Chapter 142 Golden Boy Awards (4000-word chapter)
With Wang Nuo's goal at the last moment of the game, Manchester City drew 1-1 with Juventus away.

In terms of the results alone, it can only be said to be unsatisfactory. They retained the first place in Group A and may have a better lottery after entering the knockout round.

But compared to the Europa League score, more people are discussing Wang Nuo's goal. A 19-year-old kid single-handedly pierced Juventus' entire defense line, which is extremely shocking!

This goal gained a lot of attention after the game!

Think about it, which opponent's player can make the Juventus fans who are watching the game spontaneously applaud or even cheer at Juventus' home court?

It's incredible!

After the game, talking about Wang Nuo's goal scored by five players in a row, Mancini bluntly said that this is "the ultimate solo performance that can be called the best goal of this Europa League".

And the British media BBC did not hesitate to praise Wang Nuo. In the BBC's text live broadcast, the BBC wrote:

"Everyone may find that the text live broadcast was interrupted for 1 minute. It was not a live broadcast accident, but the staff in charge of the live broadcast were spontaneously applauding the goal!"

Even "Torino Sport", which is considered to be the Juventus team newspaper, the headline on the front page has become "Golden Boy Candidate Scores Goal of the Century!"

Not to mention other European media, in the face of such a goal, all kinds of praise emerge in endlessly.

The video of Wang Nuo's goal went viral on YouTube, making him popular in European football.

In addition to the original scoring video, foreign netizens also made spoof videos. For example, when Wang Nuo dribbled the ball, a somersault cloud appeared from the bottom of his feet.

In the video, when Wang Nuo leaned on Melo to catch the ball, he suddenly turned into a blonde Super Saiyan, and then his whole body was covered with glowing special effects.
There is another version of the video. In that video, Wang Nuo has an extra iron rod in his hand. While dribbling the ball, he knocks all the defenders in front of him unconscious to the ground, and then breaks into the penalty area to score a goal.

With the spread of these videos, while the fans were having fun, Wang Nuo's popularity also rose rapidly.

Originally in Europe, only the Belgians and the British knew Wang Nuo better, but now, many fans know that China has produced a very good young man, and he played tricks on the entire Juventus defense.

Compared with Europe, this ball caused even more commotion in China, with advocacy posters everywhere. Just Mancini's post-match evaluation can write dozens of different styles of news.

There are also a bunch of fabricated news such as "Maradona called Wang Nuo", "the balance of the Golden Boy Award is tilted towards Wang Nuo", "the Belgian Football Association secretly discussed Wang Nuo's change of nationality" and other fabricated news to stir people's nerves.

This goal seems to have unlimited traffic codes. On a certain website called ACfun, a new form of video called "ghost animals" recently appeared, and Wang Nuo's goal was inexplicably used as the main material. creation.

In addition, there are even fans on the forum who compare this goal with Messi's famous work from the halfway line. From a technical analysis, who is more difficult.

Sa fans went from laughing it off to arguing with reason, and started a long debate with Wang Nuo fans.

Then, the topic escalated to discuss where Wang Nuo's upper limit is.

Some people support the racial theory, saying that Asian players are at most the main rotation of the giants, and Park Ji-sung will be the end of it.

Some people also complained that Wang Nuo's pass and cut cooperation in the Premier League was sometimes slow and missed the opportunity, and it was impossible to start Manchester City.

It wasn't until someone took stock of the current status of Chinese players studying abroad that everyone realized that Messi, Ronaldo, Rooney, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Sneijder, and Villa belonged to others.

Even the 19-year-old Wang Nuo has far surpassed any domestic player. The point is, he is a child of his own family!
Having Wang Nuo is a blessing for Chinese football!
Someone posted an exclusive interview with Wang Zhongshi by the domestic media. After reading it, everyone realized that Wang Nuo seemed to have risen to prominence in just over a year.

Even so, it took years of hard work and hard work between Ghent, Brussels and Standard Liege to get where he is today.

He is only 19 years old, and the future has unlimited possibilities.

Is there anything that makes fans happier than accompanying a star of hope to grow gradually?

In a short period of time, Wang Nuo's goal has been added to various classic goal collections, and many of them are ranked first.

Even "World Soccer" is not exempt. The TOP10 series counts the top ten goals in the history of overseas players. Wang Nuo's goal is impressively ranked in the TOP1.

