Chapter 321 World Cup Awards Ceremony, win so many awards!
There was chaos on the field, and the moment the whistle sounded, the Spanish players went collectively crazy.
The players in the front court rushed to the corner area, knelt down and hugged each other.
In the backcourt, several defenders and goalkeeper Casillas also hugged each other.
Even though they had already won the World Cup four years ago.
But now they are still extremely excited to once again win the highest honor in football.
It has been 52 years since Pele led the Brazilian team to successfully defend the title in the 1962 World Cup. No team has been able to accomplish this task in the World Cup.
In the increasingly competitive modern football environment, defending the World Cup title seems to have become an impossible task.
However, the Spaniards have used their success to prove to the world that nothing is impossible if you can do it!
The live broadcast camera was given to Lin Quan.
There is no doubt that in this game, Lin Quan was the best performer among the 22 players on the court.
With 3 goals and one assist, all four goals scored by Spain in this game were related to him.
In this World Cup, Lin Quan scored a total of 12 goals, surpassing his teammate Villa to become the top scorer in the history of the Spanish team.
In addition to these 12 goals, Lin Quan also contributed 10 assists, creating 22 goals by himself! It can be said that it is precisely because of his joining that the offensive firepower of the Spanish team in this World Cup is the best in the world.
In seven games, Spain scored a total of 25 goals, averaging 3.5 goals per game! This goal efficiency is the highest among all teams in the past 50 years.
With these 25 goals, Spain surpassed Brazil and France and became the team with the most goals in a single World Cup, second only to Hungary.
In the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland, the Hungarian team, which featured legendary strikers Kocsis and Puskas, scored 27 goals in five games, averaging more than five goals per game.
This is also the team with the most ferocious offensive firepower in the World Cup so far.
Unfortunately, in the final, Hungary was reversed by West Germany despite leading by two goals in eight minutes, and missed the championship, which was a huge regret.
It can be seen that Lin Quan was also very excited. He hugged each of the players on the field.
Be it the main players or substitutes, or even the staff and reporters on the scene.
As long as the other party opens his arms actively, Lin Quan will not refuse to give the other party a warm hug.
After all, joy needs to be shared.
On CCTV's commentary booth, He Wei said with emotion when he saw Lin Quan's face full of joy in the camera:
"In just two years, Lin Quan went from being an unknown young player to becoming one of the top stars on the planet!"
Xu Yang nodded and agreed: "Before the World Cup started, there was a voice in the outside world that worried that Lin Quan was too young and could not adapt to such an intense competition as the World Cup.
However, Lin Quan dispelled everyone's doubts with his outstanding performance of scoring in seven consecutive games and 12 goals in a single World Cup. "
"This is Lin Quan's year. So far this season, he has won five championship trophies, including the Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup, Champions League and World Cup! In terms of personal honors, Lin Quan also won the Premier League Best Newcomer Award, Premier League Best Player, Premier League Golden Boot, Champions League Golden Boot, Champions League Best Player, World Cup Golden Boot, World Cup Best Player and a series of dazzling honors!"
"In the past, fans jokingly called Lin Quan the record breaker, but now, perhaps he will have another title - the honor harvester!"
The last person to hug Lin Quan was the retired former national team captain Puyol.
In this World Cup, Puyol did not participate in the competition as a player, but accepted Lin Quan's invitation and joined the team as an assistant coach.
His joining has been a great help to Spain's defense.
Under his guidance, even Lin Quan's defensive ability has improved a lot.
Therefore, Puyol also made a great contribution to this trophy.
"Captain, we did it!"
Puyol's eyes were red, and he patted Lin Quan's back heavily: "Yes, we did it, thank you, Lin!"
For Puyol, being able to win this championship trophy with the team means he has no regrets in his life!
…
"Be gentle, be gentle, put me down!"
Bosque walked onto the field excitedly, ready to celebrate with the players.
Unexpectedly, it was immediately lifted up by the excited players and thrown into the sky.
The old coach was old and couldn't stand the beating. After being thrown a few times, he started begging for mercy.
He was really scared by the players' behavior. If it happened a few more times, he would have a heart attack.
The players were just joking with the coach and didn't really mean to play a prank on him.
So, after hearing Bosque's begging for mercy, they let Bosque go and instead grabbed another major contributor to the team's victory and threw him into the air.
