-- After playing the League Cup semi-final against Aston Villa, Chen Xi was given another day of rest. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info because the weekend's FA Cup Benitez is ready to give the main players a good rest.

On the second day of the competition, Chen Xi also slept a lot. It wasn't until about ten o'clock in the morning that Chen Xi woke up from his deep sleep.

After waking up, Chen Xi did not get up immediately, but touched his mobile phone from the bedside table.

When Chen Xi sleeps, unless there are special circumstances, he is generally used to turning it off. This will make him turn on the phone first, and then slowly wake up by himself.

After a period of familiar boot music, a handshake with the Nokia logo appeared on the phone.

This also reminded Chen Xi of a video he saw on the Internet before the crossing, talking about a Chinese copycat phone, which has a copycat Nokia's mobile phone, and the boot screen looks similar to Nokia's at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that the screen is not two hands, but ...... Two feet!

It can only be said that the wisdom of Chinese copycats is infinite!

Ding~~~Ding~~~Ding~~~~ After a period of waiting as usual after turning on, the ringtone of the text message suddenly rang continuously.

This made Chen Xi a little surprised, even if he got up late, there shouldn't be so many people looking for me, right?

If you look closely, you can see that there are really a lot of text messages.

clicked in and took a look, and familiar names were imprinted in Chen Xi's eyes.

"Chen Xi, you kid is awesome, you have been shortlisted for the Golden Globe Award! Congratulations! Try to bring the trophy back and give me a touch! When the time comes to return to China, I can also show off, haha! "This one was sent by Yang Xu.

"Fantastic, shortlisted for the Golden Globes! I'm sure you can win the prize! "It's Eva's text message.

Later, the text messages from friends or teammates such as David Marvin, Lao Zhang, Danny Weir and Robbie Keane are also about the Golden Ball.

This made Chen Xi not slow down, he knew that the Golden Globe Award everyone was talking about should be the European Golden Globe Award. As early as more than a month ago, Chen Xi knew that he had been shortlisted for the 50-man Golden Globe Awards. He didn't pay much attention to that, after all, his performance last season was a matter of course for the 50-man squad.

This time, everyone sent text messages to congratulate themselves, what is the situation?

Chen Xi, who was a little unknown, got out of bed directly with a piece of clothing, opened the door and took out today's newspaper, and went directly to the sports edition.

The headline above is "Five candidates for the European Golden Globe Awards announced, Edison is shortlisted for the Premier League".

After a closer look, Chen Xi knew that the European Golden Globe Awards had announced the top five in the 50-man roster this time, and the winners of the Golden Globes would undoubtedly be produced among these people.

Seeing this news, Chen Xi, who was originally quite calm, was also a little excited. Yes, he has indeed been in the top five of the European Ballon d'Or and will hopefully take home the award, which symbolizes the highest individual honour for a player in European football.

You know, this is Chen Xi's second season, but he has already achieved an achievement that many players can't achieve in a lifetime.

Glancing at the other four candidates, Chen Xi found that they were all top superstars in world football. Last season's Champions League winners, AC Milan have two men in their squad, one is their striker Andriy Shevchenko, and the other is their captain Maldini. In addition to these two, Nedved, the heart of last season's Champions League runners-up and Serie A champions Juventus, was also selected. The last spot is Zinedine Zinedine Zidane from Real Madrid.

Chen Xi became the only player in the Premier League to be shortlisted for the final five, so it's no wonder that the headline of this report directly says that Chen Xi "represents" the Premier League shortlisted.

Before the crossing, since he was forced to give up football after learning that he had a heart attack, Chen Xi probably never even dreamed that his name would be put together with these big-name stars.

Moreover, according to the analysis of this report, Chen Xi seems to have a good probability of winning the award!

Chen Xi himself can't help but look forward to the Golden Globe Awards, because after winning this award, it will undoubtedly make Chen Xi take a big step forward on the road to superstardom!

