony is the highlight of the year for FIFA, and it attracts far more attention than the Club World Cup.

The scene has already been full of guests and guests, and as far as the eye can see, the big names who can cause the shock of world football abound, they talk and laugh with each other, and maybe a word and a glass of wine can decide the fate of a player.

Quaresma doesn't feel any pressure, and at his level, it's not easy to embarrass himself.

Not to mention that when their investments generate huge returns, they will be super-rich at a higher level than them, and then they will be under pressure in front of them.

The president of the Arsenal club came to the scene with Arsene Wenger, and as if at the European Ballon d'Or ceremony, the World Footballer of the Year was not only the crowning honour for Quaresma, but also for Arsenal.

As a candidate for World Footballer of the Year, Quaresma did not sit with them, but sat in the front row so that he could come to the stage to receive the award.

Coming to his own seat, Quaresma found that there were already people sitting on both sides, Zidane on the left who had no hair on the top of his head, and Cannavaro on the right, both of whom smiled at Quaresma at the same time.

Quaresma is certainly not going to turn people away, and these two players are indeed his favorite players, and they certainly won't be cold-hearted, even if they are now rivals.

That's right, Zinedine Zidane and Cannavaro are the other two candidates for World Footballer of the Year, while Henry has not been able to make it into the top three.

Zidane and Cannavaro also know that this time they are just the role of accompanying the prince to study, and with Quaresma's performance, it is impossible to lose the trophy.

If it weren't for the fear of offending FIFA, they wouldn't have come to accompany them!

"Your performance is really getting better and better, I think, in the next few years, no one can surpass you!"

Zidane smiled and praised Quaresma.

Cannavaro also nodded beside him, agreeing.

In the World Cup, they have all played against Quaresma, and naturally they have the deepest impression of Quaresma's strong dominance, at least at the moment no one in the entire world football has been able to break Quaresma's dominance.

Maybe Xiao Luo in his peak can compete with Quaresma, but who would have thought that the Brazilian elf would suddenly fall like a meteor, and his state will deteriorate, which is really regrettable.

If Ronaldo can maintain his form and turn world football into a rivalry between Ronaldo and Quaresma, it will undoubtedly be much more exciting.

Among the other new generation of stars, whether it is Kaka or Xiao Xiaoluo, they are all a big difference to Quaresma, and it is unlikely that Quaresma's status will be shaken in the short term.

Quaresma was naturally not moved by such a non-technical compliment, the group had long been overcrowded, and he had long been accustomed to it.

"Actually, that's what I thought!" Quaresmahaha laughed, seemingly arrogant, but with an unrivaled confidence.

Zidane and Cannavaro looked at each other, and they knew very well that Quaresma's momentum had become a reality, and unless there was another peerless figure, no one would be able to break Quaresma's rule.

After the three sat down, they chatted about interesting things in football, although Zidane has retired and Cannavaro has entered the end of his career, but the experience of the two can still give Quaresma some inspiration, after all, Quaresma still has a lot of room for improvement.

"Oh, by the way, Ricardo, do you have any thoughts on joining Real Madrid?" Suddenly, Cannavaro changed his tone and asked Quaresma with a smile.

Quaresma was stunned for a moment, and then realized that maybe Cannavaro was also on a Calderón mission.

It's not been a day or two for Real Madrid to have ideas about themselves, but no matter what kind of roundabout tactics Florentino and Calderón used now, Quaresma never agreed.

Chairman Calderón is not in a stable position, and he must want to bring himself to the Bernabeu Stadium to stabilize his position, so he spares no effort in his strategy.

A person tries to convince Quaresma, and Quaresma does not react;

The two men try to convince Quaresma, but Quaresma does not react;

But when everyone around him tried to convince Quaresma, Quaresma wouldn't react?

I'm afraid that Calderón now has such an attitude, and he believes that Quaresma will be convinced.

On the other side, although Zidane is not a descendant of Calderon, he also hopes that Real Madrid's results will be better, so he is also looking at Quaresma with an expectant gaze, waiting for Quaresma's answer.

Quaresma smiled softly, he was genuinely annoyed by the question.

He prefers to play quietly rather than thinking about which team he wants to transfer to.

As long as Arsenal doesn't do what they are sorry for, why should they leave?

Even if it was an extra tens of thousands of pounds a week, it would not be attractive to him at all.

As for the accolades, he can get them at Arsenal, so why go to other clubs!

Quaresma's smile made Cannavaro understand what he meant, and the Italian defender also smiled self-deprecatingly to ease his embarrassment.

At this moment, the music in the hall suddenly sounded, and Gullit, one of the three Dutch musketeers, walked on the stage with the famous beautiful host of the show, Attalie, and the award ceremony was ready to officially begin!

"Attalie is still pretty, isn't she?"

Cannavaro said with a smile, but his eyes were always fixed on the beautiful host on the stage.

