The five-ball victory over Barcelona made Real Madrid once again the focus of public opinion in European football.
Yang Yang staged his fourth senior in this focus battle, and even more applauded him.
The day after playing Barcelona, the team assembled at noon and flew to Monaco to prepare for the European Super Cup. At the same time, many core players including Yang Yang were invited to participate in UEFA's annual award ceremony.
After the European Golden Globe Awards merged with FIFA ’s World Footballer and the FIFA Golden Globe Awards were established, UEFA began to vigorously promote the [Best Player in Europe] awards, and the individual awards in the other four positions were Was cancelled.
This will undoubtedly make this award more compelling, and many people even say that he is the outpost of the FIFA Golden Globe Awards. Whoever gets the award will basically lock FIFA in advance. Golden Globe.
2012 is the competition year of the national team. According to the past practice, usually the champions and outstanding players in the international competitions are elected. The European Cup champion is Spain.
However, since 2008, this rule has been gradually broken, because Yang Yang has been really crazy in recent years.
Yang Yang ’s crazy performance has broken the convention of awarding double-digit honors to international championship teams, so no one thinks that the best European player in 2012 will be awarded to the Spanish national team.
The top three from the first round of voting given by UEFA are Real Madrid's Yang Yang, Barcelona's Messi and Iniesta.
But who can stand out depends on the second round of live voting in Monaco.
...
Real Madrid came to Monaco on this trip, led by the club's public relations director, but also Real Madrid's former famous vulture Butragueno, this is Florentino's hand-drawn club leadership.
Even, before, there have been rumors that Florentino is training Butragno as a future successor.
Outside the Grimalty Conference Center, Yang Yang is undoubtedly the most popular player among the media and fans. When he appeared, he almost caused a commotion on the scene, and many fans chased him.
Yang Yang originally planned to stay and interact with the fans, but with the persuasion of the organizer, in order to avoid turmoil on the spot, he walked into the venue as soon as possible and did not stay outside.
With his current influence, if he stays outside for a long time, there will be more and more fans gathered, and the scene will be difficult to control.
Entering the Grimaldi Conference Center, many people met in the lobby, and they all greeted them immediately.
In recent years, Real Madrid have won three consecutive championships in the UEFA Champions League. The spotlight is unparalleled. The top star Yang Yang has won the honor of the first person in the world football in the past five years. This makes Real Madrid and Yang Yang in European football. It is both fame and fortune, especially Yang Yang, and its status is even more soaring.
You have to know that in the past few decades, most of the players who can win the honor of world football are mostly European or South American players, even African players are very few, let alone Asian players. Chinese players are even more impossible.
But since Yang Yang appeared, this history has been completely broken.
At the beginning, many people were still questioning Yang Yang, thinking that he might just be a flash in the pan, but with him again and again, he has won this honor for five consecutive years, and no one dares to question Yang Yang ’s strength and level. , The status will naturally go up, whether it is a person in the European football community or professional media, all praise him. ::
Yang Yang has long been accustomed to this kind of occasion, and he can handle it with ease. He can deal with a variety of different people, and he can do it without leaks. This is the skill he has learned through professional public relations for many years.
For this year's best player in Europe, Yang Yang is of course the most popular, because last season he helped Real Madrid win the Triple Crown and is also the three consecutive Champions League. He won the European Best Player award for this achievement. It can be said that it is deserved.
But this year is different from previous years, because this year there is the European Cup.
Spain won the European Cup championship again, which is also an award. Iniesta won the European Cup best player award. It is the best player in the Spanish team. The voice is also very loud. Many people think that he will Like Cannavaro, he represented Spain to compete with Yang Yang for the best player in Europe and the FIFA Golden Globe Award.
Barcelona still support Messi, mainly because Messi is the team's number one superstar and has a natural advantage in this respect. However, from the current point of view, Iniesta is more likely to challenge Yang Yang than Messi. Bigger.
Yang Yang was quite frank about this. He jokingly stated that if Iniesta won the award, he would go forward to congratulate him first, and at the same time think he deserved it.
This is not just Yang Yang's demeanor, but also his heartfelt feeling.
As far as he is concerned, he actually hasn't paid much attention to his personal honor.
More importantly, Spain ’s defending European Championship is indeed a very important honor.
If Yang Yang has not received so many honors before, he will definitely take this one more seriously, but now Yang Yang does not need an award to prove himself, so he does not mind seeing Iniesta summit.

