Like in previous years, the annual awards ceremony was scheduled to be held at the Zurich Opera House.

After the press conference before the ceremony, Gao Han and the other two entered the venue together. Gao Han took the opportunity to find Platini and FIFA President Blatt and carefully consulted his thoughts.

Both football tycoons have shown their importance to the Chinese market. China is now strong in its national strength, especially after the subprime mortgage crisis and the European debt crisis, the world's economy is in a downturn, and only China is the only one, which makes no industry in the world ignore China's existence.

UEFA President Platini is very interested in Gao Han's proposal. He believes that attracting Chinese players to play in European football can effectively help European football open up the Chinese market. At present, the one who does the best in this area belongs to Chinatown.

But there are many problems here. Even if UEFA and the Spanish Football Association agree, the Spanish government may not agree.

Commonwealth players can play in the Premier League, and African-American players can play in France and Spain. These are supported by the laws of their countries, but China obviously cannot get such treatment unless the Chinese government comes forward and reaches a cooperation agreement with its countries.

Blatt's attitude is similar to Platini, coveting the Chinese market, but he has never found a stepping stone.

Even Blatt told Gao Han directly that he felt very regretful that China failed to participate in the World Cup and believed that this was a huge loss for the World Cup and FIFA. Therefore, he strongly agreed with Gao Han's vigorous development of youth training in China and promised to do his best to provide support and help.

However, the fact that Chinese players occupy foreign players still depends on the policies and wishes of the government where they are located and even the EU.

Gao Han was not surprised at all because he failed to get a reply.

Whether it is UEFA or FIFA, the sphere of influence is only in the three-point area of ​​football, but Gao Han's idea has already involved Spain's labor law and has risen to the national policy level, which is indeed very difficult.

But Gao Han was not disappointed. At least he reached cooperation with Blatt and Platini in youth training, coach training and referee training. FIFA and UEFA will strongly support Chinatown's plan in China.

When Gao Han returned to his seat, the award ceremony officially began.

…………

The first guest to walk onto the podium was Brazilian football king Bailey.

This football king, known for his crows, is responsible for awarding the best team of the year selected by the World Professional Players' Union. The eleven players are basically from Manchester City and Barcelona, ​​which reflects the strength of the two teams.

The goalkeeper is Cech, and the defense is Ramos, Xavi Martinez, Pique and Alves. Since there is no strong candidate for the left-back, Atletico Madrid's central defender Ramos serves as the left-back.

The midfield is behind Xavi Alonso, Modric and Xavi are partnered in the frontcourt, and the frontcourt trident is Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and Sanchez.

Except for Atletico Madrid's central defender Ramos, the others are from the two Champions League final teams, Manchester City and Barcelona. They are also the two most recognized teams in the world. The classic Champions League final last season has been talked about by countless fans to this day.

Eleven players selected for the best team went to the podium, and Bailey presented them with awards.

After Pele awarded the Best of the Year, FIFA President Blatter walked onto the podium.

The FIFA president, who has been affected by the recent election scandal, first kept a secret and did not directly introduce the awards, but first introduced the winners' resumes. For example, he coached in a team for more than 25 years, bringing the team to the top teams in the world.

When everyone heard this, they basically looked at Ferguson sitting next to Gao Han.

Only the Scottish coach deserves this honor in today's football world, and his coaching at Manchester United is a legend.

In fact, long before tonight's award ceremony, everyone was rumored that the winner of this year's FIFA President's Award will be Ferguson, which is the main reason why he appeared at the Grand Theatre of Zurich tonight.

Although he was also shortlisted for the Best Men's Football Coach Award, most people believe that he basically missed this award.

When Blatt shouted the name "Sir Alex Ferguson", everyone in the audience stood up and applauded Ferguson. Ferguson also hugged Gao Han, Guardiola and others next to him, and then walked onto the podium.

At this time, a video specially played on the podium, FIFA specially produced for Ferguson, first of which was his 25th anniversary at Manchester United Old Trafford Stadium, and then followed by his colleagues, the players he coached had evaluated him, and the first person to appear was Gao Han.

"He is a very good friend, elder, teacher, and he is one of the people I respect most in the world today."

After following Gao Han, Guardiola, Wenger, Redknapp and other Ferguson's friends and opponents appeared one after another, and later his players were his. What was most touching was that Beckham appeared at the end of the video.

This superstar player who left Manchester United in 2003 due to the flying boot incident and turned to Real Madrid and has since become strangers to Ferguson, said in the end of the video with his affectionate eyes and a slightly choked voice: "He is like my father. We all love him and respect him."

