Chapter 789 The time for the World Cup is coming (Chapter 210! Ask for a monthly pass!)
"It is said that Messi is Diego's successor, Diego II. But now, Messi has done what Diego failed to do, completed the task that the king of the ball did not complete, and became the first person to win the gold medal. The Argentine of the Ballon d'Or. This is a cross-generational scene. Argentine football has finally been affirmed by the Ballon d'Or. Although this day came a bit late, it should have been realized in Diego's time, but now it is up to Messi to make up for this regret It's also fitting. Messi, like Diego, is an unborn talent. Although it is not known whether Messi can achieve the same achievements as Diego, he has become an iconic figure in Argentine football. The Ballon d'Or is right His recognition is also an encouragement to him."

On the second day, the Argentine "National" used almost a full page to report that Messi won the European Ballon d'Or.

It is no wonder that the Argentines regret that before 1995, the scope of the Golden Globe Awards was limited to European players. This extremely unreasonable rule cut off the Golden Globe dream of our football king Maradona. In the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, Diego led Argentina to win the World Cup, but the Golden Globe winner that year was the Russian Belanov, a name that has long been forgotten by us, and even many people have never heard of it.After 1995, Argentine players did not emerge with a dominant superstar. The loyal Batistuta dedicated his best time to Fiorentina, and did not go to Rome to win a championship until the end of his career. .Although Riquelme, Ortega, Saviola, Crespo, Aimar and other stars are outstanding, they are always far from superstars.

***********
"Now, the embarrassing history of Argentine football is finally over. Messi has become the No.1 in the history of Argentina. In the past two years, Messi has entered the top three in the Ballon d'Or selection. This time it has finally achieved a positive result. It can be said that it will come naturally. Messi's performance in the past year is obvious to all. He helped Barcelona win the Copa del Rey, La Liga, UEFA Champions League, European Super Cup and Spanish Super Cup. Cristiano Ronaldo's results are equally bad, Portugal, where he played, was forced to play in the play-offs, Li Rui helped England to secure a ticket for the World Cup in South Africa early, but, in the club, his performance is not as good as Messi..."

Messi's award is a shot in the arm for Argentine football, which is in a trough. The Argentine national team has missed the adult championship for 16 years. The last time it won the championship dates back to 1993 when it won the America's Cup in Ecuador.In the just-concluded World Cup qualifiers, Argentina experienced a coaching change. There were many conflicts in the locker room. The relationship between the coach and the media was almost broken. It was not until the final round that they won the right to qualify for the group. Messi's personal performance is also very sluggish.

Now, Argentine fans hope that Messi's lifting of the Ballon d'Or will be a turning point and bring good luck to Argentine football.Next year will be the World Cup. In 1986, Maradona became the king in Mexico. 23 years later, Messi became another Argentine who dominated the world football after Maradona. Take out the momentum of the king and lead Argentina to the top of the world.

The Catalan "Mundo Deportivo" praised this night as "Barcelona's victory". Among the top five European Ballon d'Ors, No. 2 is Ronaldo, No. 3 is Li Rui, and No. 4 is Li Rui. The 5th and [-]th places are Xavi and Iniesta respectively, which makes the Catalans very proud, and they have the tone of 'Barcelona dominates the world'.

***********
However, "World Sports News" wanted to interview Li Rui at the awards ceremony and humiliated Li Rui face to face, but Li Ruili ignored the "little man's success" media who came over with a stinky face.

Li Rui is extremely disgusted with this mouthpiece media in Catalonia. He has never hated a media as much as he hates "Mundo Deportivo". Even "The Sun" does not disgust him so much. Catalonia People's narrow nationalism disgusted him, and this narrow nationalism also affected the style of some Barcelona players on the field.

However, for Barcelona's style of play, Li Rui still appreciates it. Of course, appreciation belongs to appreciation. First of all, the defensive players became anxious after playing for a long time. They were tired of running to grab the ball throughout the game, and then they were nervous and stared at the position. . .Sooner or later it will collapse.

Perhaps, only when you become a member of Barcelona players can you enjoy this style of play and the pleasure of abusing others.

