The days of playing football with Da Luo

Chapter 459 2007 World Footballer
"I don't know who will become the World Player of the Year tonight," Ricardo said frankly. "Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka have performed very well this past year. If I can't win the award, I don't have anything. I've tried my best."

When asked who he would least like to encounter in the next Champions League knockout draw, Ricardo replied: "We are confident that we will collide with any team, because we are Real Madrid, because we have Ronnie. But if it is not If I have to say, I don’t want to meet Inter Milan. I still love the blue and black. If I must meet Inter Milan, I hope it will be in the final.”

Interestingly, when Ronaldo answered this question, the answer was "Real Madrid and Barcelona."

Kaka's answer is: "AC Milan. They were last year's champions, and they are still strong contenders for the championship this year."

That night, the Zurich Opera House, the scene of the awards ceremony.

When Riccardo received the gold cup, there was warm applause from the audience.Riccardo stood there, a little dazed, all this was too similar to last year.

And from now on, I will strive to come back here every year.

He said this speech very simply, and only slightly modified his acceptance speech for the Golden Globe Award and used it.

When he won the award for the first time last year, he was really excited, as if he was in the clouds.

But this time, everything was going well, and he felt very peaceful.It's not that I'm unhappy, it's just that I take it for granted.

If you don't choose yourself, who else can you choose?
Not the slightest surprise.

And when Kaka and Ronaldo held up the silver cup and the bronze cup to take a photo with him respectively beside him, a classic photo was frozen.

"The top three most handsome world footballers in history", many media used this title afterwards.

"Their skills may be surpassed by others, but the appearance of these three people, it is estimated that there will not be a top three World Footballer of the Year who can surpass them in a hundred years."

Kaka's face was full of smiles, but Licado could also see a trace of loneliness in his eyes.Of course he also wanted to win this award.

Although the two are good friends, Kaka also has pursuits and ideals, and is unwilling to always be inferior to others.

Then compete, bro, healthy competition.

And next year's World Footballer and Ballon d'Or, with Ronaldo's state this season, is likely to be one of the strong contenders.

The current football world is so lively!

Compared with Melo's struggle for hegemony in another time and space, football is really more beautiful when all flowers bloom!
Returning to Madrid, Ricardo did not stop at the joy of winning the prize, and soon put himself into training.

Their next league opponent is Barcelona.

Barcelona's record this season is not very good. The conflict between Ronaldinho and Rijkaard is well known to everyone, which has seriously affected the team's combat effectiveness.

And Ronaldinho's state is also declining sharply. He has gained a few pounds after being addicted to nightclubs. He seems to have lost most of his spirituality when playing football, and his explosive power has also been greatly affected. Compared with his peak period, his threat is at least stronger fold in half.

To make matters worse, Messi is injured and will miss the game.

Although the game was played at Camp Nou, the neutral media was not very optimistic about Barcelona.

在迄今为止的16轮联赛中，巴塞罗那10胜4平2负，积34分排在联赛第三。

Real Madrid has 12 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, leading the standings with 39 points.

If Barcelona can win this game at home, it can make up a little bit of the gap.But if they draw or lose, the second half of the league will be even more difficult for them.

This round of the league is also the last round of the league before the winter break. No matter what the result is, Real Madrid has already determined to become the half-time champion of the league.

In this regard, Pellegrini said at the press conference before the game: "What kind of half-time championship has no meaning. Our goal is the championship, and we will not stop until we achieve this goal. Fighting in the Nou Camp It will be difficult, but we are not afraid. Now Real Madrid has the confidence to fight any strong team in the world."

"At the Nou Camp, we have to compete with the opponent's attacking ability. I believe that Real Madrid's firepower is irresistible to Barcelona."

However, at 12:23 on the evening of December 19, after the game officially started, people found that Real Madrid played a defensive counterattack...

The two wingers, Ricardo and Raul, who played as a right winger, were very deep. The two full backs Heinze and Ramos hardly attacked halftime, and the midfielders Diarra and Baptista also did not attack. Rarely press on.

Barcelona's lineup today is still luxurious.They have a 433 formation, goalkeeper Valdes, Puyol at right back, Abidal at left back - arguably one of the best left backs in the world right now, Gabi Milito and Marcos at center back .The defensive midfielder Yaya Toure, the midfielders Deco and Xavi, Iniesta and Ronaldinho separated from the left and right, and Eto'o came forward.

The star flavor of this lineup is no worse than that of Real Madrid.

In the real competition on the court, Barcelona gradually gained a slight but real advantage with the help of the home court advantage.

Just like every national derby, the two sides fought fiercely in this game. If there is any disagreement, there will be a gesture of white knife in and red knife out. opportunities, so that it is difficult for both parties to find the perfect opportunity.

Relatively speaking, this style of play is more harmful to Barcelona, ​​​​because they prefer complex and smooth coordination, but so far, their pass success rate is less than 80%.However, due to their home court advantage, they were able to maintain their advantage.

It was the home team who played a threatening attack for the first time. In the 14th minute, Eto'o and Ronaldinho had a series of collisions with the wall. Casillas hit the baseline sideways.

Then Real Madrid missed a chance to take the lead. Ricciardo's free kick flew into the penalty area. Valdez tried to get the ball but made a fatal mistake. He missed it.The late Ramos headed the football to the empty goal, but under the interference, his movements were deformed, and the football deviated from the goal and missed the opportunity.

In the following period of time, Riccardo, Kaka, Ronaldinho and Eto'o all had good performances, but their shots failed to achieve results in the end. They were either blocked by the defender or confiscated by the goalkeeper.

The fans in the stands forgot to breathe from time to time. The game was played too tightly and intensely, and every second was full of dry stuff, making people reluctant to blink.

Although it can't be said how exciting it is, such a passionate game is enough to attract fans.
