Chapter 996 - 241: The Golden Ball Award Pool Controversy

Sponsored

Raise up Italy, then everyone will think the France Team is also formidable.

Otherwise, why would your supposed powerful France Team be defeated by mere Italy?

The performance of that group of old comrades in Italy is evident to all.

Making it into the top thirty isn’t a big problem, but making it into the top ten is extremely difficult.

Elevating them wouldn’t threaten the top five players for the Golden Ball Award.

But elevating them can enhance the value of the European Cup.

Who truly benefits from being in the top five for goals?

Robben and Zidane!

Apart from them, the other three top-level players—Izalelt, Lima, and Moreira—are all Brazilian and won the Copa America!

The European Cup didn’t need to elevate its status in the past.

But this year, someone is intentionally lowering the value of the European Cup.

This made Zidane turn furious.

Izalelt is handsome enough, has immense commercial value, is very strong, and has won the Champions League.

But those elevating him are eager for a few competitions that match the European Cup in strength to gain an advantage in premiums.

They are naturally willing to suppress the European Cup while elevating Izalelt.

But for European players, this offends the sacredness in their hearts.

What right does some South American friendly warm-up match have to be compared to the European Cup?

Don’t mention comparing Copa America champions to European Cup champions; even a semifinals of the European Cup holds more weight than the Copa America champion!

Robben and Zidane can lose to Izalelt this year, but it’s absolutely not because Izalelt won the Copa America, but because Izalelt won the Champions League while Robben and Zidane lost the European Cup, and Robben was defeated by Izalelt in the Champions League!

Logically, it should be this logic!

Not the conspiracy of some people that since Izalelt won the Copa America, he suppresses Robben and Zidane this year.

Zidane is adamant in not allowing this situation to occur.

So he chose to fire back.

Moreover... this can also, as much as possible, attract some votes for Zidane himself and Robben. See if they can help Robben surpass Izalelt at the last moment.

Zidane achieves multiple goals, fulfills his own objective. But if his own objective fails, he can also conveniently help teammate Robben, earning some goodwill.

Even if Robben is ultimately defeated, at the very least, the basic bottom line of the European Cup’s value can still be maintained.

Furthermore, even if Izalelt won the Golden Ball Award, it would be subject to doubt due to the controversy surrounding this year’s award. At the very least, future generations can say Izalelt deserved this Golden Ball, but that year Zidane also could have won it with an argument like this!

This is also a good way to enhance one’s historical standing.

Finally, Zidane’s backing may likely activate Lu Yang’s "dream of joining the Emperor".

If Lu Yang gets carried away and insists on joining Real Madrid at this stage, Barcelona will truly suffer.

Joining Real Madrid is certainly not beneficial for Lu Yang’s development.

But Real Madrid will definitely further strengthen their substitutes because of it.

This year, Real Madrid is already nine points ahead of the troubled Barcelona!

Gudiola is almost unable to continue.

Moreira’s form has dropped significantly in the early stages of this season.

Mateo and Barça’s internal local faction further exclude Moreira tactically, and Barcelona is going through growing pains.

If Lu Yang joins Real Madrid, then Barça really won’t stand a chance.

Others may not know, but Gudiola certainly understands how versatile Lu Yang is!

With Lu Yang, to put it harshly, even if Real Madrid had a vacancy for a goalkeeper, Lu Yang could fill in.

Such a Galaxy Battleship without weaknesses, it’s just a matter of time before they dominate the world.

So Gudiola immediately voiced: "I can’t understand why Lu Yang isn’t on this list. Although my favorite player is Morici, I admit he’s not quite qualified this year to enter the list."

"But Lu Yang is absolutely qualified!"

"No, one shouldn’t say qualified. I personally even think that without Lu Yang, the credibility of this list will suffer some damage. I recommend that French Football study this again, provide explanations, and implement remedial actions."

La Liga’s two giants have expressed their views on this.

If the Premier League doesn’t follow suit, it’ll be lagging behind.

Mr. Winter stood up first, firing the first shot for England.

Winter: "Let me put it this way, Lu Yang is in the top three of my votes! Without him, I cannot cast any of my votes."

"As everyone knows, the Premier League often produces young prodigy superstars. But in the selection of various awards, some always suppress the evaluation of young Premier League superstars by citing excessive commercial value."

"How long has it been since the Premier League birthed a Mr. Golden Ball? It’s abnormal because the current Premier League is the most intensely competitive, watch-worthy, superstar-laden, and highest overall level of the Five Major Leagues!"

"In my opinion, Lu Yang has endured the same grievances as the Premier League. We should not always compromise with such unfairness. I personally call on England fans and players to treat this Golden Ball Award voting rationally."

"Seek fairness, not discrimination!"

Subsequently, Sir Manchester unexpectedly stood aligned with an old rival for the first time, voicing criticism of the Golden Ball Award.

In no time, the response in England was overwhelming.

The Golden Ball Award is under tremendous pressure.

Who could have imagined that a mere "Serie B and Serie A Hybrid" player would be considered for inclusion among the world’s 100 most excellent players?
