Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 367 Golden Boy Award

Dynamo Kiev was sent away 5-0. After qualifying for the UEFA Champions League two rounds ahead of schedule, Manchester United beat the visiting Blackburn 2-0 in the weekend league and won three consecutive victories in all competitions, firmly occupying the points top position.

Yu Liang and King Dong started together in this game.

In the first half, Yu Liang sent an assist, and Rooney scored from the penalty area to help Manchester United take the lead.Not long after the start of the second half, King Dong received a pass from Rooney in the frontcourt, broke into the penalty area and pushed a shot from the far corner to expand the score.

Yu Liang and Dong Wangwang, who performed well, accepted interviews from domestic media after the game.

After some compliments, the reporters directly asked questions about the Golden Boy Award.

"Golden Boy Award?"

Yu Liang glanced at King Dong beside him, looking at the reporter, with a dazed expression on his face.

He didn't even know that he was shortlisted for the 40-man Golden Boy Award, and he didn't even know that he was shortlisted for the top three Golden Boy Awards before the game. He will compete with Aguero from Atletico Madrid and Messi from Barcelona for this year's Golden Boy prize.

In fact, the domestic media did not know that Yu Liang was shortlisted for the Golden Boy Award. They got the news from China after Global Sports broadcasted the match between Manchester United and Dynamo Kiev.The reason why they didn't pay attention to this news was because they didn't believe that a player from China could be shortlisted for this award. They just browsed the list of 40 people and put it aside.More importantly, the domestic media paid more attention to the national team some time ago, so they were negligent.

"Yes, you are in the top three and will compete with Messi and Aguero for the golden boy!"

Hearing what the reporter said, Yu Liang believed that the news was true, and a joyful smile appeared on his face.

The Golden Boy Award is known as the Golden Globe Award under the age of 21. Being shortlisted in the top three not only means honor, but also symbolizes a bright future.

"congratulations!"

Standing beside Yu Liang, King Dong immediately sent his blessing. He is very happy that his friend can achieve such an achievement!
Yu Liang also accepted King Dong's blessing very calmly.

"Do you think you can beat them to this honor?"

The reporter asked a difficult question for Yu Liang.

The Golden Boy Award was founded by the Italian newspaper Turin Sports in 2003. Every year, the Turin Sports Daily will send ballots to more than 20 authoritative sports media in Europe, and then more than 30 journalists will cast ballots. Each ballot can cast up to [-] points , and then the Turin Sports News is responsible for counting the scores and issuing them.

He doesn't know whether his performance can conquer the [-] media, and he doesn't even know how his competitors have performed in the past year.

So Yu Liang cleverly kicked the question back, "Do you think I can beat them?"

The fact that the reporters are asking such questions now shows that they must have been fully prepared in private.

Sure enough, after Yu Liang asked back, the reporter pondered for a while, and said very sincerely: "It is quite difficult! First of all, your performance in the league last season was not particularly stable, but the crazy performance at the end of the season should give you Extra points, especially the two Champions League games against Milan. Secondly, your performance in the national team is blank, while Aguero participated in the summer World Youth Championship and won the best player and top scorer award title!"

When it came to this, the reporter couldn't help but sighed.

Two years ago, the National Youth Team became a blockbuster in the World Youth Championship, winning the No.3 good result and creating the best record in history.But what about two years later?Even the threshold of the World Youth Championship can't be touched.

If Yu Liang is selected for the National Youth Team, will this situation still occur?

After sighing, the reporter went on to say: "Messi's performance in Barcelona last season was amazing, with 14 goals and 2 assists in the league. And more importantly, in this summer's Copa America, Messi They also performed very well, and were finally shortlisted for the best team. This is their biggest weight for being shortlisted for the Golden Boy Award, and it is also your biggest shortcoming!"

Listening to the reporter's analysis, Yu Liang also understood that he and the Golden Boy were basically out of luck.

"The most important thing is to participate, the most important thing is to participate. It is quite good to be shortlisted in the top three. You have created the history of Chinese football!"

Immediately after the reporter finished speaking, he comforted Yu Liang there.

In fact, after the top three of the Golden Boy Awards came out, the major media have been optimistic about Aguero.First of all, he performed well in Atletico Madrid, and secondly, the best player and top scorer in the World Youth Championship gave him a lot of points. Didn't Messi win the championship in one fell swoop by virtue of his outstanding performance in the World Youth Championship in 2005?
"Ugh, but your performance is also excellent! In our mind, you are the best player!"

Finding the atmosphere a bit awkward, the reporter quickly added.

"Thank you!"

After thanking the reporter with a smile, Yu Liang left the court.

After taking a shower in the locker room, Yu Liang hitched a ride home.

Listening to the reporter's analysis, Yu Liang also knew that his chances of winning the Golden Boy Award were very small, so he couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

This was the first time in his life that he was so close to personal honor.

"Wang..."

When they arrived at the door of the house, the two golden retrievers happily ran to Yu Liang, shaking their heads and tails around Yu Liang.

Looking at the two golden retrievers having fun, Yu Liang's inner regret eased a little.Throwing the backpack on the sofa, Yu Liang came directly to the backyard with the football and two golden retrievers in his arms.

"Rhubarb, chase after!"

A shot went straight to the goal, and the golden retriever called Big Yellow quickly chased after the football, and returned to Yu Liang with the football on his back after a while.

After touching Rhubarb's head and stuffing Rhubarb with a snack, Yu Liang kicked the ball towards the goal again.

This time it was Xiao Huang who was chasing after the football. After a while, Xiao Huang also pushed the football back, and Yu Liang also gave Xiao Huang a snack.

In the afternoon, Yu Liang spent time with the two golden retrievers in the backyard like this.

After dinner, Yu Liang spent an hour in the gym before returning to his room.

Yu Liang, who was sleeping in a daze late at night, was awakened by the ringing of the phone.

"Master, if you don't give me a reason to wake me up, I'll kill you!"

"Hey, I didn't expect that this little guy is still a bad temper!"

The editor-in-chief of Turin Sports News held the phone and said to his colleagues with a smile.

They had just finished counting the votes of more than 30 reporters. Yu Liang defeated Aguero, who was the most popular, and won the Golden Boy Award with a slight advantage.

The editor-in-chief of the Turin Sports News also notified Yu Liang immediately, because they will rush to Manchester to do an exclusive interview with him, and then it will be on the headlines tomorrow.

"Hello, Yu, I'm the editor-in-chief of Turin Sports News, I think you should be able to accept the next reason for waking you up. Congratulations, you won the 2007 European Golden Boy Award!"