After the affirmation of the Golden Ball Award, Chen Xi also has some expectations for the future selection of the World Footballer. Although in the eyes of experts, the professional surname of the World Footballer of the Year is not as good as the European Ballon d'Or. But the title of World Footballer of the Year is still bigger than the European Ballon d'Or on a global scale. And Chen Xi also wants to see the FIFA awards ceremony, known as the "Oscars of football".

The European Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year awards have been awarded at the end of December in previous years. But due to the raging events some time ago, France Football magazine and FIFA have postponed such a large event to January. (Well, the lid knows that this reason is far-fetched, so let's take it as nonsense!) I hope you don't take it seriously. The news that Chen Xi was shortlisted for the European Ballon d'Or also made him the focus of England and even the whole of Europe on this day.

After all, Chen Xi has just turned nineteen years old, which is a very remarkable achievement. You know, even the alien Ronaldo, known as the new king of the ball, the youngest winner of the European Ballon d'Or, was 21 years old when he won the award for the first time.

In other words, once Chen Xi can win the European Golden Globe Award, he will surpass Ronaldo to become the youngest winner in the history of the European Golden Globe Award!

The British media cheered for Chen Xi in their own reports. At this time, Chen Xi represents not only Liverpool, but the entire Premier League. Of the five candidates, Serie A occupies three seats. The British media, who have been advocating that the Premier League has surpassed Italy, can only expect Chen Xi to defeat them by himself and become Mr. Golden Ball.

As a result, everyone listed some of Chen Xi's performances at Tottenham last season and Liverpool this season, hoping to remind the judges of the Ballon d'Or. It's just that they seem to have overlooked the fact that the results have not yet been announced. But in fact, the results of this selection have already been obtained. Otherwise, they won't be able to come up with the names of the top five.

As Chen Xi's "royal" media, "Every Telegraph" took this opportunity to take stock of Chen Xi's performance last season. Even though Chen Xi's performance last season is already well known, when the Telegraph lists his statistics from last season, as well as some records, it will still make some fans smack.

They suddenly felt that it was not too much to rate Chen Xi as a genius who came out once in fifty years or even a hundred years!

After looking ahead to the European Ballon d'Or, the media is looking forward to the upcoming announcement of the World Footballer of the Year candidates.

After all, although Britain claims to be the originator of modern football, no Englishman has ever won the World Footballer of the Year award. This has always been a problem in the hearts of the English people. At the same time, they also believe that if the Premier League really wants to become the world's first league, then having its own World Footballer is also essential!

Seeing that the Ballon d'Or was the first to attract attention, FIFA, the world footballer of the year, which was already competing with them, also reacted immediately.

Two days after the announcement of the shortlist for the European Ballon d'Or, the names of the three candidates for the World Footballer of the Year were finally revealed!

When the world's media speculated whether this year's World Footballer of the Year would go to AC Milan or Juventus, and when British and Chinese fans voted for Chen Xi in the polls, the three candidates for the 2003 World Footballer of the Year announced by FIFA were very shocking.

Zinedine Zidane and Ronaldo, two superstars who have won the World Footballer of the Year many times, are once again on the list, while the other name belongs to Thierry Henry, the king of Highbury.

Although these three names are well-known in world football, they are clearly difficult to convince based on their performances last season. Such nominations also mean that the two finalists in the 02-03 Champions League, as well as the only team in European football to win the treble last season, will go home empty-handed.

Such a result also caused a wave of dissatisfaction in European football.

In fact, in the minds of many football professionals, although FIFA "crushes people to death", the selection of European Footballer of the Year with "folk surname" is more fair. France Football announced the candidates in advance, voted by senior media in various European countries, and was rigorous and credible, because almost all the world's elites gathered in the Europa League, and since 1995, non-European players who have played in Europe can also participate, so the European "Ballon d'Or" can also be said to be the world's "Ballon d'Or".

FIFA's selection is determined by the coaches of various countries, and the level of football in various countries is uneven, and the "consciousness" of the coaches is also high and low, and often makes jokes. For example, Milu, who was the coach of the Chinese national team the year before last, ranked third in the vote for Argentine veteran Simeone, who seemed to be "full of surnames".