What's even more frightening is that Wang Nuo scored four more goals!
They are the second-ranked Europa League quarter-finals against Hamburg's away world wave.

The goal of the fourth-ranked Manchester Derby.

The seventh-ranked Belgian national derby scored against Anderlecht's baseline goal.

Ranked 30th in the Belgian Cup against Kortrijk after the rainbow made a [-]-meter goal.

In fact, in addition to this, Wang Nuo has many wonderful goals.

His style of play is very entertaining. From Standard Liege to Manchester City, plus the Asian Youth Championship, 28 goals in official games so far in his career can already be made into a very cool collection.

For Wang Nuo, he was not immersed in yesterday's game, but the goal still made him a little proud, and the happy mood lasted all day.

He and Balotelli remained in Turin, preparing for the Golden Boy awards ceremony.

In order to attend the awards ceremony, Mino rushed over and rented a well-fitting evening dress for Wang Nuo and Balotelli.

Everything was fine at first, but two hours before the ceremony, Wang Nuo suddenly found that the sleeves could not be adjusted properly.

After finally solving the sleeve problem, the bow tie under the shirt could no longer be worn due to the overdeveloped back muscles.

In short, there was a flurry of hands and feet, which made Balotelli laugh out loud.

While helping Wang Nuo to fix the bow tie with his chubby hands, Mino was still answering the phone clipped around his neck, his movements seemed extremely skillful.

"Uh, huh, yes, yes... can you fucking laugh a little bit!" Mino turned his head and scolded Balotelli, who was laughing silly beside him, "When will you be normal?"

Only then did Balotelli restrain his smile.

After hanging up the phone, Mino put his arms around Wang Nuo with one arm and Balotelli with the other, and pulled their necks towards him.

"Listen, you're all my people, don't mess with each other, understand? Especially you, Mario, next time you don't pass the ball to Wang Nuo, I'll post your fucking video on the Internet go!"

Balotelli obeyed instantly.

wow!Wang Nuo found that Balotelli seemed to be more obedient to Mino than Mancini, which was unbelievable.

Not long after, Wang Nuo and the others arrived at the venue in a Rolls-Royce. A large group of reporters gathered outside the door, but the bodyguards were in charge, and no one could get close.

Not to mention, Mino was wearing a black suit and sunglasses, which looked like an Italian mafia, while Wang Nuo and Balotelli followed behind like two bumpkins.

Wang Nuo had never participated in this kind of event before, so he was a bit cramped, and Balotelli's curious little eyes didn't look like he was nominated for the third time at all!

According to Mino, this year's Golden Boy Awards are more lively than previous years, with a lot of media coming.

Under the leadership of the staff, Wang Nuo and the others first went to the meeting hall to remember their positions, and then began to stroll in the outer hall.

At this time, the ceremony had not yet started, and many people were just as idle as Wang Nuo and the others. Everyone could always find a small circle where a few people stood together and chatted happily.

Mino led them to meet many strange faces, some men and some women, Wang Nuo didn't remember who was who, but kept shaking hands, smiling, and then said in English, "Hi, nice to meet you .”

In this way, after a long time, Mino left the two of them and went to the area on the other side of the hall alone.

Wang Nuo and Balotelli immediately turned into two puppets, sitting on the sofa in evening dress.

"This ceremony is really boring." Balotelli yawned and made a concluding speech.

At this moment, Wang Nuo finally saw a familiar face.

A big black man standing not far away is Lukaku from Anderlecht, who is chatting with a handsome brother.

The handsome little brother Wang Nuo also recognized him. It was Atletico Madrid goalkeeper De Gea. David Silva often heard David Silva chatting and comparing him with Joe Hart.

But it was another person who attracted Wang Nuo's attention, a middle-aged man standing not far from De Gea.

He was wearing a black suit, white shirt, and sky-blue tie. He kept tapping the heels on the floor, occasionally making some strange gestures to De Gea for silent communication, and his eyes wandered around like knives.

Coincidentally, it happened to meet Wang Nuo's eyes.

When the man saw Wang Nuo, he didn't hide, but smiled at Wang Nuo friendly, as if he had known Wang Nuo for a long time. However, he was very disciplined and didn't take the initiative to talk to Wang Nuo.

Wang Nuo quickly returned a smiling face, he also knew this man.

He is the agent of the famous Mendes, Cristiano and Jose!To some extent, he is bigger than Mino!

