Midfielder Ruler

Chapter 50 Today's Golden Boy, Tomorrow's Golden Ball?

Tang Zheng won the European Golden Boy Award. If there are supporters, there will naturally be doubters.

The support faction headed by German media, Chinese media and Argentine media competed fiercely on the Internet with the skeptical faction formed by Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport. The former believed that Tang Zheng deserved his name, while the latter believed that there were no European competitions. Tang Zheng's appearance record was not convincing.

What made Gazzetta dello Sport even more unacceptable was the final selection score. Tang Zheng got 147 points and Pato got 142 points.

The difference between the two is not obvious, half of a ten-point vote, that is to say, if an authoritative media that did not vote ten-ten for Tang Zheng and Pato switches to one of them, the other will lose the European Golden Boy Award.

How could such a close scoring result convince the Gazzetta dello Sport, which supports Pato?

Especially with Kaka and Zlatan Ibrahimovic leaving Serie A this summer, the star flavor of Serie A has dropped to the lowest point in history. Is it necessary to let the quality of Serie A stars also decline?

Of course, the expressions of Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport in this regard are relatively tactful. After all, the departure of Kaka and Ibrahimovic is directly related to the desolation of Serie A. It's no longer attractive.

When the two media made strong comments on Tang Zheng's election to the European Golden Boy Award, Tang Zheng, accompanied by sports director Zorc and head coach Klopp, accepted the press conference at the Westfalen Stadium. The trophy symbolizing the European Golden Boy Award presented by Paulo Drapau, editor-in-chief of Torino Sport - a golden ball similar to the Golden Globe winner.

The reporters who came to the Westphalon Press Release Center immediately pressed the shutter in their hands.

The shooting sound of click, click, click kept ringing, and the flash frequently flashed indoors.

Among the media present, the Chinese media are the craziest, and they have the largest number of people.

Their eyes were full of fiery light, looking at Tang Zheng who was holding the Golden Boy Award trophy, they even began to look forward to the possible scene in the future.

European Golden Globe Awards!

World Footballer!

Holding the Golden Boy Award trophy in both hands, Tang Zheng kept smiling, and at the same time he said humorously to the camera: Remember to make me look handsome, otherwise I will complain to you.

Immediately, countless reporters burst into laughter.

Work, sometimes need to relax.

After the filming ended, Tang Zheng began to accept interviews from the media present.

As for the exclusive interview with Turin Sports News, it will be held in a quieter infield after the special media interviews are over. The reporters who will be interviewing at that time will also be Dortmund's official website reporters.

The interview questions Tang Zheng received from the media at the beginning were quite reasonable, and they basically revolved around his feelings about winning the European Ballon d'Or, what he would do in the future, and so on.

But when it was the turn of Gazzetta dello Sport, the atmosphere at the press conference changed immediately. He asked: Judging from the scoring results that just came out, you don't have many points ahead, and throughout 2009, Pato did not Playing in Europe, but most of your ratings came from South America in the first half of the year, do you have a feeling of invincibility?

Hearing this, the smile on Tang Zheng's face visibly froze.

Not only that, Gazzetta dello Sport and other media reporters who supported Tang Zheng raised their brows, because the question from Gazzetta dello Sport was very rude, like a fly that suddenly fell out of a delicious meal. People feel sick.

Joseph Schneck, Dortmund's press officer, reacted quickly. He rushed ahead of the dissatisfied Chinese media and said: Please ask the next one...

However, the moment Joseph Schneck finished speaking, the smile on Tang Zheng's face resumed. He stretched out his hand to interrupt, and then said to the middle-aged reporter of Gazzetta dello Sport: This question is very important. Very good, very level, but I want to tell you! Not to mention any data for the first half of this year,

Just look at the relevant data of the 2009-2010 season, and you will know who performed better.

After all, he said again with an emphasis: So... I am the golden boy of Europe!

The Chinese media and German media sitting in the reporter's question area applauded!

In fact, if you don't look at the data in the first half of this year, Tang Zheng's data this season are all ahead of Pato.

Although the number of goals is less than that of Pato, but the statistics of assists, opportunities created, running distance, frontal interception, and even breakthrough success rate are much more than Pato.

In fact, the most important thing is that so far in Tang Zheng's starting games, Dortmund remains unbeaten!

The best player in Europe under the age of 21, well deserved!

Of course, if you want to talk about goals. Tang Zheng looked at the reporter of Gazzetta dello Sport and said jokingly: I am... the golden boy of Europe, I deserve it.

Suddenly, Tang Zheng caused another burst of laughter from everyone.

The Gazzetta dello Sport reporter frowned unwillingly, but had no basis to refute.

As a professional football media, they naturally collected the specific data of the two. Tang Zheng and Pato's corresponding data this season, apart from scoring goals, Tang Zheng has an overwhelming advantage...