As a result, after some selection, the three most famous stars in world football today became the final candidates, and their actual performance fell second.

It's just that, in the eyes of the European media, the shortlisting of these three people is still unconvincing.

In the absence of a national team match, the trio's club performances have become the focus of attention.

Henry's Arsenal team was empty last season, and he was even robbed of the golden boot by the young Chen Xi. As for Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane, they were La Liga champions last season. But they didn't win anything in the Champions League.

This is clearly not comparable to the other four people in the European Ballon d'Or other than Zinedine Zidane. Nedved was widely regarded as the best midfielder in European football last season, leading Juventus to the Serie A title and leading them to the final. In fact, if he hadn't missed the final because of his cards, Juventus wouldn't have necessarily lost to AC Milan.

As for Shevchenko and Maldini, their membership in the Champions League winning team is already telling.

And Chen Xi is the player with the most terrifying statistics last season, and the brightest star in European football. It's a pity that after only a year and a half of debut, he obviously can't compare with the three superstars in terms of fame, which also makes him suffer a big loss in such a selection.

In fact, if you look at the details and history of FIFA's selection of this award, one will find that this situation is not too surprising.

Before the 90s, the only relatively authoritative selection of the "Footballer of the Year" was the European Golden Ball of France Football magazine and the World Footballer of the Year of the British World Football. The former is voted for by a coalition of senior European football journalists, while the latter is voted for by fans and readers. FIFA apparently did not want to see the two media outlets crowning outstanding stars at the end of each year, so from the end of 1991, FIFA officially held the "official" annual World Footballer of the Year event.

However, the results of the inaugural FIFA International Footballer of the Year award were disappointing, with the star scorer Papin, who had been in France and Marseille, not being elected, while Mateus, who had only won one UEFA Europa League that year, won most of the voters with the legacy of the 90-year World Cup winner.

In fact, this is also the inevitable result of the FIFA selection mechanism, the national team coaches participating in the voting are far less "serious and dedicated" than the media reporters and fans, and they are not familiar with the latest developments in world football, and many coaches of football third world countries are not serious about this precious voting power.

Schlapner, the two former national team coaches of the Chinese team, voted for German striker Riedel in 1992, while Qi Wusheng wrote the name of Paraguayan player Gombos who plays for Yanjing Guoan. For Chinese fans, many people may not know that there was once a Chinese who was nominated for the World Footballer of the Year, and in 1992, the head coach of Tahiti in Oceania wrote the names of three Tahiti League players on the ballot, and Gong Lei, who was the top scorer in the Tahiti League at that time, was impressively listed!

The frequent occurrence of this situation obviously affects the fairness of the World Footballer of the Year selection.

For such a result, Chen Xi was also very helpless. After looking at the analysis of the media, Chen Xi also came to a conclusion, that is, his current fame is too small.

Even if he was a little unconvinced, Chen Xi could only secretly swear in his heart that he would get this honor sooner or later! ――

When the English media were complaining about Chen Xi's failure to be selected as the World Footballer of the Year shortlist, Chen Xi ushered in a distinguished guest in Liverpool!

About a week after the Ballon d'Or nominees were announced, Chen Xi received a call from someone claiming to be the editor-in-chief of France Football magazine.

At first, Chen Xi thought he was someone who wanted to conduct an exclusive interview with him. So, he's not particularly enthusiastic.

After some conversations, Chen Xi learned that the editor-in-chief of the magazine named Ernaux was not an ordinary reporter, but a spokesman for "French Football", the organizer of the European Golden Ball Awards.

Chen Xi's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees. Just kidding, this is a big shot.

Ernaux obviously didn't know that he was being ignored by this young man who was famous in European football.

After a brief conversation, Chen Xi received news that shocked him.

"Mr. Chan, I am here today to inform you on behalf of France Football magazine that you have won the 2003 European Ballon d'Or. And we want to have a confidential interview with you in the next few days. ”

When Chen Xi heard this, his first thought was that he thought that which boring person was making fun of him.

