"The winner of the 2007 UEFA player of the year award is..."
Along with the awarding stage, Gao Han in the microphone word by word, sonorous words, all the audience almost held their breath, focused on looking at the awarding stage, especially a few promising players.
"... KAKA!"
Kaka?
The whole Grimaldi Conference Center fell into a dead silence. Everyone couldn't believe watching the cold on the stage. Even Kaka himself opened his mouth and looked incredible.
Gao Han raised the card in his hand and repeatedly announced, "Kaka!"
Then, the whole venue burst out a burst of extremely enthusiastic cheers.
Cold, this is definitely a big cold!
Who would have thought that Kaka would win the player of the year in the end!
What's more unexpected is that Kaka is the first player in the history of AC Milan to win the player of the year.
The Brazilian got up from his seat and pursed his mouth as if he didn't know what to do, but he soon accepted the congratulations from the people around him, especially when he passed Cristiano Ronaldo.
Both of them used to play in Atletico Madrid when they were coaching in the cold weather. Kaka was the number one star in the team at that time, and Cristiano Ronaldo was a rookie. However, their relationship was good and they had a deep friendship, especially after the Portuguese moved to Milan, they also had frequent contacts.
But who could have thought that this duel was temporarily won by KaKa.
Not only the players were surprised, but also Gao Han himself was surprised.
Among the four awards just presented, Kaka was shortlisted for the best striker, but it was Cristiano Ronaldo who won the award. In principle, it should be the Portuguese who won the award. Otherwise, how to explain that Kaka won the best player award instead of the best striker award?
But the card in front of him had the name of the card written very clearly.
Kaka in the people's congratulations, all the way to the podium, still very excited.
The shy Brazilian covered his chest and shook his head with a wry smile when he came to the cold surface. Obviously, he was calming down. But soon, he stepped forward, opened his arms and hugged the cold.
"Thank you, boss, thank you, thank you, thank you..."
Kaka kept thanking his cold ears repeatedly, and his tears could not stop falling from his eyes.
There was a burst of applause and cheers. Cristiano Ronaldo was the first one to stand up from his seat and applaud for Kaka.
Surprise comes so suddenly that people can't help showing their true feelings.
Kaka will never forget that when he was the most difficult and almost desperate, Gao Han came to Brazil, convinced him, brought him to European football and Atletico Madrid.
It's also the high cold's trust and reuse of him that makes him become the most popular star in the European football world.
Without the cold, there would be no Kaka today.
Cristiano Ronaldo can absolutely understand Kaka's gratitude for the cold, because the Brazilian has told him this more than once, and he knows it.
At that time, he was just a country boy who was ridiculed in the Lisbon athletic youth training camp in Portugal. No one paid attention to him at all. He even had the idea of going home. However, Gao Han found him through his agent Mendes.
When he met the cold, it became the biggest turning point in his life.
From then on, he soared all the way from Atletico Madrid to Inter Milan, and it was the high cold who trained him to be a world star.
He has never been a person who can speak, but in his heart, he always regards alpine cold as his most important relative.
On the awarding stage, Kaka took the cup from the cold hands, went to the microphone and looked directly at the audience in front of him.
"Thanks to UEFA and all the people who voted for me, thanks to all the fans who support me, to get this award is a motivation for me to continue to improve, and I look forward to the next challenge."
"But I want to say that my good friend, Cristiano Ronaldo, has just finished a fantastic season, he has won almost all the honors, I know he is more worthy of this award than I am, but I will work harder to prove myself, I want to say to him, Cristiano, our game is not over!"
"Also, my most respected head coach, Mr. Gao Han, you are the best in the world!"
The scene immediately rang out a burst of extremely warm applause, and everyone stood up one after another to applaud for Kaka.
Kaka turns around and hugs Gao Han again. They face all the audience together and accept their congratulations.
…………
…………
At the end of the award ceremony, the happiest thing is the media reporters.
All the five awards have been divided up by the cold players. What a gimmick is this?
But the most surprising thing is that the final and most significant player of the year award is not Cristiano Ronaldo, but Kaka, which is surprising.
You know, AC Milan didn't get any honors last season. Although Kaka performed very well, he was still not as dazzling as Inter's players. Why did he take them?
However, UEFA did not explain this. After the evening, when media reporters interviewed Platini, the president of UEFA also spoke in an official voice and repeatedly said that the whole selection process was fair, open and fair, and there was no fraud.
