Chapter 846 The Tragic Story Between Me and Su Dong

With the release of the first FIFA Ballon d'Or, overnight, the world's media once again pushed Su Dong into the limelight.

Regarding Su Dong's winning this honor again, the media and fans generally gave affirmative responses, but there are also certain controversies, mainly due to the lack of performance of the Su Dong national team.

In the past, it was not a big competition year, and the winners were more based on club competitions, especially the UEFA Champions League, so Su Dong deserved the award. But this year is the World Cup year, and the competition years are often based on the national team competitions.

If it is based on the performance of the World Cup, there is no doubt that the Spanish internationals Xavi and Iniesta who played for Barcelona are well-deserved favorites. Xavi is the core of the midfield, and Iniesta scored the lore goal in the final.

Unexpectedly, it was Su Dong who won the award in the end.

This has to be said, and it can be regarded as a big "unpopular".

The so-called unpopularity does not mean that no one is optimistic about Su Dong. On the contrary, many media and professionals are optimistic about Su Dong before the game, thinking that his performance in the club, especially the great achievements of leading Bayern Munich to successfully defend the Triple Crown, are unique in the history of world football and can be called great.

In addition, after he joined Manchester City, his state has also improved all the way, and his performance is very good.

It can be said that purely from the performance point of view, there is no doubt that Su Dong won the award.

The unpopularity is the unpopularity. In the World Cup year, Su Dong's national team performance was blank, which made his award naturally accompanied by controversy. After all, Spain's two major contributors to the World Cup also reached the top three in the Golden Globe Awards.

After FIFA announced that Su Dong won the award, he quickly announced the votes on the official website. There is no doubt that Su Dong won the award, and many media have also revealed more inside stories, such as the relatively more weighty votes of the national team coaches and captains of the top ten traditional teams.

According to media statistics, in the selection of the national team head coaches of the top ten traditional teams, Su Dong got eight first choices and one second choice, while in the top ten national team head coach choices, Su Dong got seven first choices and one third choice.

As we all know, in the votes of the national team, players from their own country cannot be selected.

Dutch coach Van Marwijk and captain Van Bommel both violated this rule. They both chose Sneijder as the first option, van Marwijk chose Sudong as the second option, and Van Bommel chose Robben in this option, putting Sudong as the third option.

The current situation in Argentina is relatively chaotic. The national team coach Maradona dismissed get out of class, and the captain was temporarily vacant, so none of them participated in the voting this time, so they were vacant.

Among the top ten captains, there is another vote that does not even rank Su Dong in the top three, and that is Robinho, the captain of the Brazilian national team.

Robinho gave Messi the first option, Harvey the second option and Iniesta the third option.

The Brazilian captain said in an interview with the Brazilian media that he believes that in the big competition year, more consideration should be given to the performance from the national team level, while Sudong is blank in this regard.

But the problem is that Messi is not ideal in the national team, why put Messi as the first option?

Robinho was a little speechless, and finally he said that he didn't like Su Dong.

This is another sad sad story.

If you really want to say, it has to start when Robinho landed in Real Madrid, and then the tragic experience in Manchester City.

If the story of Robinho and Su Dong was written into a book, it would definitely not be a competitive novel, but a novel about women.

……

Whether it is from the final votes or the votes from the top ten football powers, Sudong deserves the award.

Controversies from the outside world certainly exist, but they are more affirmative. After all, Su Dong’s achievements in the past year are astonishing.

Cruyff, the godfather of Barcelona, ​​expressed his affirmation of Su Dong's award in the column. At the same time, he believes that Su Dong can win at least three more Ballon d'Ors in his career.

Judging from his age, resume and ability, he can do it completely.

Of course, in order to achieve this, he must lead Manchester City to rise, and even complete the legend created by Maradona in Naples in Manchester City, even more legendary than Maradona back then.

That is the Champions League!
Judging from Manchester City's performance this season, the possibility of winning the championship is still very high.

At present, Manchester City's biggest challenge is no longer its competitors, but how to continue to maintain its leading edge in the Premier League, especially after the Christmas Devil's schedule, the team's physical fitness and recovery, as well as the next winter break schedule, these are huge challenges.

The scary thing about the Premier League is that the Christmas schedule is only a part, and the winter break is only a part. Under the influence of various factors, after the team started two-line or even multi-line combat in February, the decline in physical fitness and state followed, which was the most troublesome.

This is what Ferguson has been emphasizing before. He firmly believes that Manchester City will lose points in the Christmas and winter break schedule, and Manchester United will complete the catch-up to Manchester City in March and April.

In March and April, this has always been a watershed for Manchester United to reverse their opponents in the standings.

It can be said that Ferguson's remarks succeeded in part, and Manchester City really lost points on Christmas.