It's not that he is not confident in himself, but because in Chen Xi's opinion, this kind of award should not be revealed on the spot.

When Chen Xi raised this doubt, Mr. Ernaux also gave an explanation: "Mr. Chen, before the final results were announced, the results had actually come out, but we were all keeping them secret. As for you, you're not the object of our secrecy. As a winner, you have the right to know the news. At the same time, we also need your cooperation in the promotion of the award after it is announced. It's like this interview and photo shoot. ”

Ernaux listened to what he said, and did not ask for anything other than an appointment with himself for a large hotel. Chen Xi also believed Ernaux's words.

"Lao Tzu is really a European Golden Globe winner!" After the two ended the call, Chen Xi excitedly raised his hands and shouted.

Fortunately, he was alone at home at this time, otherwise Ernaux's request for secrecy would probably have been frustrated.

Chen Xi, who felt that he was a little out of shape, walked directly to the mirror in the bathroom, put on a handsome smile and said to himself in the mirror: "Hey, buddy, this is a European Golden Globe Award!" You'll have more prizes in the future! ”――

After learning the good news, Chen Xi kept his promise of confidentiality with Ernaux and did not tell anyone the news.

It's just that this guy's excitement on the training ground and on the field is quite obvious.

Of course, in the eyes of the outside world, Chen Xi is taking advantage of the European Golden Globe Awards to announce the answer, seizing the opportunity to perform at the end.

Three days later, Chen Xi came to the regentmaritimehotel with Ernaux in a formal suit. This is a hotel that Ernaux found after fully considering the secret surname.

In the hotel room, Chen Xi saw the legendary European Golden Globe trophy.

It's a pity that this time, he can only take pictures with the trophy and have a good time, but he can't take the trophy home. To get this trophy, he still needs to wait a while.

After taking photos, Chen Xi was interviewed again.

Chen Xi usually doesn't like to participate in such an interview, but for his first top personal honor, Chen Xi is still willing to chat with Ernaux.

After some conversation, Chen Xi also had a very good impression of Ernaux, because from the chat, it can be found that as the editor-in-chief of "French Football", he does have his own unique views on football.

This made Chen Xi, who was just about to say a cliché, also have a good chat.

Eventually, after this interview, the two chatted for a while, and Chen Xi said goodbye to Ernaux.

After everything is done, what Chen Xi has to do is wait for the day when the award is awarded-

In the previous week, Liverpool had managed to reach the Carabao Cup final against Middlesbrough. Myburgh managed to reach the final by one goal on aggregate over the two legs.

This is obviously a big blow for Arsenal, who have been left behind in the league and want to teach Liverpool a lesson in the Carabao Cup final. As a result, they ended up in the semifinals.

Of course, Wenger still said in an interview that the elimination of the League Cup is also conducive to the team's efforts to play better in the league and the Champions League. As for whether his heart is as relaxed as he says, it is unknown!

After qualifying for the League Cup final, Liverpool have a new league game.

This round of the league also attracted the eyes of Liverpool fans back to the pitch, because the opponent in this round was their city rivals Everton!

Naturally, there is no need to mobilize for such a game, and the players and fans alike are desperate to win this derby!

The media have also set their eyes on this game, and in the eyes of the British media, if Chen Xi can perform well in this Merseyside derby, it will definitely add a lot of points to his Golden Ball selection.

At the same time, the dialogue between Chen Xi and Wayne Rooney, the two golden boys of England, has always been the focus of the Premier League.

Of course, for the Chinese media, the match was very disappointing. Because of Li Gang's injury, the gimmick of the "Chinese Derby" that they had thought of fell through.

In the first leg of the Merseyside derby this season, Chen Xi once shined in the game and led the team to victory.

In this home battle, Chen Xi and his teammates are even more imperative!

Before the game even began, the Anfield stadium was already packed with enthusiastic Liverpool fans and a handful of Everton fans.

The song of "You will never walk alone" floated in the KOP stands, and the Everton fans were also shouting hard, but the numerical disadvantage was not so easy to make up, and their voices could only be overshadowed by the Liverpool team again and again!

