Chapter 206: Golden Globe Awards Announced!

Arsenal and Tottenham derbies have a long history of feuds, and every meeting is a tense affair, with the process of the rise and fall of the two teams. The elder Shaun in the stands was happy as if he was six years old again, and since then his wish has been to beat Tottenham in the local derby every year, and it would be even better if he could continue to win titles and regain the glory of the 30s.

Now the team is walking on that path.

After the draw for the quarter-finals of the League Cup, the two teams will play the League Cup on the 17th of this month, which means that the north London derby will be staged twice in a month.

Pochettino also said with some emotion after the game that Tottenham's biggest enemy is regarded as Arsenal, but "in fact I am very good friends with Unai Emery and Lu. ”

"Well, it was going to be an exciting game, in the 90 minutes it was a lot of competition, it was Lu who dominated the game, but afterwards we were still able to get along. What will happen to us next time, who knows? ”

He gave a high evaluation to Lu Zhuhu, to Arsenal, and to Emery - what is sad is that in his past career, Pochettino has led the team to defeat Emery only once, and it is even more unfortunate that Emery has now also got Lu Zhuhu.

Ah, what a "winged tiger"!

The day after this match is the day the 2018 Ballon d'Or will be announced.

On October 8th, the Golden Ball Awards announced a list of 30 candidates on the 8th, World Footballer Modric is on the list, Lu Zhuhu is also very popular, and at the same time the two of them are nominated in Real Madrid's former teammate Ronaldo - Real Madrid must be the biggest winner, these are all Real Madrid or former Real Madrid, in addition to him, Real Madrid also has the Champions League final alone two goals Bale, Benzema, Varane, Isco, Marcelo, Ramos...... Selected.

Of course, there are also plum ball kings and Salah, several handsome guys in the French team, etc.

As the captain of the World Cup-winning Chinese team, Captain Lu really needs a personal award to draw an end to his experience of starting low and going high, getting better, reaching the top, and recreating brilliance in the past year.

The biggest opponent is still the Magic Flute – Modric has beaten Cristiano Ronaldo twice and won the FIFA World Footballer of the Year award and the European Footballer of the Year.

There has always been controversy about who is more authoritative in the three major awards in football, but the Ballon d'Or has always been regarded as the most authoritative and scientific.

The FIFA Best Player is an award created by FIFA since 1991 and adopts the method of "nomination + voting". In addition to journalists, the head coach of the national team, and the captain of the national team, there were also fan votes, and each part accounted for a quarter of the votes. The existence of fan voting makes the "FIFA Player of the Year" seem more "democratic". But then there is the problem that fans are frantically "brushing up" for their idols, just as the Puskas award Salah relied on a large number of votes from his compatriots to win the award.

The European Player of the Year award was born in 2011 by a jury of sports journalists from 53 European countries, each of whom provided a three-person list of the best players, with the first-choice player receiving 5 points, the second-choice player receiving 3 points, and the third-choice player receiving 1 point. In the first round of voting, the three players with the most votes will be shortlisted until the final round of voting, where they will vote for the best player live at the award ceremony. Unlike the FIFA Ballon d'Or, which has been dominated by forwards for a long time, midfielders and defenders have a stronger presence in the UEFA Player of the Championships, otherwise it would be difficult for Iniesta and Modric to win the award.

But for all players, the Ballon d'Or is the most valuable.

Founded in 1956 by French Football magazine, the Ballon d'Or has always been known for its fairness and professionalism. The Ballon d'Or is judged by a jury composed of professional football journalists from all over the world, and each judge selects five players in order, with 5 points for the first place and 1 point for the fifth place. Since 1995, the players selected by journalists have to come from the 50-man list proposed by France Football.

Although the selection for the Ballon d'Or is limited to journalists, these are certainly the experts who have the most extensive knowledge of football. Therefore, in the history of more than 60 years, especially after the selection was relaxed to players from all over the world, the Ballon d'Or has been more fair, and has not excluded South American stars or stars from other continents, and is generally considered the most authoritative individual award in football. The fame of that year even far exceeded that of "World Footballer of the Year". Just like in 2003 and 2004, the World Footballer of the Year was awarded to Zidane and Ronaldo, who were more famous but did not perform well that season, and the European Ballon d'Or that year was taken away by Nedved and Shevchenko at their peak. It is self-evident who is more reasonable. But between 2010 and 2016, the Ballon d'Or merged with World Footballer of the Year, and there was a noticeable change in the way voting is done. The press votes accounted for only 1\3 of the "FIFA Golden Ball Award", and the rest were divided between the captain of the national team and the head coach of the national team. It was during the years of the merger that there was a lot of controversy.

In 2010, the first year of the "FIFA Ballon d'Or", the final winner of the award was Messi, who had almost no top team accolades - although there was La Liga, it was not enough to see that year. Sneijder, the treble winner and World Cup runner-up, did not even enter the final three. The Times directly used three words to describe the Golden Globes that year: "shocking, controversial, and ridiculous"

After 6 years, due to a series of personnel changes at FIFA, the contract with France Football also ended. Today's Golden Globe Awards are once again back to the traditional mode of voting by teams of journalists. However, in the history of the joint organization with FIFA, the Ballon d'Or has also caused a lot of controversy, and it is still debatable whether it can be restored to its previous status.

Chinese fans have already said that if this year's Golden Globe Awards are not given to Lu Zhuhu, then they will be angry that none of the three DJI is fair.

The winner of this year's Ballon d'Or will be announced by France Football magazine on December 3.

Before the final Ballon d'Or winner was announced, France Football announced the rankings of the other players in reverse order – always stirring up emotions.

It is worth noting that since 10 players on the 30-man shortlist did not receive votes, the reverse order starts at 20th.

In 20th place is Real Madrid's Kroos, who got one point - suddenly surpassing other opponents with 0 points, and Modric also scored only one point the year before, so he has become a super favorite this year, and it is also interesting to see if there are some off-field factors.

After finishing in the top five, fifth place is Messi with 94 points.

Fourth is Mbappe with 121 points.

Third......

Cristiano Ronaldo, 461 points.

For President Luo's performance, this ranking is indeed unfair.

In fact, as soon as you see the second, all the results are already out.

The wait was extremely long, and it made the fans who waited all night anxious.

Second-

Luka Modric!

When the name came out, Chinese fans already knew that the dust had settled!

"2018 Golden Globe Winner, Lu!"

Captain Lu finally relied on his incomparable performance in the second half of the year to win the most important individual award!