Sitting below, Gao Han obviously saw Ferguson's shoulders twitching, and turned his head in concealment, which was obviously a true expression.

In fact, he still cared about Beckham very much, just as a father would always remember his children.

The video short ends with a subtitle: "Sir Alex Ferguson, the greatest legend in football."

After the video ended, thunderous applause broke out again.

Gao Han was also very happy for Ferguson from the bottom of his heart and admired the old Scottish coach. No matter how much praise he gave to his legendary journey, he was destined to be an insurmountable monument in the history of world football.

After the FIFA President Award was awarded, the Best Women's Football Coach Award was followed. Japan's Nobuo Sasaki won the award, and the Japanese Football Association also won the Fair Competition Award. Neymar, who played for Paris Saint-Germain, won the Best Goal of the Year Award.

After one award after another, it was finally the turn of the Best Men's Football Coach of the Year Award.

From the early award last year to the third-last award this year, this undoubtedly reflects FIFA's intention in the award arrangement and highlights the importance of men's football coaches. The award presenter even dispatched UEFA President Platini.

As soon as the UEFA president came on stage, he joked that Gao Han was jokingly saying, "FIFA heard your voice."

The audience burst into laughter, and everyone remembered that it was also in this grand theater last year. Gao Han mentioned when he delivered his speech on the award, hoping that the role of the head coach can be recognized and affirmed, and this year he got it.

In fact, there is basically no suspense about the final winner.

When Platini shouted Gao Han's name, there was only warm applause and no surprise.

Manchester City's triple-winning champion made Gao Han almost lose this award. Even Real Madrid coach Mourinho said in a previous interview with the media that he would not attend the award ceremony because the Best Men's Football Coach Award must belong to Gao Han.

Gao Han, who was wearing a suit, stood up calmly, hugged Guardiola, Bosque, Ferguson and others, and then went to hug Manchester City players, Messi of Barcelona and Neymar of Paris Saint-Germain, and then walked onto the podium, hugging Platini first before receiving the trophy.

"I am very grateful to FIFA for their affirmation and Michelle."

After saying that, Gao Han turned around and thanked Platini.

"I'm very happy that this award is finally a little late, which means that the head coach's work is being recognized and recognized by more and more people. I think that in the past year, there have been many head coaches better than me, but I'm lucky than them."

"Here, I have to thank my family. Without their support and tolerance for me, I can't work with peace of mind; I have to thank my colleagues, who have pushed me here because of their efforts; I have to thank my players. Without everyone's concerted game, I can't stand here."

"So, I want to share this award with them, and at the same time, I am proud of having such family, colleagues and players!"

Gao Han's confession also received thunderous applause from the scene.

This is the second consecutive season that he won the FIFA Men's Football Coach of the Year Award, which completely established his title of No. 1 coach in the world.

After Gao Han received the award, he also specially won the votes for the Best Men's Football Coach of the Year. Gao Han led the way with more than 70% of the votes. Guardiola, who ranked second, was only in the early 10%, and Bosque was only a few 7% of the votes. This huge gap made people surprised Gao Han's influence in the world football world.

After the award of the Best Men's Football Coach Award, the famous singer and Pique's girlfriend Shakira were responsible for awarding Miss World Football, and finally, Japanese women's international Eki Sawa won the award.

Brazilian player Mata, who has long dominated the title of Miss World Football, has not performed well in the past year, and Brazil has stopped at the quarterfinals of the Women's World Cup. Instead, the Japanese women's football team has made rapid progress and won the Women's World Cup championship for the first time. Head coach Nobuo Sasaki also won the Best Women's Football Coach of the Year Award.

Gao Han was also sighing when he watched it off the stage.

If you want to make progress, you must first see and acknowledge the gap. Japan's football level has indeed improved very quickly in recent years. Whether it is the men's football team or the women's football team, whether it is the Japanese J League or the overseas legion, Japan has undoubtedly become a force that cannot be underestimated in today's football world.

The same situation is also true of South Korea. The level of men's football has also improved rapidly in recent years. These two East Asian neighbors have even left China far behind in football. Seeing that Japan has become the big winner of this year's FIFA awards ceremony, how can Gao Han not sigh at the football level of his motherland?

However, it is not difficult to see from the experiences of Japan and South Korea that there is still hope for Chinese football.

What Japan and South Korea can do, China can do, and even do better than them.

But this does not require slogans, but requires down-to-earth.

Therefore, Gao Han became more determined to continue to vigorously promote youth training.

After the Miss World Football Award was awarded, the last grand prize was immediately brought to the evening's award ceremony, the FIFA Golden Globe Award.
