Although Zhou Yi can become the final candidate of the three, he has created the history of Chinese football and even Asian football, but everyone still hopes that he can win the highest honor. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Many people even have such an idea in their hearts - last season's Zhou Yi played superbly, led the team to win the Bundesliga championship in honor, completed three consecutive league championships, and won the Big Ears Cup in the Champions League.

Such a great achievement and blinding results are the best opportunity in Zhou Yi's career. This is not a big year like the European Championship and the World Cup, and if he can't win this time, then who knows when the next time will be?

In fact, to put it bluntly, the majority of Chinese fans are still a little unconfident in Zhou Yi, although Zhou Yi is still very young, but everyone always thinks that being able to enter the final list this time is like walking shit luck, and such good luck may not favor Zhou Yi every time.

Since it has appeared, then it should be caught, otherwise there will be no such shop in this village.

But the reality is cruel, it doesn't mean that if you get enough honors, you will definitely win the award.

Many people have this concern, and the reason why they have this concern is because there are similar precedents before.

The 2010 FIFA Ballon d'Or was the first year that FIFA and France Football combined to make the Ballon d'Or a major tournament year with the World Cup.

The final trio for that year's FIFA Ballon d'Or selection were Andres Iniesta, Xavi and Lionel Messi.

Don't look at the final result, just look at this three-person shortlist, anyone who really understands football can see the problem, because in this list of candidates who only the top three in the voting session can enter the final candidate, Dutch midfielder and Inter Milan core Sneijder is not there!

Inter Milan emerged as the biggest winners in that year's European club competition, with Jose Mourinho's side winning the Serie A, Coppa Italia and Champions League, becoming the first treble in Serie A history. Sneijder, the core of the team, is the key figure in why the team can become a treble, and his performance is very good. In the mid-year European Player of the Season awards, Sneijder was the best midfielder ahead of Barcelona's Xavi and Bayern Munich's Dutchman Arjen Robben.

Sneijder's good form continued that year, as he and Arjen Robben led the Dutch national team to the World Cup in South Africa, reaching the final of the World Cup again after the 1978 World Cup in Germany, the best result of the Dutch national team in 32 years. Especially against the favourites Brazil, Sneijder's performance was perfect, when Brazil led in the first half and the situation was very good, it was Sneijder who stepped up and completed the comeback against Brazil with two goals, sending Kaka back to Brazil, and he went all the way to the final.

In the final, the Netherlands and Spain were entangled in extra-time before being defeated by Andres Iniesta's goal. But despite this, Sneijder's performances at that World Cup were perfect. With five goals and one assist, Sneijder used such stats to show everyone that he is the heart and leader of the Dutch national team. He also won the Silver Ball and Bronze Boot at that World Cup.

The honor of the club and the performance of the national team are very good, and such a performance is not far behind compared with Zhou Yi, because with the bonus of the national team competition, it may be more convincing than Zhou Yi's results.

But it is such an outstanding player, at the peak of his career, but he can't even enter the top three in the selection that year...... Isn't that hilarious?

The FIFA Ballon d'Or is a merger of the previous World Footballer of the Year and the Ballon d'Or of "French Football", so the voting method is also a simple and crude addition of the two, but the weight is not considered. The voting method of the reporter of the "French Football" Golden Ball Award and the voting method of the national team head coach + captain of the FIFA World Footballer of the Year are so simple to add, but the number of head coaches and captains of the national team is significantly more than that of media reporters, so the number of votes for the head coach and captain of the national team will be much larger than that of reporters, and their choice will determine the final result.

In the voting session, it can be seen that Sneijder had the highest press turnout, with 7.7 percent of the press votes, but Sneijder's vote for the captain and head coach of the national team was not as good as the final three competitors who finished in the top three, with 3.79 percent and 3 percent respectively.

In the final total vote percentage, Sneijder was fourth with 14.48 percent. And Messi, who ranked first in this competition, received a total of 22.65 percent of the vote, but the media did receive the lowest percentage of the top four votes -- 4.38 percent.