In the pre-match dressing room, Benitez's pre-battle mobilization was also simple!

'The game is about to start, tell the Everton man that this is ...... Anfield! ”

A simple sentence made Chen Xi and his teammates enthusiastic, yes, this is a derby, and there is no need for a long mobilization at all!

In the other dressing room, Moyes seized the time to make a final arrangement, after all, in terms of strength, his team is still a big gap with Liverpool, which is invincible in the Premier League.

When Chen Xi and his teammates walked out of the players' tunnel, Anfield Stadium ushered in the first wave of climax.

Chen Xi could clearly hear the fans, "Mr. Golden Ball!" The shouts.

It seems that Liverpool fans have a lot of confidence in him, and Chen Xi wants to go up and share the good news with them. But he held back, and of course, he would share the joy with the fans in another way, and that was to score goals!

Even the most optimistic Liverpool fans did not expect that in such an important game, the Liverpool team would score so early!

After blocking the first wave of attacks after Everton's kick-off, Liverpool launched a wave of counter-attacks.

There was a change of position between Chen Xi and Gerrard, and he came to the middle.

When facing Graveson, after Chen Xi's continuous center of gravity shook, he suddenly took the ball to the right front, and then accelerated, and without waiting for Graveson to react, he directly picked up his right foot and shot a powerful long shot!

The ball went straight into the top right corner of the goal like a cannonball, and even if Everton goalkeeper Martin made a save, it was still out of reach!

The atmosphere at Anfield was instantly blown up by this lightning goal!

“goooooooooooooooal！！！ Edison ~~~~~~ Chen !! The on-site commentator also came with a wind-scratching elongated tone!

"There is no doubt about it! It's a kick in the world wave! Edison seemed to be reminding the Golden Globe judges with such a kick of the world wave: Choose me! That's right!! ”

Chen Xi, who scored the goal, also rushed to the sidelines excitedly, waving his arms wildly.

"Edison! Edison! Edison! ”

"Mr. Golden Globe! Mr. Golden Ball! Mr. Golden Ball! ”

A neat shout made Chen Xi excited!

The teammates also rushed over excitedly, in their opinion, Chen Xi is Mr. Golden Ball. Even Owen, who has won the European Golden Globe Award once, thinks that Chen Xi 03 is much better than the year he won the award!

Looking at the excited Liverpudlians, the Everton side looked very frustrated, even if they didn't have much hope for this game, but they didn't expect to be scored by the opponent so easily.

As the most talked-about player in the Everton squad, Wayne Rooney is not willing to accept defeat.

Therefore, after the restart of the game, Rooney used his individual ability to threaten the door of the Liverpool team in a row!

It's just that although Rooney plays hard, the support he gets from his teammates is limited after all, and his personal ability can give him some opportunities, but every time it is not easy.

It's not that Moyes didn't let his team strengthen their attack, but because he was too clever to cook.

It was not easy to bring a team like Everton to the top of the league last season without a star. His team has never relied on crazy attacks to win!

Liverpool, on the other hand, are the most attacking team in the Premier League, and they are not satisfied with a one-goal lead. They won at Goodison Park last time ago, and this time at Anfield, they are looking for a big win!

Liverpool's sharp attacks made the Everton team tired, and finally, under the continuous impact of the Liverpool team, the Everton team made a mistake!

Graveson flicked Gerrard on the edge of the box and gave Liverpool a free-kick in a great position!

This caused a huge cheer in the stands!

Moyes, who was on the sidelines, also shook his head helplessly. Obviously, everyone present knows that the Liverpool team has a free kick scoring rate that is perverted!

This guy is Chen Xi who is now setting the ball and preparing to take a free kick!

Usually, Chen Xi has always been a player who can both assist and score goals by himself. His surname is not selfish, and he is not a goal-scoring man, as can be seen from his exaggerated assist count.

It's just that Chen Xi's desire to score goals today is particularly strong, perhaps because he learned that he won the European Golden Ball, or maybe because today's opponent is Liverpool's city rival Everton!

