On December 2000, 12, the Fifa Best Player Awards Ceremony in Rome, Italy.

The scale of the award ceremony is unprecedented, and more than 80 TV media will broadcast the award ceremony live in Rome.

As this year's World Footballer of the Year, Rafael received a schedule early.

It was this schedule that filled his time so much that his agent Anderson also came to serve him.

Raphael finished his styling in the morning, and then accepted a live interview with Italian Radio and Television at 10 am, and publicly reached a settlement with Lao Ma in this live broadcast.

After that came the precious lunch hour.

After lunch, he can rest for a while, and then he has to change his outfit and appear in the garden lobby of the Caballero Hilton Hotel where he is staying at 3 pm, drinking cocktails and chatting with other "background boards".

But the purpose of FIFA is not to let these stars relax and socialize. There are many reporters wearing press cards and holding cameras in the garden hall.

Anderson told him: "See those ubiquitous logos? It's what ESM, Coca-Cola, and Adidas are asking for."

Obviously, the three major sponsors want the media to take more photos of the stars and their own logos.

However, Batty was very upset that Raphael used "background board" to describe himself.

"Are you also considered a background board? You got a trophy today."

Figo also gave Raphael a contemptuous look, because according to Raphael's description, he came to be the background board of the background board today.

Raphael said noncommittally: "Isn't it? Today's highlight is Mr. Footballer of the Century, Miss Footballer of the Century and the best club in the world."

Hearing Raphael talk about this, Raul, who sat quietly and listened, showed a satisfied smile.

Like the Mr. Footballer of the Century who caused the "Tear of the Century", the selection of the Miss Footballer of the Century and the best club in the world is also an online vote.

According to FIFA's original rules, expert votes will only be conducted if the number of votes is inseparable.

Just like Maradona was far ahead in the voting for Mr. Footballer of the Century, in the voting for Miss Footballer of the Century, Sun Wen, last year's Miss World Footballer, was far ahead in the voting, and Real Madrid was undisputedly far ahead of AC Milan. , Ajax, Inter Milan and other competitors.

Even if FIFA reforms the voting of the world's best clubs, Real Madrid, which has 8 big ear cups, will become the best!

As the banner of Real Madrid, Raul is naturally proud.

After Raphael chatted with them for a while, Batty secretly pulled his sleeves.

Pulling Gu Gu's enigma, making a mace and seeking to fry Tang Wu glanced at the past.

Seeing his squinting gaze, Batty rubbed his nose and said in a low voice, "Diego asked me if you want to participate in his farewell match."

Simeone is still waiting to play in the World Cup. It is self-evident who this Diego is.

Although Maradona retired, the farewell match has not been held for a long time.

With Maradona's influence, his farewell match will surely attract the attention of the whole world, but Rafael never thought that he would be the invitee.

Whether to go or not is almost irrelevant.

Raphael said decisively: "As long as there is no major competition scheduled at that time, I will participate."

Batty just smiled when he added: "But I want to be his opponent."

When Maradona retired, he regretted so much that he would never have the opportunity to compete with Maradona again.

Now, here's your chance!

But Batty's expression was extremely subtle, he kept such subtle eyes looking at Rafael and said: "But Diego wants you to join Maradona's fans and friends team, and you are our face value, You can also sell more rebroadcast fees by participating.”

Raphael: "...What team is the opposite team?"

Batty blinked, "The world star team, I heard that he wants to invite Pele, Beckenbauer, Platini, Sir Charlton, Cruyff, they are said to have Blatter and Aveland Heat them up."

Blatter, the current president of FIFA, the guy who doesn't want Maradona to be the Footballer of the Century.

Havelange, the ex-FIFA president, played Maradona at the 1994 World Cup, making him a guy who used banned drugs.

Raphael: "..."

Well, Maradona is still Maradona.

It's just that he suddenly felt that he didn't want to participate in this farewell match.

Batty seemed to see something on his dull face, and said quickly: "Javier Saviola and Pabrido are also invited, you must want to play with them, right? "

Raphael stared at Batty, feeling that what this guy wanted to say was

"Your wife is participating, don't you come?"

But this reason is incomparably sufficient. His wife has participated, so he really has no reason not to come.

After working as a background board for an hour and a half, Rafael could finally go back to the room to rest with other background board companions.

