Chapter 966 Thank You, Boss!

"Cristiano Ronaldo!"

When the award presenter Ronaldo called out this name, the whole audience was in an uproar, followed by a wave of applause.

The Portuguese jumped up from his seat, straightened his suit, and warmly hugged his teammates Kaka, Xabi Alonso, Sanchez and others sitting next to him. Then he took the initiative to walk across the aisle to Barcelona players Messi and Xavi and others and hugged them one by one.

After walking down the aisle, he hugged Gao Han in the front row again, kept thanking him, and finally walked quickly to the podium to accept the congratulations and awards from the Brazilian star Ronaldo who had gained several circles of weight.

This was the first time that Ronaldo and Ronaldo appeared on the same stage, especially on such a special occasion, which immediately aroused countless applause and cheers. It was a pity that Ronaldo was fatter than before retirement after retirement, and he had long lost the charm of the former world superstar.

While Cristiano Ronaldo was receiving the award, the big screen also displayed the vote ranking of this year's FIFA Golden Ball Award. Cristiano Ronaldo ranked first with 47.88%, Messi followed closely with 21.6%, Xavi ranked third with 9.23, and Kaka ranked fourth with 6.01.

Paris Saint-Germain also has two players shortlisted, Suarez ranked sixth and Neymar ranked tenth.

In addition to their performance in the national team, their outstanding performance in Paris Saint-Germain in the past six months has won them more recognition and affirmation.

For this vote ranking, everyone thinks it is normal. After all, Manchester City's performance last season was really dazzling. The triple crown, Cristiano Ronaldo scored so many goals. Whether from the performance on the scene or from personal data, the Portuguese deserves the award.

When the Portuguese walked to the microphone, the theater was quiet again.

Although it was the second time he received the award, he still looked very excited and kept thanking everyone. He said that he was playing in a dream team, which basically dispelled the outside world's comments that he might leave Manchester City.

After thanking everyone, Cristiano Ronaldo paused for a moment, looking at the trophy tightly held in his hand, and he leaned in front of the microphone again, his eyes staring straight at Gao Han in the front row of the stands below.

"At this moment, I want to share this award with my most respected boss." Cristiano Ronaldo pointed at Gao Han and said sincerely, "Here, I want to say to him again, thank you, boss."

There was a thunderous applause from the audience.

"I used to be a somewhat withdrawn and self-centered person. I never thought I would have the opportunity to stand here. My biggest wish at that time was to play professional football, so that I could get a good income and support my beloved family, but I encountered many difficulties."

"It was you who brought me to Atletico Madrid. It was your help and guidance that made me recognize my own path; it was also you who brought me to Inter Milan, and you gave me the opportunity to step onto this stage for the first time; it was also you who brought me to Manchester City in the Premier League, and you let me walk here again and again."

"In my mind, you are the best and most outstanding head coach in the world. Without you, I would not have everything I have today, including this Golden Ball in front of me. Thank you, boss!"

After speaking, Cristiano Ronaldo quickly walked down the podium amid thunderous applause from the audience, walked in front of Gao Han, gave him another big hug, and asked him to hold up the Golden Ball trophy with him at the same time, and accept the photos of media reporters from all over the world.

…………

…………

Gao Han won the Best Men's Football Coach of the Year for two consecutive years!

Cristiano Ronaldo won the FIFA Ballon d'Or for the second time in a row!

The two pieces of news quickly spread to every corner of the earth and became a hot topic for countless media reporters and fans.

Although many people are still arguing about who is more worthy of this award, Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, more people are still praising and affirming the achievements of Gao Han and his apprentice.

The heavy treble, this is something that no one can ignore in 2011, a small year for football.

But after receiving the award in Zurich, Gao Han quickly returned to Paris with Neymar.

Entering January, the African Cup is about to ignite the war. Drogba and Yaya Toure, two African generals, are forced to go to Africa to serve the king, and this trip will take at least a month, so Paris Saint-Germain must make adjustments in the midfield and frontcourt.

After Gao Han returned to Paris, the team ushered in the French Cup.

According to convention, teams in the French Ligue 1 can directly start from the third knockout round, so the first French Cup will enter the knockout round of 64, and the opponent is an amateur team called Saint-Cromban.

Since it is the first game after the winter training, Gao Han also attaches great importance to the game. The opponent is not strong, but the away conditions are very bad, especially the field, which is very bad, which is not conducive to Paris Saint-Germain's style of play.

Gao Han allowed Suarez to serve as the center, with Neymar and veteran Giuly on the wings. The midfielder was the combination of Pastore and Cabaye. Pirlo still trailed behind, and the defense was Kurzawa and Mamadou Sa. The combination of Coe, Thiago Silva and Aurier, and the goalkeeper is Courtois.

But the game went poorly, especially in the first half.

Gao Han arranged for Pastore and Cabaye to start, hoping to firmly control the ball and continuously plan attacks, but due to various reasons, the performance was very unsatisfactory, and Giuly failed to perform on the right. due threat.

