Before the official awarding of the FIFA World Player of the Year award.

After the previous awards ceremony concluded.

The grand finale of the evening then began.

When the two hosts returned to the stage and asked the audience whose name would be ranked alongside great figures such as Ronaldinho, Zidane, Luis Figo, Ronaldo, and other award winners.

Subconsciously.

Everyone present focused their attention on Kaka, who was sitting in the front row with a gentle smile on his face.

Then.

FIFA President Sepp Blatter and football legend Pelé have returned to the stage.

Pelé placed the trophy representing the FIFA World Player of the Year award on the stage.

Blatt smiled and took a card from the envelope in his hand, staring at the card and reading it word by word: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a crucial moment. I have contact to open the envelope."

He finished making a joke that wasn't very funny.

Blatter's voice then rang out: "Ladies and gentlemen, the 2007 FIFA World Player of the Year award is—Kaka!!!"