"I believe that anyone who has seen AC Milan will not deny that Kaka was one of the most outstanding stars in European football last season, and at this level, anyone can get this award."
As the mentor of the two superstars, Gao Han also said in an interview with the media, "the two players are the best in European football, and their performance is also the best. There is no dispute who gets the award."
Even Cristiano Ronaldo congratulated Kaka on winning the prize in an interview with the media.
"Fraud? No, I think Kaka deserves this award. Although he didn't win the championship, his performance on the field is more convincing than any champion. I am convinced that he won this award
"Of course, I don't think I'm worse than him. Our game has just started
This is also a response from Cristiano Ronaldo to Kaka's invitation.
After attending the award presentation party and the draw, the crowd was invited by UEFA to have dinner in a luxury hotel near the Grimaldi Conference Center.
From the beginning to the end, Gao Han was the main character at the banquet. Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka and other players sat beside him. Gao Han also said privately that Kaka's performance really deserved the award.
However, he also reminded Kaka to pay attention to his body.
"You've had a lot of injuries in the past and need to be careful."
Kaka is not very old, only 25 years old, but his playing style is easy to get hurt, especially the high-speed dribbling in the middle. Many people can't keep up with his rhythm and can only be forced to foul.
Gao Han used his eyes. After taking a look at Kaka's data, he found that his injury tendency was higher than before. Therefore, he was reminded to pay attention to his body so seriously.
"I understand that Milan laboratory has been paying attention to it all the time. Don't worry, boss, I will pay attention to it."
For the cold reminder, Kaka is also very bent to listen to the teaching.
"If you have a chance, you have to think more about it. You are 25 years old and at the peak, but you also have to think about the next problems, especially when your injuries begin to increase and your age begins to get older, you have to transform. Do you know what I mean?"
Kaka nodded. He was a smart man. He knew the truth of preparing for a rainy day.
No professional player can always play in the same style from his debut to retirement. When they were young, they needed to try more, exercise more, and find their own role. The golden time was just a few years. After that, with more injuries and declining physical function, they had to start transformation.
Especially for players like Kaka and Robben.
Some of the transformation is not good, often either early retirement, or in the end is late.
Kaka himself knows the importance of transformation, but he also knows that he really needs a person like Gao Han to guide and supervise him, so he looks at Gao Han and jokingly says: "if I can play under the boss, then I have nothing to worry about."
Gao Han almost didn't die of fright after hearing this, "please, don't scare me. Our temple is too small to accommodate you, the Great Buddha."
With Kaka's present value, looking at the whole European football world, there are only a few teams that can buy him, but absolutely not including Bayern Munich.
"Ha ha, boss, you can come to AC Milan."
As soon as Kaka said this, Cristiano Ronaldo quit. "Ah, I said, Kaka, you have the ability, even if you rob the player of the year, even if you want to rob the boss, even if he wants to go back to Serie A, that's back to Inter Milan."
"Yes, the boss is the favorite coach of Inter fans. How can he coach his rivals in the same city?"
"Just don't dream."
Everyone is greedy for Kaka to win the prize. Now that they have the chance, why don't they accept him?
Cold is the old God sitting on the side, drinking and eating vegetables to see a good play.
But on the surface, it's leisurely, but on the inside, it's not easy at all.
After tonight, he will go to Nyon, Switzerland to attend the annual European coaches summit at the headquarters of UEFA. According to the process, Platini should give a speech on behalf of UEFA on the first day to summarize the past Champions League and UEFA Cup.
It is said that he may also consult on the reform of the UEFA Cup.
There is also a very important issue is to convey the preparation and organization of the two major European Cup matches in the new season, as well as the standards of discipline and law enforcement, which is also the routine work of UEFA every year.
Not only at the summit of the coaches, but also at the next stage, the referee committee will arrange people to all teams to communicate, so that all participating teams can understand the law enforcement standards of UEFA, so that they can have a clear idea.
It's the agenda of the next day that makes the cold really difficult.
The highlight of the next day was the speech of Gao Han, which faced more than 20 top European coaches and technical officials of UEFA. They all hoped to understand the tactical concept of Gao Han and the core idea of coaching the team.
Since its debut, Gao Han has been teaching for many years and has never lost to peace. This achievement can be called magical. Naturally, it is also the focus of curiosity of all European coaches. Many people even have the idea of grabbing Gao Han's Laboratory for slicing research.
Because of this, the agenda for the next day will be more interesting.
For the high cold, it will also be a big test.