At this moment, Mino appeared out of nowhere, and sat down on the sofa opposite Wang Nuo, just blocking Mendez behind him.

"It's about to start, let's go in!" he said.

Wang Nuo and the others entered the venue again. There were already many people sitting inside, and whispering voices were everywhere.

And almost every second, different phone calls rang, and dozens of media from all over the world were looking for their own exclusive perspectives, allowing the audience to be on the scene through the lens.

Wang Nuo saw photographers even jostling for the best position.

After a frantic half hour, the flashes went on and Wang Nuo and Balotelli were ushered away from behind a black curtain at the side of the stage to the stage.

There were already several players standing there, and a staff member was holding a booklet in his hand and was counting, silently reciting the names of the players.

A few minutes later, Wang Nuo and the others reappeared in the venue with everyone. This time it was a real appearance!
There were bursts of applause and even whistles.

Wang Nuo saw Mino standing in the distance, his chubby face no longer had the usual calm expression, but became serious and focused.

Once seated again, the exciting moment came.

First came the promotional video, followed by the appearance of the host, and the awards ceremony officially kicked off.

Wang Nuo knew that it was impossible for him to win the award. Many candidates at the scene performed better than himself this year.

However, when Wang Nuo heard the name of the final winner of the 10 Golden Boy Award 2010 minutes later, Wang Nuo still felt a bit of heartache inevitably.

The camera hit Balotelli next to him.

"The player with the most votes for the 2010 Golden Boys is - Mario Balotelli!"

In an instant, countless applause rang out, accompanied by the melodious music, Balotelli walked to the podium with a bright smile.

Wang Nuo was also applauding, with a smile on his face, as if he was happy for Balotelli.

However, only he himself knows how strong the unwillingness wells up in his heart without warning at this moment!
At this time, Balotelli had already held the golden football trophy in his hands. He faced the microphone and began to talk.

"I am very happy to get the 2010 Golden Boy Award, but with all due respect, who else can win the award besides me? Two years ago I was sixth, a year ago I was fifth, and now it is time Is it my turn?"

The audience below all laughed, and Wang Nuo found that the Italians did not speak according to the speech that Mino had prepared for them yesterday.

Mino frantically gave Balotelli winks in the audience, but to no avail.

Balotelli was obviously in high spirits at the moment, he glanced at the trophy in his hand, and shook his head.

"My goal is not this award, I want to win the Golden Globe, which is an award with no age limit."

"Let me tell you, my value will rise again after winning the Golden Boy Award, although I have already maintained the highest value of young players, ha."

The host finally realized that it would be a disaster to let Balotelli go on talking, so he quickly found an opportunity to turn the situation around, and then asked the great god to step off the stage.

Balotelli returned to the audience. He took the initiative to hug Wang Nuo, then ran to Mino to give him a hug, and waved the trophy in his hand at the camera a few more times.

Then, he sat back on his seat and handed the trophy to Wang Nuo, "You didn't win the trophy, but we are together, how about I lend it to you for a few days?"

"Come on, it's yours, I don't want it."

Saying so, Wang Nuo accepted the trophy subconsciously.

The hand was cold and heavy, Wang Nuo stared at it.

From the very beginning, he knew that he would definitely run with him this year, but when the trophy was right in front of him, Wang Nuo desperately hoped to get it.

This contradictory psychology made Wang Nuo very uncomfortable.

He noticed just now that he was ranked eighth in the number of votes. In front of him, besides Balotelli, there were also Wilshere, De Gea and others.

If you want to say regret, maybe they are more regrettable?
After thinking about it this way, Wang Nuo seemed to feel better.

But it is undeniable that this awards ceremony made him suddenly sober.

The trophies against the lighting of the venue were dazzling, and Wang Nuo saw the reflection of his own face on the Golden Boy Award trophy.

He understands that he has always been a climber, and there is nothing to shy away from.

He always sets one small goal after another for himself because he will never be satisfied.

When he was a young player, he dreamed of signing a professional contract. When he became a professional player, he wanted to start again. Then, Wang Nuo's goals continued to improve.

From the standard Liege main players, to star players, and then to signing with Manchester City, all the way, it is because they are not satisfied with this driving force.

He is serious about playing football, and he wants to do his best!
At this moment, a new goal was firmly established in Wang Nuo's heart——

This time next year, he will win the Golden Boy Award!