Needless to say, this person was none other than Lin Quan.
Lin Quan originally wanted to run, but when he saw his teammates lifting Bosque up, he realized that something was wrong.
However, these guys were so mean that they even arranged for Ramos and Martinez to mark him.
If it were on the court, Lin Quan might be able to try to fight one against two and beat them.
But now he had no ball at his feet, and facing these two burly men, he really had no way to deal with it.
Fortunately, this group of teammates were not as bad as those in the club. After throwing Lin Quan into the air several times, they did not drop him and let him fall freely to have a close contact with the ground. Instead, they put him down safely.
While the Spanish players were celebrating on the field, the staff on site had already begun setting up the award ceremony stage.
There was still some time before the award ceremony, and because of the intense game before, the players were all dirty. Players like Lin Quan, who had been violated by opponents many times, had their jerseys covered with grass clippings and dirt.
So, at the assistant coach's reminder, the players dispersed and returned to the team's locker room.
Lin Quan was also preparing to leave, but when he entered the player tunnel, he met the legendary star of the German team, Klose.
"Lin, can you exchange jerseys with me?"
It seemed that Klose was waiting for him here specially. After seeing him, he took the initiative to ask.
He had heard of Lin Quan's name a long time ago, but the two had never had the opportunity to fight each other before.
This World Cup final is the first confrontation between the two, and probably also the last.
Klose is already 36 years old and his contract with Lazio has only been signed for one year.
By next year, he might retire.
Lazio ranked very low in Serie A last season and did not qualify for the European Cup.
This also means that it is impossible for the two to meet in European competitions. If they do not take this opportunity to exchange jerseys, there may not be another chance in the future.
Klose was very optimistic about Lin Quan, a rising star, especially when he learned that Lin Quan liked to imitate his front flip celebration when he was playing for Werder Bremen, he became very interested in this junior.
In this World Cup, Klose was able to appreciate Lin Quan's playing style up close, and even played against him once in the final.
Lin Quan's playing style and personal character are very much to Klose's liking, making him appreciate and even like Lin Quan even more.
Unfortunately, the opponent is a little short, otherwise if I could pass on my heading ability to him, he would really have no shortcomings at all.
"OK!"
Lin Quan gladly accepted Klose's invitation, quickly took off his jersey and exchanged with him.
"Play well, the future is yours!"
Holding Lin Quan's jersey, Klose gave him his blessings.
“Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your future career!”
Lin Quan also sincerely sent his blessings to God K.
Klose is not a talented player, but an example of a grassroots player.
He did not come from a professional youth training background, but played amateur football, so his starting point was lower than most players.
If it weren't for Reghar's keen eye and bringing him to Kaiserslautern when he was 22 years old, the future World Cup top scorer would probably have changed his career to become a carpenter.
Ronaldo, a prodigy of his generation, had already become the top scorer of the South American Super Cup at the age of 17 and was recruited into the Brazilian national team.
At the age of 19, the alien was already the top scorer in the Eredivisie. At the age of 21, he became the top scorer in La Liga and won the European Golden Ball and Golden Boot.
The 21-year-old Klose is still struggling in the third-tier league.
Compared with top-notch players, Klose is not fast, not strong enough, not aware enough, and not skilled enough. He is a very mediocre player no matter how you look at him.
At that time, it was probably hard to associate such a player with the future World Cup top scorer!
During the World Cup in Japan and South Korea, Klose's footwork was still very crude. When facing a half-high ball, he would not use his feet to shoot, but would only bend down and head the ball. All five goals he scored in the World Cup were scored with his head.
Although this inadvertently created a record, it was obvious at the time that his footwork was significantly different from that of other German players on the field.
But in the following period, Klose, who had a poor foundation and a late start, made up for his shortcomings little by little with hard work and double efforts.
His footwork continued to improve, and in the end he not only overcame his weak foot, but also developed the ability to use both feet. He had more weapons to choose from when attacking, and was always able to get the ball into the goal efficiently.
Compared with superstars like Ronaldinho and Ronaldinho, Klose's playing style is plain and unpretentious, but simple and practical.
His peak period lasted for a long time because his skills were constantly improving, but his age limited his performance.
Maybe not everyone can become Messi, but everyone can try to learn from Klose.
