Chapter 419: New World Footballer

Of the three candidates, Zidane is the calmest.

He knows very well that France did not win the World Cup, and he did not lead Real Madrid to any glory last season, and he is simply a companion.

Vardy is also calm, although he is a little unwilling, but since he already knows the result in advance, he doesn't have to think too much.

Cannavaro, on the other hand, was a little nervous, he was really afraid of losing the honor of World Footballer of the Year.

Jamie Vardy came close to toppling himself at the European Ballon d'Or when the gap between the two was almost negligible.

And Vardy's recent performance has been so hot that everyone is boiling, and it is really not impossible for him to overtake himself later.

How can this joke be so able to score goals?

Cannavaro is on the verge of collapse.

Fortunately, I have never met Vardy, otherwise if I had been unwanted by Vardy, what face would I have standing here waiting to receive the award?

The award was presented by Dutch star Davies, and the announcement of the results was by FIFA President Blatter, a combination that is very interesting to look at.

A beast, one is similar to a beast, is this the rhythm of eating the World Footballer of the Year directly after the award?

The host began to introduce the three candidates, and the highlights of the three of them in the past year began to be played on the big screen.

Zidane's highlights are naturally the wonderful performance in the process of Real Madrid's midfield dribbling and leading France to the World Cup final;

Cannavaro is a highlight of a brilliant defense, as well as the scheduling of the Italian defence, which are all pluses;

But when it's Vardy's turn, the highlights are a bit long......

From January to December, Vardy scored more than 50 goals in all competitions, and the FIFA staff were clearly not attentive enough to add all the scoring process to the highlights, or rather, he was a Vardy admirer at all, and he wanted to give his idol a perfect highlight.

The more than 15-minute highlights made the audience and guests watch with relish, and even forgot that this was the award ceremony.

Next to him, Cannavaro's face darkened.

What does this mean?

Implying that Vardy has won the award and is out of play?

This script is wrong!

Vardy was glad that he had thought that FIFA would come up with an ingenious way to show his own comic highlights!

Finally, the tormented highlight show was over, and the guests applauded non-stop, ready for the final result.

Blatter took a card with the results of the World Footballer of the Year award.

"Well, the winner of this year's World Footballer of the Year award is Jamie Vardy......"

Incredible exclamations and applause erupted in disbelief and all eyes were on Vardy.

Cannavaro was ready to stand up and receive the cheers, but he didn't expect Blatter to read Vardy's name at the end.

At this moment, Cannavaro's expression was so embarrassing and embarrassing, his face was hard to see, but under the focus of the global media, he couldn't lose his temper, so he had to force a smile and applaud Vardy beside him.

When Blatter's name came out of Blatter's mouth, Vardy was dumbfounded, and he stood there with his eyes straight and unresponsive.

This should be hit by a huge surprise, and I can't react!

Everyone else thinks so, but Vardy is not surprised, but incredible.

How could it be yourself?

Isn't that Cannavaro?

It's unbelievable!

At Blatter's prompting, Vardy walked onto the podium in a daze, still feeling dazed.

It wasn't until Davies handed Vardy the trophy in his hand that Vardy seemed to emerge from his shock.

Looking down and stroking the trophy in his hand, Vardy tried to calm himself down, and it was only then that he really felt a huge sense of surprise falling from the sky.

"I was so excited, even so excited that I didn't feel my own heartbeat, and from my sluggish expression just now, you can tell how incredible I feel now, I really didn't think I could become the World Footballer of the Year!"

Vardy took a deep breath and began to make his acceptance speech.

"For this award, first of all, I would like to thank FIFA for organizing this award and giving me the opportunity to stand on this podium; Thank you to the national team managers and captains for this recognition, uh, I'm a little too excited! ”

'I've had a lot of help from you, thanks to Mr Alex Ferguson, thanks to Cristiano and Wayne, thanks to my lovely team-mates, without you I wouldn't have scored as many goals.

"In fact, I want to thank you more for your tolerance, everyone knows that I am a tease, I will never deny this, thank you for not killing me when I was teasing and messing around!"

......

As soon as Vardy's words ended, Vardy's funny highlights began to play on the big screen, as if FIFA staff had expected Vardy to say his acceptance speech.