***********
Li Rui sent his heartfelt wishes for Messi's award, but this does not mean that Li Rui is in a good mood. After all, no one will be happy from being crowned king a year ago to being No.3 now.

"Congratulations, Leo, haha, maybe in next year's World Cup, we will still be rivals." Li Rui said with a smile.

Messi also smiled, and something called fighting spirit could be seen in his eyes.He also wants to beat Li Rui in the World Cup.

Li Rui's words are not just a joke. He is not thinking about the frustration of the European Golden Globe Awards. His eyes are on South Africa. The 2010 South Africa World Cup finals group draw ceremony was held at the Cape Town International Convention and Exhibition Center .This also marks that international football has officially entered the World Cup time.

And Li Rui is also very ambitious. What he lost this year, he won back in the World Cup.

On the private plane returning to Madrid from Paris, Li Rui watched the draw ceremony of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

***********
The top 32 participating in this World Cup are first divided into 4 grades.The first pot of seeds includes hosts South Africa, defending champions Italy, Brazil, Spain, Germany, Argentina, England and the Netherlands.The second-tier teams come from Asia, Oceania and North America and the Caribbean, namely South Korea, Japan, North Korea, Australia, Mexico, the United States, Honduras and New Zealand.The third-tier teams come from Africa and South America, namely Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, Nigeria, Ghana, Algeria, Chile, Uruguay and Paraguay.The fourth-tier teams are all from Europe, they are France, Portugal, Denmark, Switzerland, Serbia, Slovakia, Greece and Slovenia.

The draw ceremony was presided over by FIFA Secretary-General Walker and Oscar winner and South African local star Richards Theron.Before the draw began, about an hour of cultural performances and celebrity interviews were held. Former South African President Nelson Mandela sent blessings to the World Cup through the big screen, which was quite touching.And the appearance of the lovely South African World Cup mascot also enliven the atmosphere immediately.

Walker first affirmed the preparations for the World Cup in South Africa, and then he gave a brief introduction to the draw process.

After the introduction, the lottery began. The Ethiopian long-distance runner Gebresilasie, the current South African national rugby team captain Schmidt, the first black player in South African cricket team Ntini, the South African national team Defender Booth, South African entertainer and England captain Beckham became guests of the draw.

Li Rui also called Beckham this morning, joking that he hoped that Beckham would be lucky enough to help England draw a good draw.

***********
The first team to be drawn was the first grade. South Africa entered Group A without any suspense, and then Argentina was drawn out, and they entered Group B.England were drawn third and entered Group C, while Germany entered Group D.The Netherlands was drawn fifth and entered Group E, followed by defending champions Italy in Group F.In the end, Brazil entered Group G and Spain entered Group H.

Seeing this, Li Rui also smiled. In this case, England is in the upper half, and as we already know, Argentina and Germany are also in the upper half. Both teams are England's sworn enemies. Lost to England led by Li Rui in the European Cup final, he must be holding his breath to take revenge now, not to mention the grievances between England and Argentina.

Li Rui joked with Messi just now that he was looking forward to the meeting between Argentina and England in the World Cup. Now it seems that the two teams may really meet. Haha, Li Rui is really looking forward to it.

***********
Immediately after that began the draw for the second tier of teams.Mexico was drawn first and he moved into position A2.The second team to be drawn was South Korea, who entered position B3.After that, the United States was drawn in the C2 position, while Australia entered the D2 position.Japan was drawn fifth, and they moved into position E3, while New Zealand moved into position F3.The last two teams, North Korea into the G2 position, Honduras into the H3 position.

"America?" Li Rui was taken aback when he saw that the United States was placed in Group C. He really didn't expect to be in the same group as the U.S. team. To be honest, Li Rui didn't know much about the U.S. team. He only knew that the U.S. The team has a goalkeeper named Howard, who played for Manchester United. He doesn't know much about the others. He hasn't played against the US team yet.

Zidane, who was sitting next to Li Rui, frowned. Obviously, he began to worry about the French team. In the qualifiers, the French team relied on Henry's "handball assist" to barely win the final of the World Cup in South Africa. Being divided into the fourth tier team, this also means that once the French team enters any group, it will be the group of death.

"Qi Zu, do you think the French team will play with England?" Li Rui asked suddenly.
