Chapter 259 2012 FIFA Awards Ceremony! Beckenbauer: I do!

The red carpet is long and narrow.

Because the wider side is given to the media.

Isabella held Wang Shen’s arm, and Wang Shen held Xiao Zesheng’s hand.

The three people slowly walked into the Zurich International Exhibition Center under the flash of lights.

You must stop and go on the road to sign autographs or take photos with fans.

Entering the awards hall, everyone did not take their seats immediately, but chatted in twos and threes.

Wang Shen greeted Ronaldo, complimented each other, and then unexpectedly saw Neymar.

This guy hasn't joined a European club yet. Did he fly here from Brazil?

Wang Shen was a little surprised, but then he understood the reason why he came here.

One is to increase exposure, and the other is to show his willingness to come to Europe to play football.

I simply said hello to Neymar, and before I could chat with Messi, a staff member already motioned for everyone to take a seat.

Wang Shen's position is very forward, but not too close to Messi or Ronaldo.

On the contrary, Capello was sitting next to him, which was obviously a deliberate arrangement by the officials.

Not long after, the awards ceremony officially began, and the two hosts slowly walked onto the stage.

The female host is Real Madrid TV host Kai Mori, and the male host is Ruud Gullit, one of the Dutch Three Musketeers.

After a simple opening remarks, the first person to be nominated was Miss Football:

Brazilian women's football team No. 10 Mata

U.S. women's soccer center Wambach

U.S. women's soccer forward Alex Morgan

The three of them stood side by side on the stage, and Wang Shen couldn't help but glance at Alex twice.

Not only because he has the same name as his ex-girlfriend, but also because she is indeed a very good-looking woman.

It was these two glances that made Isabella pinch the soft flesh of his waist, which made him almost jump from the pain.

"what are you doing?"

Wang Shen endured the pain and asked Isabella in a low voice.

"Do you like everyone named Alex?" Isabella said a little bit.

Wang Shen rolled his eyes, he couldn't understand what qualifications Isabella had to take care of him.

But he still whispered back: "The old Sir Alex is not my type."

Wang Shen's words made Isabella quickly cover her mouth for fear of laughing out loud.

But her shaking shoulders still betrayed her.

The host on the stage has already introduced the three people and briefly interacted with them.

However, the awards were not announced immediately, this was just a candidate presentation session.

After Miss Football candidates, there are candidates for the FIFA Ballon d'Or, the biggest award.

The first person invited to the stage was Cristiano Ronaldo, followed by Messi.

Wang Shen was also taken backstage by the staff when the three Miss Football candidates were leaving the field.

After the two of them appeared, he followed closely behind.

In simple interactions, Wang Shen always remained humble and polite.

Whether it is for Ronaldo or Messi, he has shown enough respect.

However, he still briefly escaped from the stage because he noticed that Ruud Gullit's forehead was covered with sweat.

It seems that he is very comfortable in the midfield position, but he is still a rookie in the field of hosting.

The host briefly interacted with the three people and asked them to leave the stage.

Then the screen on the stage began to play the winners of the Puskas Award.

First, Neymar scored after passing several people.

Watching Neymar's goal on the big screen at close range, Wang Shen could feel Neymar's talent coming to him.

The entire advancement process can only be described as smooth.

Those defensive players, like well-rehearsed actors, coordinated with him to advance.

And a clever shot from the outside of the penalty area gave people a feeling of calmness.

Then came Falcao's sideways volley.

I have to say that Tiger’s goal was really domineering.

The free and easy posture and the abundant strength were something Wang Shen had never kicked out before.

The third person after the two is Wang Shen.

The goal he put on the screen was the goal against Chelsea in the 24th round of last season.

The extremely fast running coupled with the world-record-breaking shooting speed makes him truly capable of competing for the Puskas Award.

And Wang Shen felt that this award should be his.

However, this award was not announced immediately, only the candidates were introduced to everyone first.

Then came the World Football Eleven selected by the Professional Football Federation, and Wang Shen was naturally among them.

Moreover, the lineup chosen by FIFA this time is 4231, which is a somewhat surprising lineup.

What is even more surprising is that both defensive midfield positions are occupied by Englishmen.

One is Wang Shen, and the other is Gerald.

When preparing for the show backstage, Wang Shen also blamed Gerrard for why he didn't tell him since he was coming.

I should have known that the two of them came together.

"I want to give you a surprise, haha!"

Gerald's face, which was always full of sorrow, showed a rare smile.

But this sounds really embarrassing. What surprises can you, a grown man, give me?

The awards for the eleven players are over, followed by the best women's football coach.

This award was won by former United States coach Pia Sandhaye, who had a surprised expression on her face when receiving the award.

After Pia finished her speech, she began to award the best men's football coach.

There are still three candidates, one is Capello, whom Wang Shen is familiar with, and the remaining two are Mourinho and Guardiola.

Wang Shen took a special look at Mourinho during the awarding process.

He has the least chance of winning among the three, but there is no trace of panic on his serious face.

Soon after the award was announced, Mourinho did not win.

The winner was Capello, the head coach of Wang Shen's national team, which is quite reasonable.

European Cup winning head coaches usually book this award.

This is also a disguised way of praising the strength of European football.

Capello mentioned all members of the coaching staff and all England players in his speech.

Of course, he did not hesitate to praise Wang Shen.

Wang Shen also applauded him vigorously in front of the camera.

After Capello received the award, a short video about Ronaldo was played.

The short film starts on the small island of Madeira, with Ronaldo's coaching teammates coming out to speak.

After the short video, FIFA President Sepp Blatter gave this year's President's Special Award to Beckenbauer.

When Beckenbauer gave his speech when accepting the award, he unexpectedly mentioned Wang Shen.

"He is the person I have ever seen who uses the outside of his instep the most like me. If it weren't for his appearance, I would really doubt..."

The old man sighed and waved his hands as he spoke, making the guests laugh.

The camera also showed Wang Shen's interest, and Wang Shen smiled bitterly and shook his head at the camera.

It's just a joke, don't talk about ethics, old man!

"I heard that Wang Shen has the habit of asking his seniors for advice. I must tell the truth here."