You don't need to have the best talent, you just need to practice what you have to the extreme, and maybe you can leave your own chapter in the football world.
After a brief chat with Klose, Lin Quan returned to the locker room.
As soon as I opened the door of the locker room, several streams of water with fruity scent blew towards me.
Lin Quan was unable to dodge and was soaked all over.
"Haha, are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
When I looked up, I saw several teammates holding bottles of champagne, looking gloating.
Lin Quan wiped the champagne off his face, picked up an unopened bottle of champagne from the side, and retaliated against the few people.
Before the final began, many people prepared champagne in advance, ready to celebrate after winning the championship.
Although champagne is drinkable, no one would drink it. It's just for scolding people! "Hurry up, get ready, the coach is here!"
Just as Lin Quan and his teammates were arguing with each other, the guy outside who was responsible for keeping watch brought the latest intelligence.
The players picked up the champagne in their hands and pointed it at the door.
Bosque was accompanying King Felipe VI of Spain to the locker room. As soon as he opened the door of the locker room, he smelled a mixture of the fragrance of apples, lemons and other fruits.
This is?
The old commander was full of doubts, and then he heard a bang and several streams of water came towards him.
Bosque frowned, thinking that this matter was not simple, and quickly protected Felipe VI in front of him.
Before Felipe VI could react, he was doused in the face by champagne sprayed by the players.
The players were stunned. Why was it His Majesty the King? Didn't the intelligence say it was the coach? "You bastards are too lawless!"
King Felipe is 1.97 meters tall, and Bosque standing behind him is not affected at all.
"It's okay, it's okay. Everyone is happy. This is good!"
Felipe VI didn't care much. Instead, he took off his wet suit and joked:
"It just so happens that I feel a little hot. It's uncomfortable to wear a suit in this weather. Thank you for giving me an excuse to take off my suit!"
The King's people-friendly attitude has won unanimous praise from the players.
When the champagne was sprayed on the king just now, many people felt a pang in their hearts, thinking that they had caused a big disaster.
I didn't expect the king to be so easy to talk to!
This brought the players and the Kings closer together, and the two sides quickly became friends.
Because Felipe VI was going to attend some activities later, he borrowed a jersey from several taller players and planned to wear it to participate in the celebration of winning the championship.

Although it was a bit unbecoming of the royal family, the king's move won him great favor among the fans. It also made Felipe VI, who had just ascended the throne, enjoy a high level of public support in the country, at least among Spanish fans.
The players didn't fool around in the locker room for too long. They quickly took a shower, changed into the special jerseys specially customized for winning the championship, and then lined up to leave the locker room and return to the court.
At this time, FIFA staff escorted the World Cup trophy to the stadium and placed it on the podium.
Seeing this trophy shining with golden light, the Spanish fans at the scene couldn't take their eyes off it.
Although they also have a World Cup trophy in their hall of honor, it is just a one-to-one replica, and this one is the real thing.
“I really hope to bring this trophy back to Spain and keep it forever!”
Torres said a little greedily.
"Maybe if we win one more World Cup we can take it away!"
Ramos' eyes were also golden, and he was also greedy for this beautiful trophy.
The original trophy of the World Cup was not the Hercules Trophy, but the Jules Rimet Trophy.
Later, after the Brazilians won three championships, they took the Jules Rimet Cup permanently. FIFA redesigned the World Cup trophy, and this is how the Hercules Cup came into being.
According to the Jules Rimet Cup, if a team wins the World Cup three times, it can take away the World Cup trophy permanently.
If this precedent is followed, the Spanish team, which has already won two championships, only needs to win one more championship to have a chance to take away the World Cup permanently! "Haha, I'm afraid that won't work!"
Seeing that his teammates had some unrealistic ideas, Xabi Alonso stood up and poured cold water on them.
"Although the Brazilian team once took the Jules Rimet Trophy away permanently, FIFA stipulated at the beginning of the design of the World Cup that it is not allowed to be preserved permanently, so even if we win the championship again, I am afraid it will not work."
"Ah, when was the patch applied? How come I don't know?"
"This is so abominable. I feel like I'm being targeted!"
"This rule doesn't seem to be aimed at us, but more at the Brazilians. After all, back then, the Brazilians were not a team prone to tragedy, and their competitiveness in the World Cup was obvious to all!"
