Chapter 198: The Best in Europe? No, the best in the world...

Grimaldi Convention Centre, Monte Carlo, Principality of Monaco.

The eyes of the world's football media and fans are focused on this tonight.

In addition to the Champions League group draw, last season's European Player of the Year award will also be handed out tonight.

As the number one favorite, Lin Yun was interviewed before the ceremony, and when asked by reporters about whether he was confident of defending the European Player of the Year award, he hypocritically said that there were many players who performed well last season, so he can accept whoever wins and loses.

But in fact, everyone knows that as long as this award is given to anyone other than Lin Yun, it will be the biggest shady in the entire history of football.

"Fellow spectators, welcome to the Grimaldi Convention Centre in Monaco, where the draw for the 2014-15 Champions League group stage will take place.

According to the Champions League draw rules, the round of 32 will be divided into 4 brackets according to UEFA's points system, with the first tier of the seeded teams including last year's champions Arsenal and 7 other teams with higher points......"

"The draw ceremony began, and now on the stage is Lin Yun, the captain of last season's champion Arsenal, who brought the Big Ear Cup back to the scene, and the big screen is playing the process of Arsenal winning the Champions League last season..."

Although many people have watched the game and know how Arsenal's Big Ears Cup came about, when Lin Yun appeared in the video again and again, and turned a team's championship-winning documentary into his own personal show, even the unconvinced president smiled bitterly.

"It's obviously Lin Yun's championship video, what does it have to do with Arsenal?"

"Winning video? It's obviously a god video, right? ”

"This is a god? So what is the World Cup? ”

"Whoever gets Lin Yun wins the world!"

"I'm betting on five cents, this year's Champions League is still Nana's, of course, if Lin Yun is injured or transferred, I didn't say it..."

UEFA's editors are still very level, although the broadcasts are all experienced by Lin Yun himself, but watching from a third perspective is a different feeling after all, plus the rendering of light and shadow technologies such as soundtrack and color, even Lin Yun can't help but have a feeling of "Lao Tzu is such a dick".

The video ended, and the audience burst into applause, but then another documentary was played on the big screen to remember Eusebio and Di Stefano, who died this year.

The departure of the two football legends is undoubtedly a great loss for world football, and the audience watched the documentary in silence, with occasional faint sobs from the audience.

“…… May Heaven be free from pain, and may Heaven have football...... Okay, here we go, the draw will still be presided over by UEFA Secretary General Gianni Infantino and Head of Competition Marchetti, and the guest of honor is German football legend Riddle.

First of all, Lin Yun drew the seeded team of the first grade. ”

Lin Yun was doing this work for the first time, and it felt a little fresh, so he reached out and pulled Bayern out first, and put it in Group E.

Then the second one was drawn out of Arsenal and placed in Group D......

The first team is naturally not easy to mess with, everyone looks at it, it seems that Benfica and Porto are easier to play, and the others are in addition to Bayern and Arsenal that have been drawn, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, etc., one is harder to bite.

However, if you want to rank it, Arsenal and the Western Super League duo definitely don't want to face anyone.

After Lin Yun finished smoking, he walked off the stage with the applause of the audience and came to the seats in the first row.

In addition to him, the top three of Europe's best players this year are Cristiano Ronaldo and Manuel Neuer, who sit on either side of him.

Ronaldo didn't squint, as if he didn't see him, but Neuer, who had been abused by him over and over again, nodded to him in a friendly way.

Neuer also knows that this should be the closest he has to the best player in Europe, born in the same era as this kind of monster, and everyone is only a supporting role.

He is now only hoping that he will not meet Arsenal again in this year's Champions League.

It's acceptable to be a supporting role, but it's still free to be a backdrop...

In the midst of Neuer's ramblings, the on-stage ceremony continued.

The next guest in the draw was Real Madrid legend Hierro.

There are also many strong teams in the second pot, and the most watched Juventus entered Group A and met Atletico Madrid;

Hierro sent Manchester City to Group E and meet Bayern Munich in a narrow way;

Grand Paris is in Group F, the same group as Barcelona;

As for Arsenal's Group D, they welcomed an old rival: Borussia Dortmund......

This was followed by third and fourth pots, with Galatasaray and Anderlecht drawn into Group D where the defending champions are located.

The situation turned around and was given to the coaches in the audience.

It can be seen that Wenger is quite satisfied with the grouping, with a smile on his face, and he looks at the grouping situation on the screen while talking softly to the person next to him.

On the contrary to him is Dort coach Jurgen Klopp, and Uncle Scum's face is expressionless, and he almost carves the words "I'm not happy" on his face.

He would rather be drawn into Real Madrid's Group B or Barcelona's Group F than Group D.

It's not that I'm afraid of Arsenal, but I don't want to meet Lin Yun, or that coaches all over the world don't want to meet this guy......

The audience watching the live broadcast smiled when they saw him.

"Uncle scum, what kind of luck is this? Once a year? ”

"Haha, it's still our Manchester United that is the most stable, and we successfully avoided the round of 32!"

"I just finished playing Germany in the World Cup, and the Champions League is going to be Dort......"

“……”

"Okay, the draw is over, and then it's the UEFA awards ceremony, where there will be awards for the men's and women's player of the year and so on."

The nominees for the Women's Player of the Year were Kessler, Muller and Fisher, all three of whom were from Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg...... Congratulations to Nadine. Kessler won the Women's Player of the Year honor. ”

Next up is the men's award of the year, with candidates for Lin Yun, Cristiano Ronaldo and Manuel Neuer.

Like the best women's football player, the votes of the three were cast on the spot.

Lin Yun's achievements do not need to be repeated, the team achievements have won five crowns, including the Champions League and the World Cup, and the personal honors are the European Golden Boot Award, the Champions League Goalscorer King, the Premier League Goalscorer King, the World Cup Golden Boot, etc., which is definitely the most eye-catching existence in world football this year......

Okay, the voting is on...... Congratulations Lin Yun! Winner of the UEFA Player of the Year award! ”

"This should be the most unsuspenseful award ceremony, Lin Yun won this award again with a crushing advantage, after all, everyone knows that he is not only the best in Europe, but also the best in the world..."

The UEFA Ballon d'Or was made to compete with the FIFA Ballon d'Or, and at first it was decent, but after a few sessions, it still couldn't shake the status of the Ballon d'Or, and now it's basically like that.

At the dinner after the ceremony, Lin Yun naturally became the focus of the audience.

The coaches of the major giants, you sang and I appeared on the stage, and I didn't give up on hooking up.

Arsene Wenger didn't leave an inch, his eyes widened like brass bells, and he looked more nervous than when he was directing the Champions League final...
