Chapter 615 Defending World Player of the Year
At 12:19 local time on December 20, Switzerland, the 2005 FIFA Awards Ceremony was held at the Zurich Opera House.Yin Jun once again stood at the highest point of the world football hall, beating Barcelona's star Ronaldinho, and won the 2005 World Footballer of the Year.

Compared with Yin Jun's almost crushing advantage to win the World Footballer last year, this year Yin Jun has been challenged by Ronaldinho.

Last year, Yin Jun won the championship with 1142 points, which is almost three times that of Ronaldinho (412 points).However, this year, Yin Jun only beat Ronaldinho by a narrow margin. Their scores were 3 points and 658 points respectively. Yin Jun only scored 586 points more than Ronaldinho!
This benefited from Barcelona's outstanding performance in 2005.After five years of sinking, the Red and Blues finally returned to the top and won the La Liga championship.So far this season has created a myth of 12 consecutive victories, and this record is likely to continue.

Specific to me, Ronaldinho's performance this year is almost perfect.First of all, he won two championships: La Liga and Spanish Super Cup.

For the club, he represented Barcelona in 32 La Liga games, scoring 15 goals, and his scoring rate was not lower than that of a pure "No. 9".He currently ranks second in the La Liga scorer list with 10 goals, only 5 less than his teammate Samuel Eto'o.Played 7 games in the Champions League, scored 7 goals, and the scoring rate was as high as 100%.He also participated in two Copa del Rey games, also scoring a goal.

In the national team competition, Ronaldinho scored 12 goals in 6 games.

In a total of 53 games, Ronaldinho scored a total of 29 goals, with a scoring rate of 53%.

No wonder Pereira said: "In Brazil's frontcourt attack combination, the only thing that cannot be missing is Ronaldinho."

And in a survey of "the player you think Barcelona is the most indispensable", 97% of Barcelona fans directly chose Ronaldinho.

………………

Yin Jun's score has dropped by nearly 500 points compared to last year.This is mainly because Manchester United's poor performance in 2005, only won a somewhat tasteless League Cup.After big years in 2003 and 2004, United fell into a slump in 2005.

However, as far as Yin Jun himself is concerned, his performance is still beyond doubt.

在曼联俱乐部，殷俊在2005年一共出战了30场英超联赛，取得了29个进球和13个助攻。目前他以16个联赛进球和9次助攻, 高居英超联赛射手榜和助攻榜两榜榜首！
In the Champions League, Yin Jun played 12 games, scoring 19 goals and assisting 3 times.19 Champions League goals in the year, and all of them are in the Champions League, which set a new record.With Yin Jun's outstanding performance, Manchester United reached the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, and this season even qualified with a record of group victories.

In addition, Yin Jun also played 4 games in the FA Cup and the League Cup, contributed 2 goals and 1 assist, helping Manchester United win the League Cup and also reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

For the national team, Yin Jun played 13 games on behalf of the Chinese team, helping the Chinese team become the first team to qualify for the World Cup finals, and also won the German Confederations Cup in an upset.As the captain of the team, Yin Jun contributed 15 goals. It is a pity that because other players of the Chinese team have poor grasp of opportunities, Yin Jun failed to obtain assist data for the national team.But the data of 13 goals in 15 games is enough to explode!

………………

In 2005, so far, Yin Jun has played 46 games for Manchester United, scoring 50 goals and 17 assists, averaging more than 1 goal per game again!
And he played a total of 2005 games in 59, scored 65 goals and 17 assists.

This is the third consecutive year that Yin Jun has scored more than 60 goals!
In 2003, Yin Jun represented Manchester United and the Chinese team, scoring a total of 60 goals and 38 assists; in 2004, Yin Jun went a step further, scoring 68 goals and 40 assists. In 2005, Yin Jun's goals were not inferior to those of the previous two years, but his assists dropped a lot, but he still sent 17 assists and directly made 82 goals.

Considering that the Premier League schedule in 2005 has not yet ended, Yin Jun still has enough time and games to rewrite his own data.

It is also by virtue of his extraordinary personal performance and leading the Chinese team to win the Confederations Cup in an upset that Yin Jun was able to successfully defend the World Footballer and the European Ballon d'Or.Otherwise, he is really likely to be suppressed by Ronaldinho and lose this year's European Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year.

………………

The Blues midfielder Lampard ranked third in the selection, the same as his ranking in the European Ballon d'Or.

Lampard's score is 276 points, which is not only a big gap with Yin Jun and Ronaldinho, but also a distance from Eto'o, Henry and other big teams.

The phenomenon represented by Lampard is the popularity of overall football. His personal status has a greater relationship with the collective performance of the team. Like the representative of the Chelsea collective.

In the 2004 selection, Lampard only scored 13 points, but as Chelsea won the Premier League this year and their record in Europe improved, he also scored 276 points in the vote, the largest increase among all candidates.

Lampard is an individual who belongs to the team. His personal ability is based on a whole that can fit with it. Once integrated into this system, his role is amazing, and his stability and durability are even greater than those who only A "star" who relies on individual performance.

Chelsea is such a whole, providing Lampard with the best stage to play. Look at his achievements in the Blues. So far, he has played a record 163 consecutive games in the Premier League.It can be said that compared with those stars who shine in some games, the continuous and stable Lampard contributes more to the team as a whole.

Compared with Yin Jun, Ronaldinho and others, apart from his stability, Lampard also has something unique, his versatility.In 163 games, Lampard scored 45 goals and assisted 33 times. His offensive data is similar to that of a "front midfielder". Looking at his average number of tackles per game successively 1 times in 4 game, it is close to A defensive midfielder.

In a sense, Lampard reflects a trend in world football. The era of overall football is coming, and systematic and modeled teams are popular.Chelsea is the best example.

After last year's game against Liverpool, Mourinho's startling criticism was that goal hero Joe Cole would not play on the grounds that he did not abide by the team's tactical discipline.

In Chelsea's concept, the requirements for individual players are to be as close to balance as possible in all aspects, to be able to excel in offense, and to meet the requirements of overall defense. In this regard, Lampard is a representative and a model.
