Due to the large number of users logging into the official website of "French Football" in Chinese mainland, the official website of the guide zhì fell into paralysis, and finally had to temporarily add two servers.

This day can be said to be a headache for authoritative journalists from UEFA member states with the right to vote for the European Ballon d'Or.

The winners of the European Ballon d'Or in the World Cup year are naturally players who tend to show themselves well in the World Cup, so their votes should naturally go to the champions and runners-up Italy and France.

The problem is that Iroh was definitely a superstar last season! And it continued well after the start of the new season, but Cannavaro, the captain of the Italian national team who transferred to Real Madrid in the new season, was a headache, and his steady performance in the World Cup helped the national team win the championship, which should have been his advantage.

But the problem is that in addition to his good performance in the World Cup, the new season to Real Madrid can be called the lowest point of his career, just from the just-concluded Spanish national derby, it can be seen that in the confrontation with Elo, he fell into a comprehensive disadvantage, and was sent off before half-time.

The same is true for Thierry Henry, who finished runners-up in both the Champions League and the World Cup last season and is the Premier League's top scorer, but the problem is that his Premier League form has slipped too much in the new season, even more so than Cannavaro.

In other words, in the end, only Iroh remained, only he was very good at the table last season, and he continued his excellent form in the new season, but then again, the World Cup stage is always a place that cannot be ignored.

So it's normal to be embarrassed, who is it voted for?

It is worth mentioning that the report of the sister newspaper of "France Football" on the official website of the day is reverie, "Judging from the players elected in the last two World Cup years, Zidane in 1998 and Ronaldo in 2002, it can be said that it was the champions of those two World Cups and the excellent performance of the two in the World Cup that helped them to be elected, and this trend should not change in 2006......"

When the newspaper reported on its official website, their official website quickly went down with the official website of France Football, and finally had to temporarily add a server to barely cope.

Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello firmly supported his disciple Cannavaro, "If Fabio is not elected to the European Ballon d'Or, it will definitely be a scandal!" And the conjecture on the official website of the "Team Newspaper" directly killed the appearance of the scandal! ”

At this time, the imaginative media began to use their imagination, Real Madrid's big-name players basically supported Elloh, and the manager chose to support Cannavaro.

That...... Does this mean that the generals are not in harmony?

But Capello's subsequent remarks had to stifle their wild ideas in the cradle, "This is just my personal opinion, and it does not involve other aspects, and at the same time, I should also support Fabio in public and private, because he is a disciple I brought out, and his professionalism is the best player I have ever seen, not one of them." ”

Real Madrid's head coach began to speak, and Valencia's head coach Flores naturally needed to stand up and speak, "Don't ask me why, I will definitely support Ai to win this European Ballon d'Or, why?" You're not his head coach and you never know how hard he works! Since I became the head coach of Valencia, there has never been a day when he was not the first to arrive at the training ground, nor when he did not take the initiative to stay for additional training, it was he who told me that there is no shortcut to success!! ”

If Flores's words are not convincing, then after the previous free transfer to Valencia, because of the competition with Ailo, the words of Kluivert, who led the decline of the relationship between the two, are convincing, "Aside from our problems, that guy is indeed very good, in Valencia's half a season, he is always the first to go to the training ground, and the last to leave the training ground......"

At the same time, Ranieri, who has the grace to promote Iro, also supported him in the UK, "There is no free lunch in this world, there is no invincible talent, only one percent talent and ninety-nine percent sweat to create success, and Ai is this type of player, last season's performance is obvious to all, I am proud to have coached him!" If he hadn't won this year's European Golden Globe Awards, it would definitely be the biggest shady ever in the history of the European Golden Globe Awards! ”

Henry, who has a good relationship with Iro, also began to support Iroh after knowing that he would not be able to win the European Golden Globe Awards, "I have never seen such an outstanding young talent!" Ai is definitely a superstar who will lead the trend in the future!! ”

Even a number of media outlets that have followed Aello have published the truth on their official websites.

Suddenly, most of the media began to support Iro, because there are many geniuses in this world, but geniuses who work hard to achieve Cheng Dù like Iroh are rare.

****

At the center of the storm, Iroh still came to the training ground early to train as if nothing happened, and started training again after a day's training session.

So many reporters waiting for Ailo outside the training base secretly gave Ailo a thumbs up, he was really a big player! At such a critical time, I was able to easily prepare for the next round of the league.