But the [-]-[-] rout of Arsenal gave Manchester City confidence, and the team's massive signings during the winter break also increased the thickness of the team's bench.

Everyone believes that the team will do a lot next.

…………

…………

On the afternoon of January [-]th, Manchester's Etihad Stadium.

In the No.20 three rounds of the Premier League, Manchester City played against Wolves at home.

As the first star in the history of Manchester City to win the Ballon d'Or, Su Dong is bound to be included in the history of Manchester City with this honor, and Manchester City fans are also extremely excited about this.

As early as after the awards ceremony in Zurich, Manchester City fans spontaneously came to the Etihad Stadium, calling on the club to hold celebrations, and at the same time went to the Carrington training base to congratulate Sudong on winning his first Golden Globe in Manchester City.

Interestingly, this also happens to be the inaugural FIFA Ballon d'Or.

Manchester City officials humbly listened to the opinions of the fans. Before the game against Wolves, they specially held a brief Golden Globe presentation ceremony for Su Dong.

Witnessed by more than 4 Manchester City fans at the scene, in the live broadcast of Sky TV, Su Dong held up the Golden Globe Award he had just won from Zurich in the live broadcast of Sky TV. Behind him, David Silva and Pepe held two trophies of Team of the Year and Puskas respectively, followed Su Dong and entered the stadium.

Manchester City fans in the entire Etihad Stadium spontaneously stood up and gave Su Dong the warmest applause and cheers.

This is the first Ballon d'Or award in the history of Manchester City, and it is also the second highest FIFA award in the history of the Premier League.

Before Su Dong, the Premier League's first World Player of the Year came from Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo.

Now, Manchester City also has its own Mr. Golden Ball!

The entire Etihad Stadium was shouting Su Dong's name, and all Manchester City fans fell into a carnival.

……

The atmosphere before the game was enthusiastic, but during the game, the Wolves were clearly here to tear things apart.

In the No. 12 minute of the game, Wolves wide player Hunter made a counterattack and broke directly behind Marcelo into the bottom line forward pass, creating a close-range shot for his teammates and breaking Manchester City's goal.

But before the end of the first half, Su Dong's shot created a corner kick. Pepe, who had made a mistake just now, made atonement and successfully equalized the score for Manchester City.

After the first half ended with a score of one to one, Manchester City played a wave of offensive after changing sides in the second half.

In just 3 minutes, Di Maria made a pass from the left. After Su Dong dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he passed three opponents in a row and calmly scored with a one-handed shot. The score was reversed for Manchester City, [-]-[-]!

Just 5 minutes later, after Su Dong and Sanchez hit the wall consecutively, they created a chance. Toni Kroos stepped in and pulled the lever to further expand the score for Manchester City, [-] to [-]!

Subsequently, Manchester City firmly controlled the situation on the field and frequently created threats.

No.605 minutes, Manchester City won a corner kick.

Instead of sending the corner into the penalty area, David Silva made a tactical corner kick and passed the ball quickly to Zabaleta.

After the Argentine right back stopped the ball on the right side of the penalty area, he made a slight adjustment and sent a cross, which fell into the middle of the penalty area.

Su Dong leaped high and hit the goal with a header, making another victory for Manchester City.

Four to one!

…………

…………

In the No.20 round of the Premier League, Manchester City challenged Aston Villa away.

Due to the intensive schedule during the winter break, Guardiola has rotated the team lineup.

Su Dong sat on the bench, new aid Dzeko made his first start, and several new aids including David Luiz also played.

The game was still firmly controlled by Manchester City and the pace of the ball, but the offensive performance was still relatively rusty. The cooperation between Dzeko and his teammates was not tacit enough. Although he created several threats, he still failed to convert them into goals.

Instead, in the No. 18 minute, the opponent seized the opportunity, Abanglahuo counterattacked with the ball, and Darren Bent opened the scoring for Aston Villa.

Four minutes later, Manchester City took advantage of a corner kick and Kompany scored a header for Manchester City, successfully tying the score.

Subsequently, although Manchester City continued to attack and try to attack, they still failed to break through Aston Villa's goal.

Finally, in the away game, Manchester City drew [-]-[-] with Aston Villa.

……

After the game, due to Manchester United's continuous victories from the Christmas schedule to the winter break, Ferguson's team was invincible, while Manchester City dropped points again and again, and the gap between the two sides continued to narrow.

The outside world is more worried about the situation of Manchester City, but Guardiola said in an interview with the media that there is no so-called crisis in Manchester City. He firmly believes that the team can overcome the pressure of the Christmas and winter break schedule.

At the same time, Manchester City also firmly believes that rotation is necessary.

Even if you lose points, you must insist on rotation. If you don't rotate, with the schedule of the Premier League, the team will definitely collapse in March and April.

Physical fitness is simply too much, what will I use to hit the championship?