Therefore, in the face of such a free kick opportunity, Chen Xi also seemed very excited!

Compared with Chen Xi's excitement, Martin in front of the Everton team has a bitter face. You must know that Chen Xi's free kick is a nightmare for every goalkeeper in the Premier League!

When Chen Xi started to run, every step he took seemed to be stepping heavily on the hearts of Evertonians!

Finally, when Chen Xi kicked the ball out of a wonderful arc with his right foot, and then the ball flew into the goal from the theoretical dead corner at a breakneck speed, they were liberated!

At this time, the Liverpool fans were celebrating wildly, and there were "boom" cheers from the stands, as if a nuclear bomb had exploded!

“what~a~goooooooooooooooal！！！ Edison ~~~~~~~~ Chen !! Perfect arc, perfect free kick! Edison scored a brace! It was another perfect shot, a brilliant goal! Obviously, Edison was very excited today! The Evertonians are out of luck! ”

Chen Xi, who scored the goal, was also excited, he rushed directly to the billboard on the sidelines, put his hands to his ears, and listened to the cheers from the Red Army fans in the KOP stands!

At this time, Chen Xi suddenly felt that the crazy support and love of the fans was sometimes more exciting than winning the Golden Ball!

Yes, enjoying the perfect atmosphere of Anfield Stadium, Chen Xi felt his blood boiling!

In less than half an hour of the first half, Liverpool took the lead by two goals, which was clearly a fantastic start!

The strong strength shown by the Liverpool team, especially Chen Xi, has made the Everton people feel a lot of pressure. Because they found that compared to the derby in the first half of the season, the strength of the Liverpool team seems to be much stronger!

After the game restarted, Wayne Rooney was still looking for a goal opportunity to help the team get back on the scoresheet!

It's a pity that until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score was still 2-0, according to the usual practice, the home team was in front!

In the locker room at halftime, Chen Xi and his teammates looked extremely relaxed. Especially some of Liverpool's veteran players, in their minds, this should be the easiest Merseyside derby to play!

Chen Xi's performance was like beating chicken blood, which also surprised his teammates. As the winner of the European Golden Globe two years ago, Owen guessed a little bit. But he didn't solve the mystery because he knew it had to be kept secret!

After the start of the second half, Chen Xi's performance was still positive.

This made the Everton players very helpless, and they couldn't figure out when they were guilty of Chen Xi. You must know that even if it is a city derby, no one will play so hard!

Chen Xi didn't really get along with the Everton team, but because this guy had nowhere to vent the secret of the Golden Ball Award in his heart recently, he vented his excitement on the pitch!

The Everton team can only be said to be unlucky, and it happened to be at this time to meet the Liverpool team!

They struggled a bit in the opening stages of the second half, launching a few waves of attacks, and then they were quickly overwhelmed by Liverpool!

Watching Chen Xi complete several threatening shots in a row, the Liverpool fans in the stands gave their shouts.

"Hat-trick! Hat-trick! Hat-trick! ”

Perhaps influenced by the shouts of the fans, Chen Xi really completed a hat trick halfway through the second half!

Alonso sent a beautiful overhead pass for Chen Xi on the left side!

Everton's right-back Hibbert has been chasing after Chen Xi, and in the end, Chen Xi, who has the advantage of speed, chased the ball first.

Chen Xi did not take advantage of the situation to directly sweep the ball to the middle of the penalty area, but skillfully picked the ball back with his left foot.

Hibbert, who couldn't brake, was easily picked by Chen Xi in this way, and after passing Hibbert, Chen Xi went to the penalty area again!

This also made the shouts of "hat trick" in the stands even more enthusiastic!

Facing Stubbs who came over to make up for the defense, Chen Xi made a gesture, but in fact, he made a move to flick the tail of the bull and threw the ball back to the middle!

How could the tall Stubbs withstand such a wonderful feint as Chen Xi, and he was shaken by Chen Xi at all!