When it was time for dinner, Raphael opened his blue eyes full of gossip, and the object of his gaze was his "bald brother"

Zidane!

Yes, at today's dinner party, the most famous poaching in football will be staged!

Florentino will use a napkin to poach Zidane to Real Madrid!

This is also the first time that tissue has played an important role in football, and it will continue to be the protagonist in the future.

Zidane sat at the 9 o'clock direction of Rafael, and of course he noticed Rafael's gaze, so he raised his eyebrows.

Raphael was about to respond when he saw Florentino and Sir Charlton coming together.

The moment he saw Sir Charlton, Raphael got up.

As the young owner of Manchester United, he should have the most basic courtesy to the club legend.

After Raphael and Sir Charlton hugged, Florentino opened his hands to him.

Raphael is not good at favoring one another, let alone a hug.

Florentino just chatted with him a few words, and then walked towards Batistuta with Sir Charlton. After all, Batty is also a Manchester United player now.

Rafaela's mood is a little delicate

In front of him was a napkin folded in half!

Could it be that... eating melon... ate it on my head?

He ignored the napkin for a while, and sat quietly in his place.

Sir Charlton and Florentino were still greeting the players at the same table one by one, and he was still waiting for Florentino and "Brother Bald" to greet them.

Maybe, maybe you can still eat melon?

What he didn't expect was that when he greeted Zidane, Florentino was very polite, and the napkin that was supposed to write legends did not appear on Zidane's table.

Seeing that he and Sir Charlton were chatting and laughing towards the next table, Raphael fell silent.

Obviously, he really ate melons on his own head.

"What did you write?" Batistuta asked quietly now.

He was sitting next to Raphael, although Florentino's movements were a little secretive, but a napkin suddenly appeared in front of him, and Raphael always looked at it, so of course he would notice it.

Rafael himself was a little curious, so he simply opened the napkin, and saw that it was written in beautiful round letters

The best player in the world should belong to the best club in the world.

pull.Want to take on a new challenge?

With a faint smile on the corner of Raphael's mouth, he handed the napkin to Batty for a look, and then took it back.

Batty looked at the smile on his mouth, and knew that Florentino's flattery was very useful to him.

But he said: "If you dare to go to Real Madrid, I think that old man with red nose can kill Madrid."

He guaranteed that Ferguson would definitely do it!

This also made the smile on the corner of Raphael's mouth completely bloom.

That old man with the red nose would certainly do it.

Later, Rafael got Florentino's cell phone number from Mendieta and sent him a text message.

He is very grateful for Florentino's appreciation, but if he leaves Inter Milan someday in the future, he can't find a reason not to join Manchester United.

After dinner, Raphael had to go back to his room again, this time it was not as simple as changing clothes

Anderson had already emphasized to him that tonight's award ceremony was held in the studio of Rome TV, and he, who was destined to receive the award on stage, wanted to appear glamorous in front of the fans, so he had to wear makeup.

After being tossed by the stylist, the stylist changed his hairstyle again.

Perhaps in order to distinguish it from the image on the camera in the morning, the stylist combed all the hair on his forehead to the back, tied him into a short ponytail, and finally fixed it with hair mud to ensure that the blonde hair is meticulous and reveals a smooth forehead.

Raphael, who had been tossed about for an hour, could finally change at this time.

After he changed his clothes and made simple adjustments by the stylist, Raphael was finally able to send the stylist and his assistant out the door, and then drove his manager Anderson out of the room.

Anderson was at a loss, but he didn't know that after Raphael drove him away, he couldn't wait to ask his friend Siji to take some handsome photos for him and send them to Aimar's mailbox.

This made the silicon-based people couldn't help complaining: "A host like you is really unseen and unheard of!"

Several hosts will use the system like this!

Raphael didn't hear it.

His little curly hair loves his face the most, and now he is so handsome in the mirror, if he doesn't post a few photos to flirt with him, wouldn't it be a failure to endure that hour?

The awards ceremony started at 8:45 pm. At 8:[-], Rafael and other background board friends arrived at Rome TV on time, waiting to appear one after another.

Because this is the city of Rome, whether it is Zidane, Shevchenko, Roberto Baggio, or him, what he enjoys after getting off the car are boos from the fans of the city of Rome.

As for the difference, it's just the level of harshness and invective.

