Football: The strongest post-zero generation

The end of Liverpool's home game against Manchester City marked the end of the 8th round of the 2018-209 Premier League season, and the Premier League entered a short break, and the international break in October quietly arrived.

After a day off, Li Qing went to the St. George's Park training base with club teammates Jordan Henderson, Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez to prepare for the second and third rounds of the UEFA Nations League.

The British media focus has also moved from the top game between Liverpool and Manchester City to the UEFA Nations League, but before the whole England team flew to the Croatian coastal city of Rijeka, the latest news released by the official French media "French football" and the official accounts of various social platforms attracted the attention of media and fans around the world.

Unlike previous years, this year's shortlist for the European Ballon d'Or has changed from directly announcing 30 nominees to six batches, that is, five players in each batch, for a total of 30 people.

Li Qing appeared in the first batch, along with Sergio Aguero, Alisson, Bale and Benzema, the second group led by Cristiano Ronaldo and Kevin De Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois, Cavani and Firmino were the other players in the same group, and the third group was a star-studded group, led by Antoine Griezmann, Eden Hazard and Harry Kane, and the other two were N'Golo Kante and Isco.

The fourth, fifth, and sixth batches are scheduled to appear on the official website and the official websites of various social platforms at the same time on the evening of the next day, which immediately caused dissatisfaction among many media and fans......

Very fucked up.

The top management of "French Football", who did not have the media and fans, not only did not have anger, but on the contrary, even the grandmother's teeth laughed out, because the traffic and attention brought by the wild spraying increased dramatically.

Li Qing, who saw this list, didn't have much emotional fluctuations, and his friend Arnold asked curiously: "Li, don't you feel excited?"

"What's there to be excited about?"

Li Qing rolled his eyes and said speechlessly: "Nine times out of ten, the Golden Globe Award will be mine, is it strange to be shortlisted for thirty people?"

Arnold's head is full of black lines: "......"

But after thinking about it, what Li Qing said made a lot of sense.

It's like you're the best student in the world, what's so strange about being nominated for a top scholarship?

Well?

England captain Harry Kane, who heard the conversation between the two, always felt the urge to cry for some reason......

At the same time the next day, the official website of France Football, INS, Twitter and other official accounts announced the list of candidates for the fourth, fifth and sixth batches.

The fourth group of Mane, Marcelo and Mbappe leads, the remaining two Mandzukic and Lloris, the fifth group is very star-studded, except for Oblak in world football, like Messi, Mal, Modric and Mbappe are all top superstars in world football.

The sixth group was led by Luis Suarez and He, with Raheem Sterling, Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane as the final three finalists.

In addition, it was announced that two new awards have been added to the European Ballon d'Or ceremony created by France Football, namely the Women's Ballon d'Or and the U21 Kopa Awards, which will be held at the Grand Palais in Paris on December 3.

The announcement of the 30-candidate candidates for the 2018 European Golden Globe Awards marks the start of voting by media experts, with a large jury of journalists from 176 countries deciding on the winner of the European Golden Globe this year.

It is worth mentioning that the selection criteria for the European Ballon d'Or are divided into three points, 1 is the individual performance and collective glory of the year, 2 is the player's individual ability and spirit of fair play, and 3 is the player's career.

Each judge will vote for 5 players in priority order from a shortlist of 30 candidates, and the players who receive the vote will be awarded 6 points, 4 points, 3 points, 2 points and 1 point in the order of vote.

In the event of a tie in the number of votes, the ranking will be determined by the number of first votes, if the number of first votes is still the same, the number of second votes will be determined, and if the number of third votes is still the same, the organizing committee will reorganize a new poll between the tied players.

Judging by the awards won by France Football since the creation of the European Ballon d'Or, this possibility has not yet materialized, and it is not even possible to take a second vote.

The selection criteria for the European Ballon d'Or are there, and Li Qing, who is favored by world media reporters and fans, has a slightly shorter career in addition to the third point, and is crushed in the first and second points, and Li Qing can be selected in the semi-professional FIFA Player of the Year selection, so there will be no accidents in the more professional European Ballon d'Or Awards.

Other words...... Nine times out of ten, the winner of the 2018 European Golden Globe Award will be Li Qing!

But then again, journalists from Portugal and Argentina disagree with the vast majority of media outlets, who believe that Ronaldo and Messi are the best players in world football today.

The well-known Portuguese media "Ball" said on the official INS account that Ronaldo has countless glories, created a large number of records, and is currently one of the players who have won the most Ballon d'Or awards in world football today, tied with Messi, Li Qing is of course outstanding, but also with his own strength to lead LinkedIn Gran and Liverpool to win the championship in all competitions, which is a point that is difficult to ignore.

But the third crucial point is that the career resume is not enough, which is one of the reasons why Ronaldo, who set the record for the youngest world footballer at the time, waited until he was 21 years old to win the European Ballon d'Or.

Seeing the "Ball" report of Ronaldo rekindled his hope for the European Ballon d'Or, although Li Qing is the most flawless player in the whole 2018, it does not mean that he is the best player in the world, Ronaldo believes that he can compete with Li Qing in terms of personal ability, or even half a chip higher.

European Golden Globe Awards, why not?

Argentina's largest sports daily newspaper "Ole" said on its official Twitter that Li Qing's contribution and ability are indeed outstanding, Messi is great, and the same is true in the Argentine national team and Barcelona, his career is much richer than Li Qing's, and even said that a perfect career should have ups and downs, and a smooth sailing career like Li Qing is not perfect......

Li Qing couldn't help but laugh when he saw the report of "Ole Daily", and Messi couldn't help laughing after seeing it, what is called a perfect career should have ups and downs?

The Argentine media was ridiculed by many fans as the national media with the most Ah Q spirit in the green world, which made Messi feel ashamed.

In the words of the Celestial Empire and the English media - is it so difficult to admit that others are more perfect?

The 30-man shortlist for the European Ballon d'Or created by France Football has settled, and the focus of major media has gradually paid attention to Europe, the center of world football.

The UEFA Nations League will feature two key matches for promotion during the two international breaks. _