In the subsequent questions from reporters, due to the failure of Gazzetta dello Sport, everyone’s questions were relatively peaceful. After all, the results have come out, and the questioning will not lead to this year’s European golden boy changing hands. What about things?

Coupled with Tang Zheng's performance in the Bundesliga this season is really good, the success in the first half of the year in River Plate can only be said to make him more convincing for the European Golden Boy Award, nothing more.

Hi...Don! Congratulations on being the first player to win the 2019 World Cup after Raphael van der Vaart, Wayne Rooney, Leo Messi, Francisco Fabregas, Sergio Aguero and Anderson. The seventh European Golden Boy Award. Turin Sport editor-in-chief Paul De Paula stretched out his right hand in the inner room of Westphalia.

Tang Zheng looked down at the glittering golden ball, and stretched out his right hand: I'm very happy to be awarded this year's European Golden Boy Award. I will miss this honor at the age of 21 next year, so I won this trophy at this time. I'm very proud and proud to be here ... and I'm very grateful to the media who voted for me.

Having said that, Tang Zheng looked up at Paul De Paula, and said with a smile: Of course, the most important thing is to thank your newspaper for setting up an award that reflects the value of young players. Thank you very much.

Paul De Paula first smiled, and then glanced at Tang Zheng unexpectedly.

He has interviewed six European Golden Boy Award winners in the past. Except for Messi, only Tang Zheng in front of him expressed this way. They basically all centered on their winning the award, so Paul De Paula is more optimistic about Tang Zheng's future development. prospect.

Perhaps four years later, he will be able to win the European Ballon d'Or like Messi today.

Immediately, he talked about whether Tang Zheng won the Golden Boy Award, whether he hopes to win the Golden Globe Award in the future, and whether it means that he has grown from a new star to a superstar.

Of course! I also hope that one day I can win the European Ballon d'Or. Tang Zheng said without hesitation: This year, Messi won the European Golden Ball award from French Football. Four years ago, he won the European Golden Globe Award. The Children's Award also fully shows that the media that selects the European Golden Boy Awards has a unique vision and is extremely valuable. Winning the Golden Globe Award is the honor that every professional player dreams of, and so do I!

At the right time, I took a flattery.

The next day, Turin Sports Gazette published the entire content of their exclusive interview with Tang Zheng.

Torino Sport has a very high evaluation of Tang Zheng. The editor-in-chief Paul De Paula said in his column: There is no shortage of talents in the green field. From the perspective of the entire 89-year-old, there is no one who is more talented than Tang Zheng. An outstanding young player, he is talented and hard-working, and I even felt like an old noble gentleman in an interview... I believe that in the future world football field, Don will occupy a certain weight, the great revival of Dortmund Will be on the highway to revival as he progresses...

The content of Gazzetta dello Sport, the biggest-selling newspaper in Italy, is quite different from that of Turin sports newspaper, as if they were dedicated to fighting in a ring.

The new issue of Gazzetta dello Sport reported that Tang Zheng is a gentleman, but Gazzetta dello Sport thought that Tang Zheng, who won the European Golden Boy Award, was full of arrogance and disrespect, and at the same time felt unwilling for Pato, who was not selected. .

However, Gazzetta dello Sport did not expect that Pato, who they have always supported, said in an interview with Milan TV: In fact, Tang's election fully shows that football has no borders, and his performance throughout 2009 is indeed very good. , I also watched his game, it was great! Losing to him... I have no complaints! Because the football world is always home to the capable.

Ever since, Gazzetta dello Sport felt that they were not human inside and out, and the people they supported actually succumbed behind their backs...

Closer to home, Tang Zheng didn't feel any slack when he won the European Golden Boy Award. He trained and practiced every day as usual, preparing for the last round of the league game against Freiburg at home before the winter break.

Since Schalke 04 drew with Werder Bremen in the last round, and Dortmund beat Wolfsburg away, their league points tied with each other. In terms of goal difference, they have a two-goal advantage, and the league ranking naturally rose to No. 1 four.

If you want to enter the Champions League next season, ranking fourth is not enough.

According to the UEFA European War points given by UEFA last season, the Bundesliga ranks fourth, which means that there are only three places for the Bundesliga to participate in the Champions League this season and next season, and it is still 2+1.

Before Dortmund's home game against Freiburg, Tang Zheng showed his latest trophy to the 83,000 fans at the Westfalen Stadium.

The hallowed South Stand also made a difference, with a huge poster hanging up before the game.

The poster image is naturally Tang Zheng holding the Golden Boy trophy, and there is a line of eye-catching German on the lower edge of the poster: Heute-Golden-Boy, -den-Golden-Globe!

Translated into Chinese is: Today's Golden Boy, Tomorrow's Golden Ball!