When Raphael was being interviewed by the beautiful host, he suddenly heard shrill boos, and the lethality increased by n levels.

He looked up to the end of the red carpet. Nesta, who was wearing a black evening dress, was standing proudly and walking towards him with a blank expression on his face.

And this kind of Nesta seems to have stimulated the emotions of the fans. After the sound of "traitor", the shouts of other fans also followed.

After the interview, Raphael waited quietly in the corner of the door, and when Nesta came in after the interview, he followed.

Nesta squinted at the little boss: "What kind of eyes do you have?"

Raphael said indifferently: "I feel that Lazio fans don't know good and bad eyes."

It is Lazio who wants to sell Nesta, and it is not Nesta who insists on joining Manchester United or AC Milan, leaving a large transfer fee. Why should Lazio fans do this?

Nesta didn't speak anymore, but took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and threw it over.

Raphael: "..."

A foodie will always be a foodie!

Because of the particularity of this awards ceremony, the well-dressed, self-confessed handsome little ball bully soon went on stage to receive the World Footballer of the Year trophy, which used to be the finale.

On stage with him were background board b Figo and background board c Rivaldo.

After the three of them stepped down, they became the three inconspicuous little waves among the famous people. Only the camera that glanced from time to time reminded them

Hey, everyone, you are in charge of today's beauty rating.

After Rafael was elected as the 2000 World Footballer, the "African Eagle" Nigeria team was elected the best progress award. ⒊[-]

The best team in 2000 was won by the Dutch team, which performed brilliantly in the European Cup.

This is quite surprising, after all, it was "Human" who won this year's European Cup.

Then came the award of Miss Football of the Century.

Because of being implicated in the dispute between Maradona and Pele, Sun Wen, a women's football girl from China, became a victim of FIFA's face-changing.

She was far ahead in the online selection, and shared the Miss Football of the Century award with American women's soccer player Michelle Akers.

After giving applause to the girls, the highlight came!

The moment Pele and Maradona appeared in the hotel, everyone realized that the two would share the glory of the Footballer of the Century and become the best player of the last century.

But when FIFA President Sepp Blatter announced Maradona as the "FIFA Best Internet Player of the Century" award, even though the camera was pointed in his direction, the corner of Raphael's mouth still curled up in a mocking arc .

Maradona, who won the trophy, did not accept this result. After receiving the trophy, he immediately left the field with his wife, children and parents, and did not participate in Pele's award ceremony.

FIFA President Blatter's expression is extremely complicated, but who can dissuade Maradona?

But Platini beside him suddenly patted him on the shoulder, and when Blatter looked at Platini, he saw the other party motioning him to look at the first row of stands.

That is the best position, and it should be reserved for the most beautiful, eye-catching "background board" that can increase the ratings!

But when Blatter looked in that direction, his face became even darker!

Because Rafael and Batty also got up together!

Obviously, they're leaving!

As early as yesterday, Blatter saw the influence of Rafael and Maradona. He couldn't imagine how many doubts Raphael and Batty would leave with the Maradona family!

But Raphael and Batty seemed to have made up their minds a long time ago. They nodded to the camera to apologize, and then got up and left without hesitation!

At this moment, Raphael used practical actions to tell all the fans

Yes, I reconciled with Maradona.

At this moment, I am on his side.

The author has something to say: At this moment, there are many people who are as desperate as Blatter!

Moratti, who was at the scene and panicked: Ahhhh!Rafa is messing around again!

Robson, who is at home and desperate: Bad boy!bad boy!If you don't do anything, you will die!

In Argentina, Grondona, the chairman of the Argentine Football Association who was watching this scene: It's over, and Blatter will wear shoes again, but I'm on the same side as Blatter now!This makes me how to behave!

ps: Lao Ma is really a showman. When he held up the trophy, he was still smiling with Blatter. After receiving the award, his face was full of mother Xipi.

According to Xinhua News Agency, there were indeed players who were dissatisfied with FIFA's slap in the face and left that day, and there were many players.

But I searched the Internet and found a lot of videos, but I couldn't find the picture of Maradona leaving the field with his family and other players leaving the field. It must have been cut.

I couldn't find the list of other players who went with them, but I was a little surprised that there were many stars in the football world, including Caniggia, who was invited, so I think Carney also walked with him.

Now I really want to know which warriors left the field together. The melons after so many years look delicious and sweet!