Before the Champions League draw, Real Madrid captain Casillas appeared at the scene holding the St. Black Cup.
The UEFA Champions League final this season will be held at Wembley Stadium in the United Kingdom, so former Real Madrid ’s England star McManaman attended the scene as the ambassador of the finals. UEFA Secretary General Infantino and Competition Director Marchetti Lottery, UEFA President Platini is responsible for awarding the finale.
The first-ranked draw guest was former Manchester United star Dennis Law, who pulled out the defending champion Real Madrid and seven other teams separately. Real Madrid was drawn to Group D. This draw does not make much sense.
The real suspense is the draw of the other three grades. Among them, the suspense of the second grade is mainly concentrated in Manchester City in the Premier League and Valencia in the La Liga. These are two second-grade teams with the strength of counterattack seed team. Erke 04 is also capable, but relatively weak.
Especially Manchester City, no one wants to meet this team.
The third-tier team is also in danger. Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1 and Juventus in Serie A are all strong teams, as well as the Dutch champion Ajax. A vigilant team.
As for the fourth gear, it is even more brutal. Bundesliga champion Dortmund, the Malaga team known as La Liga Manchester City, and the Celtics of the Super League, these are strong teams that are headaches. No matter who is selected, they will be worried.
Lots of people are always happy and sad.
George Weah was in charge of the second team. He first pulled out Valencia, then McManaman was drawn out of the group, was drawn to group f, and Bayern Munich, and then Benfica was drawn to Barcelona. Draw Dynamo Kiev for Porto and Zenit St. Petersburg for AC Milan.
Then, George Weah pulled out of Manchester City and let everyone in the audience take a breath. No one wants to touch this team.
Not afraid, but not wanting to encounter strong enemies too early.
Unexpectedly, McManaman drew out the d group, directly drawn to Real Madrid.
There was a loss of voice throughout the Grimaldi Conference Center, some were screaming fortunately, some were sneer for gloating.
Yang Yang noticed that the eyes of Butragueno, Ancelotti and Zidane were all helpless. Obviously, they were not satisfied with this signing, because if there is another team in the third gear, then it is really It's the death team.
However, the luck of Real Madrid in the third gear is still average, avoiding Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus, but drawing Ajax.
This is interesting, Real Madrid is the La Liga champion, Manchester City are the Premier League champions, Ajax is the Dutch champions, a group gathered in the three league championship teams, if according to this rule, then the fourth-tier opponent is the Bundesliga Champion Dortmund.
"But is it really so miserable?" Yang Yang asked with a wry smile.
Zidane raised an eyebrow, as if to say, what did you say?
Butragueno also shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Hope not so cruel."
A group gathered in the three major leagues and the Dutch League champions team, this is the cruel death group.
The group stage was so cruel, it was not a good thing for Real Madrid.
You should know that according to the traditions of the past few years, the teams that can generally win the championship are usually gradually out of the state. The opponents gradually progress from weak to strong. As soon as they come up, they are strong dialogues.
Not only because of the consumption of strong dialogue, but also consider the player's injury.
Sometimes, luck is so dumbfounded.
The third-guest draw guest Gullit gave Real Madrid a Dutch champion, while the fourth-guest guest Cannavaro gave Real Madrid Dortmund.
When McManaman drew the ball from Group D, there was a cry of excitement.
At this moment, no one was fortunate, no one fell into the rock, more surprised.
Four league champions gathered in a group, how does that feel?
"Why not Montpellier?" Yang Yang asked in a low voice with a wry smile.
Montpellier was the champion of Ligue 1 last season, and this team is better than Dortmund.
Klopp's team is really too difficult to fight. Everyone plays like this team. If you don't die, you have to peel off the skin. The consumption is not ordinary. This is very terrible for Real Madrid.
"I really think now, maybe I really want to kill us." Ancelotti said happily.
This is a conspiracy theory outside, which means to avoid Real Madrid defending again.
In fact, Real Madrid ’s difficulty in defending this season is extremely difficult, and even impossible, because the team has just undergone a reorganization, the offensive problem in the frontcourt is not small, and the defense of the backcourt, especially the right side, is also a big problem. .
Simply put, it is difficult to have a chance this season.
It is really a headache to draw such a cruel sign.
After drawing the Champions League group stage signing, Platini also started on the podium, made a simple review of the major events in European football in the past season, and then Yang Yang, Messi and Iraq Three Nesta candidates are invited to the stage.
The final finale award is finally announced.
