Forgetting when it began, Yang Yang rarely doubted himself.

Maybe it was the day he had a super training ground; Maybe a little later, when he joined Ajax; Or even later, the night he helped Ajax win the Champions League; Or......

He really doesn't remember.

Self-confidence is not easy to come by, especially with a high level of self-confidence like his.

As his professional experience continues to grow, Yang Yang has become more and more confident, and he even feels that he can do anything.

When he saw Cristiano Ronaldo go through three in a row, he thought that I could do it too.

When he saw Messi in Barcelona with five in a row, he told himself in his head, sooner or later, I can do it too.

When he saw that the major European bookmakers listed Kaka as the number one favorite in the world footballer, although he didn't say anything, he was very unconvinced in his heart, and scolded, this group of blind idiots!

He feels more and more like Ibrahimovic, but the biggest difference between him and the Swedes is that the Swedes like to say what they think, but Yang Yang never does it.

At this moment, sitting in the Grimaldi Convention Center, at the moment when Platini opened the envelope and was about to announce the final winner, Yang Yang still seemed very calm on the surface, but his heart was already turbulent.

He is not doubting whether he is qualified to receive this award, but he is speculating whether UEFA will award this award to him, because at the height of him and Kaka, whether he can win this award or not can only represent an honor.

Of course, if he can't get it, Yang Yang will feel regretful, and at the same time, he will scold UEFA in his heart, a guy with no eyes, but what should he do after that.

He believed that he thought like this, and Kaka next to him must be like this, but he couldn't say it.

At their level, there is not much point in the technical and tactical competition, but more about confidence and condition, as well as the support from the team as a whole.

Therefore, when Yang Yang saw Platini open the envelope, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but he used a smile to cover it up, because he knew that the live broadcast camera must be aimed at him and Kaka at this time.

I don't know if it's telepathy, Kaka also smiled, the two glanced at each other, and nodded to each other.

Wait a minute, no matter who wins the award, the other party will definitely stand up and celebrate as soon as possible.

That's their demeanor.

……

No one knew if Platini had known the outcome before, but on stage, he was clearly whimpering.

This sudden sound caused an uproar in the audience.

Everyone was obviously a little caught off guard, they didn't expect the UEFA president to come and do this.

Soon, however, the Grimalty Congress Center was quiet again.

Everyone's attention fell on Platini, and the afterglow was on Yang Yang and Kaka in the front row.

Both are still young and will be the most competitive players in European football in the coming years, but who will be able to win this award and become the brightest superstar in European football after Ronaldinho?

Platini, who was clearly aware of the tension that had been created in the convention center at this moment, hesitated, but eventually took a step forward and called out a name hard and cleanly.

"Yang Yang!"

For a while, the audience was in an uproar.

Yang Yang was the first to jump up from his seat, clenched his hands into fists and shouted, then quickly turned around and hugged Kaka tightly as he stood up.

"Congratulations, Yang, you've really done better." Kaka congratulated.

"Thank you, Kaka."

"You won this time, but I'll definitely find a chance to win it back." Kaka laughed.

If his voice was still a little trembling when he spoke just now, then this smile seemed more relaxed, and it was obvious that he had put it down, which proved that Kaka's mind was indeed more mature.

"Don't worry, I'll be waiting for you at any time!" Yang Yang also accepted the challenge with a smile.

Subsequently, Yang Yang hugged his teammates Gerrard, Xavi Alonso and Reyna behind him, accepted the congratulations of his teammates, and at the same time ran to the next door, and hugged him in front of coach Benitez, and met Ajax's director Ali van Eden along the way, and Yang Yang also hugged him.

Although he has left Ajax, Yang Yang still has not forgotten his time in Ajax.

He is an Ajax legend and may even consider returning to Ajax when he is about to retire in the future.

It's also a kind of cycle that many professional players have throughout their careers.

……

After running briskly to the podium, Yang Yang smiled and received the trophy from Platini's hand, and accepted the congratulations of the UEFA president, shook hands and hugged him, and finally walked to the microphone.

"Well, I'm a little nervous right now." Yang Yang said very frankly.

Because he didn't even prepare the acceptance speech.

