Although Everton are still ahead of Liverpool in the league standings, this game is still a small upset.

Of course, except for Liverpool, the heat of this cold news in other places was quickly diluted.

The winner of this year's "Golden Boy Award" has been released - Rooney!

The 19-year-old Rooney won the 2004 Ballon d'Or from Torino Sport, also known as the "European Golden Boy" because it is only awarded to players under the age of 21 from all over Europe.

Rooney was elected after beating opponents such as Manchester United teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, Atletico Madrid goalscorer Fernando Torres, Inter Milan's Martins and Anderlecht's Vincent Kompany.

Last year, the award was presented for the first time, and it was won by Van der Vaart from Ajax.

The news brought Fleet Street to a climax, after all, there are so few international accolades won by England players.

Just as England are the favourites to win every World Cup and European Championship but have no chance of reaching the last four, and even the quarter-finals are rare, Great Britain's world-class stars rarely win the Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year.

Irving's 2001 Golden Globe was preceded by Keegan's 1979 Golden Globe, and further back in ancient times, of course, those discussions are really meaningless......

The selection of the "Golden Boy Award" was selected by 30 well-known media outlets across Europe, and the maximum score of each player was 10 points, and Rooney was given a perfect score by Italy's "Milan Sport" and "Roma Sport".

The most interesting thing is that Spain's "Marca" and "As" newspapers actually gave Rooney a score of 0, perhaps because of Rooney's rough performance in the recent Spain vs England friendly match. Even so, Rooney's final total score of 233 is still 40 points higher than that of second-placed Cristiano Ronaldo.

Rooney's Golden Boy Award can be said to be full of gold, and it is no wonder that the English are so happy that they have finally produced a young genius who is not purely touted by himself.

And three days later, the real Ballon d'Or, that is, the European Footballer of the Year award by "French Football", was announced, and no English player had any hope of winning it, and the most promising Beckham had a much darker performance on the pitch than during the Manchester United period after he left Real Madrid, and he was getting farther and farther away from the Ballon d'Or.

The Ballon d'Or favourites are also sidelined by Thierry Henry, who led Arsenal to the Premier League title and is unbeaten in 49 games, and he himself has been the Premier League's top scorer in a row, but unfortunately not the English.

This also made the attention of the English media more focused on Rooney.

Zhao Yuyu was secretly relieved about the current situation.

As Christmas approaches, other European leagues such as the Bundesliga have entered the winter break, Serie A has one more round, and then La Liga and Ligue 1 will also enter.

The exception is the Premier League, which is the most intensive schedule of fixtures in the cold winter when players from other leagues are moving to warmer places for Christmas and New Year's Day, and back-to-back games are commonplace.

In the face of such a reality, the seven- or eight-day gap brought about by the European football awards season and the international break is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for Premier League players to rest and recuperate.

Of course, such an opportunity simply does not exist for Liverpool.

In the third round of the Premier League, which was postponed for participating in the Champions League qualifying round, Liverpool's match against Portsmouth is about to take place.

Including the just-concluded Merseyside derby will be held early, resulting in Liverpool players not having a chance to recover at all, all because of the existence of this make-up match.

It's a pity that Liverpool can't say anything as a victim, who made them only fourth in the league last season and have to play in the Champions League qualification? This is deserved.

If you want to say wronged, Liverpool's opponent Portsmouth in this round of supplementary matches is even more wronged, and for no reason there is such a game in this cold winter......

This makes Liverpool's players, including Zhao Yuyu, very eager to have a quiet preparation environment.

In this accidentally lost the derby, which led to Gerrard's inappropriate remarks, which was picked up by the media and reported it loudly:

'Like Gerrard said, Liverpool aren't going to be the real favourites for any trophy'

'Steven Gerrard's chapter at Liverpool should be over. The result of this match is more convincing than the ruble from west London or the euro from the Spanish capital."

Or:

"Gravison taught the egotistical Gerard"

"Danish performances are more influential"

……

Soon after the competition, similar reports flooded the Internet, and it is expected that the print media, which is the main force of the media, will also be quoted in tomorrow's report.

Now, Rooney has actually won the Golden Boy Award, which has captured most of the media's attention at once.

It was a huge surprise.

Rooney, of course, has been significantly ahead of his peers in their reporting, but are they unclear about their own advocacy skills?

How many up-and-coming spiky horns have been touted by them as peerless geniuses?

If you don't count it carefully, it's really unclear!

Over time, in order to attract attention, the sky on their lips is falling, and in the depths of their hearts, they will never admit it, they simply do not believe what they say.

That's why Rooney's big lead over second place and winning the Golden Boy Award will give them this kind of surprise that is almost out of shape.

……

After confirming that the wind direction on the Internet had indeed changed, Zhao Yuyu stepped into the bath bucket with confidence, the medicinal bath had not been carried out for a long time, and now he took it out again, and it was said that Yang Lao had replaced several medicinal materials......

……

After the full treatment, Zhao Yuyu went home peacefully, enjoyed a second dinner in the company of his parents, and went to sleep.

In addition to the lack of victory, it was another perfect day......

When he woke up, Zhao Yuyu, who rarely had a day to rest, planned to enjoy this rare leisure.

After the necessary workout, lie down on a rocking chair by the pool, cover yourself with a thick blanket and close your eyes, even when there is no warm sun, you can always feel comfortable......

A sound of footsteps interrupted Shu Shuang, Zhao Yuyu opened one eye, and Li Hongbo, who he hadn't seen for several days, stood beside him.

"Why are you lying here on this cold day, auntie?"

"They're going to visit the cathedral, aren't they?" Zhao Yuyu replied to his cousin's, and sat up a little reluctantly:

"Why did you come here at this time, is there something wrong?"

"I'm here to say goodbye, everything here has been arranged, and I have to go back to China," Li Hongbo sat down on the chair next to him:

"The integration of domestic business must be carried out, and it is inconvenient to command remotely after all."

"Oh." Zhao Yuyu nodded, this matter has been said for a long time, but there is no surprise.

"I still want to make sure, the focus is on the operation of the Assured Charity Fund and the construction of your training base?"

"Yes," Zhao Yuyu affirmed without thinking: "The fund must run healthily, at the base in my hometown, my father said that the infrastructure is almost completed, in addition to my own training, I want to form an amateur league within the scope of the kite, and the preliminary preparation in this regard is the focus." ”

"As for the business side ......"

"There's really no effort in this regard," Li Hongbo himself picked up: "Born in China, although the national team results are not very good, but the benefits are more, and the money will run into your pocket!" ”

"The screening of partners must be rigorous!" Zhao Yuyu reminded.

"Of course, style must not be lost." Li Hongbo agreed.