Quaresma nodded, regardless of whether Cannavaro was a pig or not, but he was not wrong, Attalie was quite pretty.

On stage, Gullit and Attalie, as the hosts, were already talking about the opening remarks, introducing the guests, and the big screen was constantly giving shots of the guests, and at this time Quaresma realized that there were really many superstars who attended.

Ronaldo, Crespo, Pirlo, Klose, Matthaus, etc., although the award has nothing to do with them, their appearance at the award ceremony will still attract a lot of topicality.

"It seems that I am really the most pitiful, Zinedin you have won the World Footballer of the Year three times, and soon Ricardo you will also come to the stage to accept the award, only I have nothing!"

Cannavaro said with a hint of resentment, his tone sour enough to make Quaresma a little unbearable.

He never knew that Cannavaro had the potential to talk.

With such a grand awards ceremony and sitting in the front row, wouldn't you be able to sit quietly for a while?

Muttering, don't you feel embarrassed to be photographed on camera?

But Cannavaro was not wrong, the three people on the scene were indeed the most embarrassing for him.

Zinedine Zidane has won the World Footballer of the Year three times, and sitting here now feels more like enjoying the last glory, even if it doesn't hurt to win the World Footballer of the Year trophy.

But Cannavaro's status in world football is a bit far from Zidane.

Even though he is a first-class centre-back, who cares about a defender's performance but his own fans?

Now that Quaresma was destined to win the prize, his last hope was gone, so he could only look at Quaresma with envy.

Quaresma didn't need to comfort Cannavaro, because Cannavaro was just a feigned grudge and didn't know how to steal the fun.

To be in the top three of the World Footballer of the Year candidates as a defender is already something to be proud of, isn't it?

After the two hosts on stage had made the opening remarks, something happened that made Quaresma stunned, and the opera began to be performed on the stage......

This is the 16th edition of FIFA's awards ceremony, and today is also the 250th anniversary of Mozart's birth, so the theme of the award ceremony is set to "When Football Meets Mozart".

Quaresma thought it was a gimmick by FIFA, but who would have thought that they would really put on an opera at the awards ceremony!

I came to the awards ceremony, and I can still watch the opera for free?

Quaresma can't afford to complain!

This is obviously something that is not related to the wind and horses, and they can still get together alive, is this FIFA forcing football to give a little elegant grade?

He didn't think Mozart would like to play football......

I don't know what he's singing on stage, Quaresma is about to fall asleep, he doesn't have that artistic bacterium anyway!

Maybe Mereles might be interested here, after all, the artistic stuff is the same, and it is possible that Mereles can get a little inspiration from the opera to create rap!

Finally, by the time the opera was finished, Quaresma had long since lost his mind for a long time, and his spirit was in a trance.

Suddenly, he realized that one of his weaknesses was that if the opponent played an opera for himself before the game, then his form would definitely be affected, and then he would not play well on the court, and the opponent would have the possibility of winning.

couldn't help but laugh dumbly, so many super celebrities thought hard about how to defend themselves, but they were inadvertently discovered by themselves today.

It seems that in the future, I will have to stay away from such elegant things as opera.

In contrast, he thinks it's a little more fun to have a party that the animals are thinking about!

After the end of the opera, it finally entered the main topic of awards, and the first thing to be presented was naturally a series of awards related to the German World Cup that had been announced.

Quaresma took the stage along with Klose and Crespo to receive the World Cup Gold, Silver and Bronze Boot awards.

The Golden Boot is an honor that Quaresma has already gotten in his hands, but the trophy has not been taken away until this time, which really made Quaresma look forward to it for a long time.

The Yashin Award for Best Goalkeeper is naturally in Buffon's pocket, which no one can snatch.

Then, the Fair Play Award was awarded, and surprisingly, this time it was a double yolk egg, with Brazil and Spain winning at the same time.

Ronaldo took the stage to accept the award on behalf of the Brazilian Football Federation, and Spanish coach Aragonés and captain Raul also took the stage on behalf of Spain.

Don't look at Portugal to win the World Cup, but just in that match against the Netherlands, they didn't have a chance to win the fair play award!

Next, Quaresma also won the World Cup Golden Ball, which he also booked early.

The awards were interspersed with opera, and Quaresma's excitement could not be maintained, but when it came time to present the Team of the Year and the Most Improved Awards, Quaresma was still in the mood.

Portugal has seen a surge in points over the past year as a result of the World Cup victory, and around the World Cup, Portugal has become the world's No. 1 national team due to FIFA's changes to the ranking methodology.

As a result, the Team of the Year became Portugal's bag and won the Most Improved Award for its impressive improvement.

In the applause of the audience, the head coach of the Portuguese national team and the captain Figo took the stage to accept the award together, which is a glorious moment for Portugal and a glorious moment for them.

Quaresma had been feeling sorry for Figo just now, but now, seeing Figo on stage to accept the award, he also smiled with relief.