After Stubbs, Chen Xi did not continue to dribble the ball, but directly picked up his right foot and pumped the ball to the near corner of the goal!

In the face of Chen Xi's shot from such a close range, the opposing goalkeeper Martin did not react at all!

“fantastic~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~gooooooooooooooooal!!! Edison! Edison! Edison! It's another wonderful world wave! He played the whole left side of the Everton team! Edison scored a hat-trick! Wonderful hat-trick! I don't think the Ballon d'Or judges need to think about it anymore, the facts are in front of you, and Edison is the best player of the year!! ”

The Liverpool fans in the ~~~~~~ stands were once again ignited by Chen Xi's wonderful goal!

"Mr. Golden Globe! Mr. Golden Ball! Mr. Golden Ball! ”

Listening to the shouts of the goal, Chen Xi also took off his jersey excitedly and rushed to the billboard again!

Chen Xi's goal not only ignited the atmosphere at Anfield Stadium again, but also made the Everton people completely give up this game!

In the end, the score of this game was 3-0, and Chen Xi, who completed the hat trick, became the master of this game.

Everton's Wayne Rooney swooped into the dressing room after the referee's whistle and he was fed up with the days at Everton. This kind of saying that he was trampled under Chen Xi's feet every time made him very unhappy. Although the two have a very tacit understanding in the national team, Rooney, who is very competitive, doesn't want to admit defeat like this!

It was this game that made Rooney decide to transfer this summer! ――

Chen Xi, who scored a hat-trick in the Merseyside derby, was once again in the spotlight of the British media after the game.

British media have said in their reports that with Chen Xi's performance last season and this season, he should become this year's Golden Globe winner without any suspense!

Even some media outlets in other European countries have echoed this view, although Chen Xi is the least well-known of the five candidates. But he was the most dominant player in '03!

Of course, the Italian and French media are also cheering on their own players.

In such a situation, the time has finally come to reveal the puzzle!

At 5:45 p.m. local time in France, as the TV station that announced the European Golden Globe Awards every year, French TV Canal+ began to broadcast a 40-minute Golden Globe Interview Program.

"Today, we are here to announce the winners of the 2003 European Golden Globe Awards! Without further ado, let's make clear the new owner of this Golden Globe trophy! He's from ...... Edison of Liverpool FC in England ~~~~ Chen !! ”

When Ernaux made these words and made the results public, Chen Xi in a straight suit appeared in the camera!

All of England and far-flung China were plunged into a frenzied celebration!

Especially China, as a weak football country, Chinese fans never dared to expect such a scene today!

A Chinese actually won the European Golden Ball Award, which symbolizes the highest honor for European football players!?

Such happiness may only be pursued by Chinese fans from Li Huitang's era. There is no doubt that compared to that distant era, the scene of Chen Xi winning the award obviously made Chinese fans more excited!

Last season, Thomas Edison, who played for Tottenham Hotspur, was the top scorer in both the UEFA Cup and the Premier League last season, breaking the single-season scoring record in both competitions. Led Tottenham to a treble! In the second half of 03 years, Edison, who switched to Liverpool, led the Liverpool team to an undefeated record. And top the league and Champions League scorers' charts! Therefore, he is definitely one of the best performers in European football in '03 and he definitely deserves to win the Ballon d'Or! The main achievements of Chen Xi 03 were introduced in the program, and some of Chen Xi's performances in the competition in 03 also appeared on the screen!

Chen Xi also delivered his acceptance speech on the show: "To be honest, when Mr. Ernaux informed me that I had won the European Golden Globe Award, I was in disbelief, but this is the case, the European Golden Globe trophy is now in my hands!" Of course, since they (France Football) chose to award me the Ballon d'Or, it proves that my performance in '03 was recognized by the judges! For me, this trophy is not only an affirmation of my past year, but also a spur to my new year! This is my first world class individual honour, but I am sure it will definitely not be my last! ”

When he said this, Chen Xi's confident and domineering image appeared in the eyes of fans around the world. There is no doubt that from today onwards, his name will spread all over the world and become a real star in the world!

(To be continued)