In fact, Iroh's psychology is quite nervous, although he knows that his chances of winning the European Ballon d'Or this year are very small, but he still can't help but look forward to it, after all, his efforts in this year are obvious to all.

Outsiders can't see that Iroh is absent-minded, but his teammates can see it, because he has made mistakes one after another during closed training.

After the training, fans and reporters are allowed to come in and interview the players, but it is a little restrictive and there should not be too many personnel.

Valencia's die-hard fan group 'Bat Guard', led by its leader Joe Pooh, cheered for Iro, and banners hung around the training ground, which moved Iro.

For the reporter's interview, Ailo seemed quite low-key, and did not say anything that made the reporter's eyes shine, so a hot topic can only wait until half past four tomorrow afternoon The announcement of the official website of "French Football" will be announced.

****

On November 27th, at three o'clock in the afternoon, all the players of Valencia had stopped training under the call of assistant coach Paulo.

Ten minutes later, they were led by head coach Flores to the usual team's tactical class.

Just when everyone was inexplicable, Flores turned on the projector connected to the computer, and opened the official website of "French Football" on the computer, and there was an eye-catching title in the prominent position of the official website: European Ballon d'Or winner!

Next to this eye-catching headline, there is a countdown on the number exactly 20:09, which means that the European Ballon d'Or winner will be announced at 20:09 seconds.

At this time, there should be a lot of attention to the eventual winner of this year's European Golden Globe Awards!

Because the winner of this year's European Ballon d'Or in France Football will be announced after 20 minutes, whether the winner will follow the annual schedule or follow the player who has played well in the World Cup.

The Valencia players in the conference room did not start talking in pairs and threes because there were still twenty minutes left, but looked at Ailo collectively.

Even though Iroh's face was thick enough, he would feel embarrassed to be stared at by nearly thirty big men in the entire conference room, so he had to shrug his shoulders, pout, and said embarrassedly: "Don't look at me like that, I'm not a model with a front-convex back-up." ”

Puff -

Everyone subconsciously let out a laugh, and then they each played with the mobile phone in their hands, or raised their heads from time to time to look at the countdown of the projector projection.

But after this burst of laughter, Iroh's mood began to relax.

His attention was all on the phone lying on the table.

He knew that if he won the award, the editor-in-chief of France Football would call ...... congratulate him and invite him to accept the award together, the same step as he won the European Golden Boy Award last year.

Minutes and seconds passed.

By the time the countdown was five minutes away, nothing had happened on Iro's phone except for messages from his friends at home and his former teammates in Valencia.

……

……

At the same time, the conference room of the Real Madrid training base.

Cannavaro was also anxiously looking at his phone, until five minutes before the announcement, his phone rang, and he looked at the name of the note: Denis Chaumiere

Cannavaro's excitement was palpable, and he pressed the answer button excitedly.

"Congratulations, Mr. Fabio Cannavaro, you have won the 2006 European Ballon d'Or!"

……

……

Three minutes later, one minute before the countdown.

Iello's phone also rang, and the screen of the phone did not show the name, which means that it was not someone I knew who called, but there was an ID address on the screen of the phone, Paris, France.

All eyes were on Iroh, and the words of longing were written on his face.

Iroh forcibly suppressed the surging feeling in his heart and pressed the answer button.

"Ai?"

"Hmm!" Although Iroh was excited, the tone of his answer was quite calm, but the smile on his face was very obvious.

His answer also made his teammates subconsciously raise their high middle fingers at him, he was too good at pretending!

"Hello, I'm Denis Chaumiere, editor-in-chief of France Football!"

"Hello, Monsieur Denis Chaumiere."

A sizable portion of the players in the room whistled.

But after a second, Ello's smile froze on his face.

"It's a shame that you finished second at this year's European Ballon d'Or by one point......"

The time on the projector was still slowly counting down, and Iroh's friend David Silva was the first to notice that something was wrong with him, and subconsciously asked, "What was the result?" ”

Iroh closed his eyes and shook his head.

Everyone saw Iroh's movements and didn't seem to believe his reaction, so they turned their heads to look at the countdown on the projector, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1......

At the same time as the number '00' appeared in the prominent position on the official website of "France Football", a name appeared in the blank space: Fabio Cannavaro!

Suddenly, they understood the meaning of Iroh's expression just now.

And at the same time, the nameless fire in their hearts also broke out, this is a shady scene!!