In the second half, Gao Han quickly made substitutions, replacing Giuli with Lucas Moura, and replacing Cabaye with Matuidi. The ball was played more directly and simply.

As a result, Matuidi scored in the 53rd minute.

After that, Suarez and Thiago Silva scored in the 72nd and 85th minutes.

In the end, Paris Saint-Germain defeated St. Colomban 3-0 in an away game and successfully advanced.

But this battle also exposed a problem, that is, there is still a problem with the right-side attack in the frontcourt.

Azpilicueta is both offensive and defensive, and his offensive support on the right side of the frontcourt is not as good as Marcelo on the left. With Drogba absent and Suarez moving to the center, Giuly is already old and Luka is Smolla's ability to break through with the ball is indeed excellent, but his scoring ability is not strong.

This makes PSG's attack on the right very problematic.

A week later, the team ushered in the twentieth round of Ligue 1 and their opponent was Toulouse.

At the Parc des Princes, Gao Han once again deployed the frontcourt combination of Neymar, Suarez and Lucas Moura. Pastore continued to partner Cabaye, and this time the results were remarkable. The team firmly controlled the ball. An endless stream of offensives were planned.

Suarez scored twice, Neymar passed and shot, and Pastore scored a goal. In the end, Paris Saint-Germain defeated Toulouse 4-0 at home and won a wonderful home offensive battle.

But after the game, Gao Han still said in an interview with the media that his team has not yet reached its best condition.

With Paris Saint-Germain's 67% ball possession rate in this game, if the frontcourt had seized the opportunity a little better, it would have been a hearty victory instead of just four goals.

The reason is very simple. When the ball reaches the front wings, the rhythm slows down. Whether it is Neymar or Lucas Moura, they are a little too sticky to the ball. This is not a good sign.

A week later, the fourth round of the French Cup once again ushered in the knockout round. The opponent was still the low-level Sarthe River. Neymar and Suarez both scored twice and beat Sur Sarthe 4-0 in an away game.

After scoring 11 goals and conceding no goals in three consecutive games, Paris Saint-Germain started the second half very well.

But just when everyone thought that Paris Saint-Germain was going to continue their hot streak, in the 21st round of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain encountered a stubborn attack from Brest in the away game.

The 11th-placed team in Ligue 1 is the best defensive team in the league this season, but their biggest problem is that their offense is worse, and their tenacious defense has brought considerable trouble to Paris Saint-Germain in the game. Big trouble.

But in the end, it was Paris Saint-Germain who relied on the opening round of attacks. Marcelo's goal in the sixth minute helped Paris Saint-Germain score three points and continue their Ligue 1 winning streak.

Gao Han expressed some disappointment in an interview with the media after the game that he had the advantage for a long time but was still unable to break Brest's goal. He also frankly said that Paris Saint-Germain does still have some problems, such as Drogo After Ba left, Suarez moved to the center, and the attack on the right became a big problem.

"We need to make our offense more efficient, especially after the ball enters the thirty-meter area. We need to play more concisely and more deadly."

This was interpreted by the media as Gao Han being dissatisfied with the performance of three players including Neymar, Pastore and Lucas Moura, especially Pastore and Lucas Moura, who missed the ball during the game. Too much and performance will be sluggish.

Neymar and Marcelo on the left are the most threatening offensive line of Paris Saint-Germain. The two Brazilian players have strong personal abilities and are teammates of the national team. They work together very well. This makes Paris Saint-Germain's The left wing is almost invincible.

But Gao Han also said at the end of the interview that the players in the team are generally relatively young and still have considerable potential that can be tapped. He also firmly believes that the players can quickly adjust their playing styles to better integrate into the team and adapt to the situation. The football environment of Ligue 1 and European football.

Gao Han's remarks after the game attracted widespread media attention and stimulated the atmosphere within the team.

In the 22nd round of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain faced Ivne at home. The result was still zero to zero in the first half. At the beginning of the second half, Ivne took advantage of a mistake by Paris Saint-Germain and scored from midfielder Solin. Assisted Kambon to score.

After that, Paris Saint-Germain played relatively passively. Gao Han was forced to make substitutions. Matuidi replaced Pastore and formed a midfielder with Cabaye. Especially after the 75th minute, Gao Han launched With skill cards, the team pressed hard and attacked.

In the 76th minute, Lucas Moura assisted Neymar to score. Five minutes later, it was Lucas Moura's assist that allowed Neymar to score twice. Then Neymar assisted Suarez to score. ball.

In the end, Paris Saint-Germain reversed Ivian 3-1 at home and won three points again.

But on the second day of this game, at the post-match summary meeting of Paris Saint-Germain, Gao Han severely criticized the performance of most players, including Neymar who scored twice and Lucas Moura who assisted twice, and only praised Suarez and Matuidi and other players.

The club's technical director Antero Enrique also received Gao Han's invitation and made an exception to attend this summary meeting, but did not speak. Instead, he had a conversation with Gao Han after the meeting to discuss summer transfer matters.