He relied on the votes of the captain of the national team and the head coach of the national team, which were 8.55 percent and 9.72 percent respectively, which was a large margin ahead of the remaining three.

FIFA's voting method has been criticized as unprofessional, which is in stark contrast to the voting method of the Ballon d'Or in France Football back then.

Some people may find it strange that they are all at the level of the head coach and captain of the national team, why is it unprofessional?

The professionalism of the players is reflected in their football skills, but not necessarily in their knowledge of the full range of the game.

It can be said that the captain of a national team may not have as much understanding of the general trend of world football as a Chinese fan who can't even play well.

Not to mention the head coaches and captains of those small and weak football countries. For example, how much do you expect the head coach and captain of the Tonga national team to know about world football? Their football intelligence may rely more on media reports, so the stars who can often appear in the media are naturally the people they know best, such as Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and other world-class superstars.

When it comes time to vote, they don't know anything about the other candidates, and they just pick familiar names to vote, and people like Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo certainly take advantage.

FIFA now has 209 member countries, and the national team coach and captain of each member country have voting rights, which is equivalent to 418 voting qualifications. And what about the media jury on the Golden Globe Awards, where only 53 authoritative media outlets are eligible to vote.

Even if these 53 media reporters all chose Sneijder, they would not be able to match the 418 votes for Messi.

So under such bizarre voting rules, the best player in 2010, Sneijder, humiliatedly didn't even make it to the top three......

Before the final results were released, the top three alone caused a lot of controversy and questioning.

And when the final results came out, almost all the media were dissatisfied - you said that Sneijder didn't make it to the top three and didn't qualify for the final competition, okay. Let's look at the remaining three, Xavi or Iniesta, who led the Spanish national team to win the World Cup, should have a greater chance of winning than Messi, and the qualifications are high, right?

But no, Messi won the final FIFA Ballon d'Or!

When the results were announced, Messi himself was surprised and surprised - he really didn't think he was worthy of the award.

In the World Cup year, the performance in the World Cup is of high reference value, Messi's performance in the World Cup can not be compared with Xavi and Iniesta, he did not score a goal in the World Cup in South Africa, and the Argentine national team led by him was also slaughtered by the German team, how can such a performance be worthy of the Golden Ball Award?

But who calls him the most popular world-class star in the media in recent years, and even known as the third football king?

The media exposure is high, his name frequently appears in various reports, and people who know football know him Messi, who took advantage of the vote......

In this way, Messi controversially won the highest award among individual player accolades that year, the FIFA Ballon d'Or.

Since there is no so-called European Ballon d'Or and FIFA competition, Messi is the one who stood at the top of the world despite professional players that year.

It's certainly unfair, Messi is certainly one of the best players in the world in terms of quality, but with his performances in 2010, he shouldn't have surpassed Sneijder to win this award.

But many years later, when people look up the winners of the 2010 Ballon d'Or, they will only see Messi's name, and the story behind that may not be known to many people. They will take it for granted that Messi won the Ballon d'Or that year because he performed the best that year and was officially recognized.

If such a thing can happen to Sneijder, the core player of the football powerhouse Netherlands, why can't it happen to Zhou Yi, the core player of the Chinese team, a weak football country, three years later?

You know, Sneijder still won the triple crown, and Zhou Yi didn't even win the triple crown.

The only hope they can place in is the authority and impartiality of the journalists of the European Sports Media League, and hope that they will be able to make choices that are in line with their professional evaluation and authority.

However, some people are worried that at this critical juncture, there will be no possibility of racial discrimination? Racial discrimination on the football field has always been very serious, and there is also such a problem in the media dominated by Europe and the United States, and their prejudice against China is only a little more. Think about the London Olympics just past year, which is simply a teaching case of European and American media discriminating against Chinese sports.

Will there be reporters who think that Chinese players do not deserve this honor, and do not want to see Chinese players come to a piece of the pie in football, and choose to vote for Messi or Ribery?

When the results are about to be released, Chinese fans, who have long been inferior in the football world, are extremely sensitive and fragile......
