Football: The Strongest Hexagon Warrior

The sixth round of the UEFA Champions League in the 2017-2018 season has come to an end, and the dust has settled on the two teams that advanced to the top 6.

The Premier League occupies the most seats, occupying five, nearly 1/3.

The remaining 2/3 seats are shared by La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Portuguese Super League, Swiss Super League, Ukrainian Super League and Turkish Super League.

La Liga occupies three places and Serie A two.

What surprised fans was that last season's major finalists in the Bundesliga and Ligue 1, only Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain, which supported the appearance, advanced to the top 16.

The remaining four seats are Porto, Basel, Shakhtar Donetsk and Besiktas.

The draw will take place on Friday evening at UEFA's headquarters in Nyon.

However, before the draw ceremony for the Champions League 1/8 finals began, "France Football" from Paris, France first attracted the attention of the world.

Previously, "France Football" had announced on its official website and official accounts on major social platforms that the winner of the 12 European Ballon d'Or would be announced on time at 9 pm on December 7.

In fact, there will be no surprises in this award in 2017.

Martin, who dominates Europe, is definitely a well-deserved winner of the new European Ballon d'Or.

Compared with last year when there was still a possibility of suspense, this year's European Ballon d'Or is a certainty.

Last year, Cristiano Ronaldo also won the La Liga title, the European Cup title and the Champions League runner-up. In this non-competition year, Arsenal led by Martin dominated all participating events.

As a star player, he has enough data to support him.

The probability of being elected is infinitely close to 100%.

Starting from 12 pm on December 9, the official website of "France Football" has received a large influx of users.

Obviously, this is waiting for the announcement of the new European Golden Globe Awards.

The person involved, Martin, was not in a hurry at all, because he received a call yesterday from Gérard Aignes, the editor-in-chief of "France Football".

The new European Golden Globe Award has been confirmed.

That's right, it's...himself.

At ten o'clock this morning, I asked for leave to take makeup photos to receive the European Golden Globe Award and to accept related interviews with "France Football".

At seven o'clock that evening, the official website of "France Football" and the official certified accounts of major social platforms announced the winner of the 2017 European Ballon d'Or at the same time.

[Congratulations Martin! Won the 2017 European Ballon d'Or! 】

The accompanying picture is a photo of Martin holding up the golden European Ballon d'Or trophy with Gérard Aignes, editor-in-chief of "France Football".

It didn’t take long for the official accounts of major sports media on social platforms to post simple manuscripts prepared in advance.

Congratulations to Martin for being selected for the 2017 European Ballon d'Or.

"The youngest two-time winner of the European Ballon d'Or since its inception!"

"The new European Ballon d'Or winner has scored 2017 goals in 90, and is only one goal away from Leo Messi's annual goal record of 2012 goals scored in 91. Will good things come in pairs in tomorrow night's game? "

"Incredible achievement! The 21-year-old Martin has reached a new peak in his career!"

"With two consecutive years of invincible performance, he is already the number one player in world football!"

"Mello is old, Martin is king!"

……

Social platforms are also active with a large number of netizens expressing their own opinions.

On this beautiful day, Arsenal fans and Martin fans cheered for joy.

His relatives and friends also immediately sent text messages and WhatsApp messages to congratulate him on winning the European Golden Globe Award.

Those anti-fans stood up and rebelled at an inappropriate time, and naturally they were attacked by a group of people.

Even some neutral fans can't see it.

They are not particularly fans of Martin, but they love watching Martin play.

Martin also pays attention to hot topics on social media. After seeing that he has unknowingly increased his annual goals to 90, he is full of thoughts about tomorrow night's guest game at St. Mary's Stadium.

Breaking Messi's annual goal record in one fell swoop and writing a new chapter in his own history!

The next morning, the Arsenal coaching staff, players and staff gathered at Colney training base to express their congratulations to Martin in person.

Afterwards, the whole team took a bus to Southampton.

The distance between the two places is only over 100 kilometers, which is very convenient.

The most watched matches in the 2017th round of the Premier League in the 2018-16 season were undoubtedly the Merseyside Derby and the Manchester Derby.

Next is Arsenal's visit to challenge Southampton.

The two derbies were played with great passion, but the scores were both 1:1, with each team scoring one point.

At St. Mary's Stadium, Martin, the new European Ballon d'Or winner, made his debut.

After playing this league game, Arsenal will take a flight from London to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, to compete with the semi-finals host team Abu Dhabi Peninsula for a ticket to the final.

Martin won the European Ballon d'Or. Southampton players naturally knew that he had a strong fighting spirit, so they monitored him very closely.

But is Martin so easily restrained?

In the 29th minute of the first half, Sanchez took a corner kick from the right. Van Dijk jumped up high and made a false shot in front of the old point. Martin, who was running ghostly, appeared behind him. Sakura international player Yoshida Maya and Austin was severely left behind. After taking off at the highest point, he twisted his waist and swung his abdomen, and headed the ball into the goal guarded by Foster.

"Goooooooooooooal——"

"Oh My God! 91st goal of the year! Incredible achievement!"

"Super Martin! The new European Ballon d'Or winner! He tied Leo Messi's annual goal record to help Arsenal open the scoring!"

……

"The ball went in! Beautiful header broke the net!"

PP sports commentator Zhan Jun said impassionedly: "Martin scored his 91st goal of the year! He tied Messi's annual goal record set in 2012! There are still six games this year! Two Club World Cups, three games The league and a quarter-final of the EFL Cup! The most important thing is... this game is only half an hour into the first half, and the Arsenal captain still has enough time to set a record!"

The Arsenal fans who traveled with the team, the Arsenal fans and Martin fans in front of the TV were particularly excited at this moment, and almost all of them instinctively shouted with joy.

Each of them said silently: One more!

※※※※※

Southampton, who was sitting at home, conceded a goal first. They took advantage of the kick-off to quickly launch an offensive, trying to launch a mercury-like attack on the goal guarded by Cech.

Arsenal's defense, which had temporarily avoided the edge, was very solid, and Southampton's defense was not broken by the strengthened offensive.

However, a relatively reckless foul by Xhaka knocked down Tadic. Ward-Prowse, who had already become a master of free kicks, seized the free kick opportunity at the edge of the penalty area on the right side.

The football kicked out by his right foot flew in an almost perfect arc in the air, bypassing the fingertips of Cech's left hand that was subconsciously making a save, and grazed the inner edge of the upper middle post of the right goal and hit the snow-white net. The score was evened.

"aoaoaoooooo——"

Ward-Prowse's wonderful free kick helped Southampton equalize the score, and the entire St. Mary's Stadium was completely transformed into a sea of ​​joy.

Unfortunately, the excitement of the home team fans did not last long. In the 42nd minute of the game, Sanchez took the ball in the left rib of the attack and cut inside, causing Hojbjerg to foul.