The guests in the audience laughed, and even Zidane and Cannavaro, who had recovered his mood, couldn't help but laugh.

Having the courage to admit that he was funny, Vardy was really the first.

Blatter then presented Silver and Bronze Awards to Cannavaro and Zinedine Zidane, and the ceremony ended after the two stars gave speeches.

The three stars stood together with their respective trophies and murdered countless reels of film, and the photo quickly spread around the world.

Until the end of the awards ceremony, Vardy still didn't understand why he won the award.

This doesn't make sense!

All the things that don't make sense must have their own special reasons.

The European Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year, the two supreme individual honors, are actually quite different in terms of emphasis.

In terms of word-of-mouth, it is obvious that the European Ballon d'Or is more authoritative, while the World Footballer of the Year is a greater bonus to fame.

Cannavaro won the European Ballon d'Or, which is an affirmation of his excellent performance in the World Cup, and even more so an affirmation of the whole of Italy, although Vardy regrets it, he can't say anything.

And when it comes to World Footballer of the Year, it is obvious that Vardy's fame is about to crush Cannavaro, how can a super goalscorer not be as exposed as a defender!

And more importantly, Vardy's teasing name is known all over the world, and Cannavaro can't compare.

In terms of fame, it was certainly a prerequisite for Vardy to win the award.

But the question is, what Vardy doesn't understand is, how can FIFA really award the award to him?

In fact, Vardy really didn't understand FIFA's mind.

Yes, Italy and Cannavaro do deserve recognition, but now that the European Ballon d'Or has been taken away by Cannavaro, the weight of honor is enough.

And Vardy, a super funny player who can make people laugh all the time, will be more helpful for FIFA to continue to promote football, and only Vardy can attract more attention from ordinary people, and then make them like football.

So, with this factor in mind, FIFA chose to award the World Footballer of the Year trophy to Vardy.

As for the ballots?

If only you knew there was such a thing......

When Jamie Vardy returned to England with the World Footballer of the Year title, the whole of England was boiling!

This is not a pheasant award from the Pheasant Association, but the highest honor selected by the real authority of FIFA, and even more than the European Ballon d'Or in terms of popularity alone.

Since FIFA created this award, no English player has won this honor, which has made the proud John Bull unable to let go for a long time.

David Beckham has won two silver medals, Frank Lampard has won silver medals, Alan Shearer and Lineker have won bronze medals, and they are already considered to be at the top of world football, but they still lost to their opponents and missed out on the title of World Footballer of the Year.

And this time, Vardy finally raised his eyebrows.

It can be said that having won the honorary title of World Footballer of the Year, Vardy has truly become the number one person in world football.

Zinedine Zidane retired, Ronaldo's form declined, and European Ballon d'Or winner Cannavaro posed no threat to Vardy.

By the time he was less than 20 years old, Vardy was already reigning in the world.

Ronaldo was 20 years old when he won the World Footballer of the Year award, and Vardy has now officially surpassed the alien Ronaldo to become the youngest World Footballer of the Year.

The whole world of football shook and everyone cheered for Vardy, he deserves to be worshipped.

The Times: Jamie Vardy becomes the first Englishman to win the World Footballer of the Year award

The Mirror: Vardy's victory, England's victory

The Post: Vardy's counterattack, what was lost, was to be regained

The Echo: The man who conquered world football with his goals

The Sun: The story Vardy and Blatter had to tell......

......

Public opinion is frantically hyped, and advertisers are also collectively contributing to the situation, and in a short period of time, Vardy's name has resounded all over the world.

In the past, when it came to Vardy, everyone basically used a very strange tone to say: Is that teasing?

And now, although everyone still thinks Vardy is a joke, but the word World Footballer of the Year has to be added in front of it.

Of course, really sensible people also have their own analysis of the inner meaning of this World Footballer of the Year selection, obviously, in addition to his own excellent performance this time, Vardy actually took a big advantage of the name of teasing.

What's even more interesting is that the World Cup is hosted by FIFA, the Champions League is hosted by UEFA, Cannavaro led Italy to the World Cup championship, but won the European Golden Ball Award; Jamie Vardy, on the other hand, led Manchester United to the Champions League, but won the World Footballer of the Year award.

Is this the other way around?

Well, there must be a battle between FIFA and UEFA, who knows!