There was a burst of laughter, but no one would say anything about him.

Yang Yang is the big winner tonight, the Grimaldi Convention Center!

'I want to say, thank you to UEFA, thank you to the Premier League, thank you to Liverpool, thank you to Ajax, and thank you to all my team-mates and coaches who have supported me along the way, without you I wouldn't be here today.

When Yang Yang was receiving the best striker just now, he had already thanked all his teammates and coaches, but now he didn't know what to say.

"Also, I want to thank my family, my parents and friends, as well as Su Ye and her family, and my friends, and of course, my agent, Mino Raiola."

Yang Yang looked at the trophy in his hand and nodded: "Winning this award is full of incredibleness for me, and it has a different meaning, because I still clearly remember that I have sat in the audience several times and watched with envy many people come to the stage to receive this award, and at that time I told myself that I hope that one day I can also come up." ”

"Tonight, I made it happen!"

Yang Yang's words won thunderous applause for him.

This is how all professional players and coaches have come over, and everyone has gone from watching others receive awards with envy, being angry, and finally making themselves stronger and stepping onto this podium.

"I want to say that this is not the end, I am only 20 years old, I think this is just the beginning, I believe that I can continue to go further and longer, and I am sure that everyone will see me on this podium often in the future!"

There was a burst of applause at the scene.

This is definitely shouting out the fighting spirit in Yang Yang's heart.

Yang Yang slowly took two steps back, bowed deeply to everyone in the audience, and turned around and walked off the stage amid the warmest applause from the audience.

At this time, on the big screen of the podium, Yang Yang's outstanding performance in the Champions League in the past season was broadcast.

Thirteen goals and nine assists, whether it is from the statistics or from the performance on the field, Yang Yang is impeccable.

Although many people are upset about Kaka, in fact, Yang Yang deserves to win the award.

Because no one can erase his impressive form and amazing performances last season.

And everyone also noticed that when Yang Yang was off the field, Kaka stood up again to congratulate him.

Obviously, the Brazilian players are still very personable, even though they lost.

……

'I didn't expect to score so many goals in the Champions League last season and I think it all depends on the support of my team-mates.

After the game, when Yang Yang was interviewed on the official website of UEFA, he expressed his feelings about winning the award.

"Of course I'm most happy to win the award, but for me, helping the team and my team-mates win the title is what motivates me and I'm looking forward to the next challenges and I feel that our team has the ability to defend the title this season."

"Of course, no matter what happens in the future, the Champions League last season and tonight's award will always have a special place in my heart."

Regarding Liverpool's draw, Yang Yang said that luck was okay, but there should be no carelessness.

'Whether it's Porto, Marseille or Besiktas, they are all teams with a lot of quality and we have to take every game seriously and pay attention to every opponent so that we can get a better and more favorable place in the group stage.'

As for Porto with Anderson, Marseille with Ribery, and the strength of the two rivals has been greatly reduced, Yang Yang said that it will definitely have an impact, but Liverpool still has to deal with it carefully.

'I think our goal is to win the group, that's for sure, but Porto and Marseille have the quality to stop us, so we have to be cautious and be careful.'

Yang Yang also expressed his gratitude to Kaka, who he believes is one of the strongest players in the world, and is also a very friendly friend, with whom he has been friends for many years.

"I met Kaka when I first walked into the Grimalti Convention Centre, he was already a big name in Europe, but he was very friendly to me, we have a very good friendship and it doesn't hurt because of the competition, on the contrary, it makes us motivate each other."

As for the FIFA Awards ceremony and the European Ballon d'Or selection in December at the end of the year, Yang Yang said that he has no way to influence anyone's choice, but he is full of confidence in himself.

"We Chinese have a saying, do our best, obey the destiny of heaven."

"The only thing I can do is let everyone see my quality, my performance and my form, and if they choose to vote for me in the end, then I can't guarantee it, but no matter what, it's a valuable experience and an asset for me."

Yang Yang also believes that he hopes to help Liverpool win the championship more than winning individual awards.

Whether it is the league championship or the Champions League title, Yang Yang believes that Liverpool has enough strength to fight for it.

"If you can do both, then it will be better." Yang Yang smiled honestly and unceremoniously.