After taking away the Jules Rimet Cup permanently, the five-star Brazil won two more World Cup titles.
Their dominance in the World Cup is truly breathtaking.
While the Spanish players were chatting, the award ceremony stage on the court had already been set up.
Countless cameras were aimed at the award ceremony stage and at the champion members who were about to go on stage to receive their awards.
The first individual award to be presented was the FIFA Best Young Player Award.
There was no doubt that Lin Quan was elected unanimously.
Lin Quan, only 18 years old, is not the youngest player in this World Cup. Cameroon's Olinga is almost three months younger than him.
However, Lin Quan is the best performing young player in this World Cup, and he is leading by a huge margin.
After hearing his name, Lin Quan waved to the fans and cameras in the stands on all sides, and then walked towards the podium step by step with steady steps.
After receiving the trophy from the presenter, Lin Quan walked to the center of the podium and showed the trophy in his hand to the camera.
This is a silver trophy with a football on top and a square base underneath. It looks ordinary, but it is quite heavy.
Lin Quan weighed it and felt that it weighed more than ten kilograms, which made him wonder if this thing was made of pure silver?
But even if it is pure silver, this thing is not valuable, at most 2,000 euros.
Although the value was not high, Lin Quan was still very happy. No one would complain about having too much honor.
Then came the Golden Glove Award of this World Cup, which was given to Spanish goalkeeper Casillas.
This is the second time Casillas has won this honor!
In this World Cup, Spain has only conceded 4 goals in 7 games, making it the team with the fewest goals conceded.
In addition, they kept a clean sheet in 4 games, among which Casillas' key saves played an indispensable role.
Casillas walked up to the podium, held up his golden gloves and waved to everyone.
When Lin Quan saw the golden trophy in Casillas' hand and then looked at the silver trophy in his own hand, he suddenly lost interest.
Why does the goalie get the Gold Glove, but the best rookie gets the Silver Ball?
Fortunately, his name was called again soon.
The third award was the Golden Boot Award of this World Cup. Lin Quan won this honor with an absolute advantage of 12 goals.
"Congratulations, Lin, you are amazing!"
FIFA President Blatter personally presented the award to Lin Quan, and Blatter was deeply moved when presenting the award.
A year ago, in almost the same place, when he presented Lin Quan with the Confederations Cup's Golden Ball and Golden Boot awards, Lin Quan made an agreement with him that he hoped to accept his award again in a year.
Blatter thought the other party was joking at the time. After all, to stand on the podium, one must either win the championship or get the Golden Boot, otherwise he would not be qualified to accept his award.
But he didn't expect that the other party actually completed this almost impossible task! After seeing that he was the one presenting the award, Lin Quan smiled and responded: "You are indeed trustworthy. I hope I can accept your award next time!"
FIFA will hold general elections next year, and Lin Quan's remarks were meant to wish Blatter a successful re-election.
The Golden Boot Award is different from the Best Newcomer Award. This thing is made of gold.
However, it is a bit light, not even as heavy as the previous Silver Ball Award. Lin Quan guessed that this thing is just coated with a layer of gold.
After receiving the trophy, Lin Quan didn't know for a moment whether he should step down or continue standing on the podium, because the next award to be presented was the World Cup Most Valuable Player Award, also known as the World Cup Golden Ball Award.
And there is no doubt that this award will go to him.
In the end, Lin Quan stepped down and returned to his teammates.
Holding a Golden Boot in my hand to receive the Golden Ball always feels a bit too ostentatious. It’s better to be low-key and receive them one by one! “Hold it for me for a while!”
Sure enough, just as Lin Quancai stepped down from the stage, his name was called out on the podium again.
Lin Quan handed the Golden Boot Award, representing the best scorer, to Ramos next to him and walked towards the podium for the third time.
Ramos looked down at the Golden Boot Award in his arms and couldn't help but touch it with his hand.
This is what he has always dreamed of! Seeing Lin Quan walk to the podium for the third time, the fans at the scene burst into laughter.
Commentators from various countries couldn't help laughing:
"Haha, Lin Quan really gave us a vivid interpretation of what it means to win so many awards!"
"He won three awards by himself, plus the championship medal and trophy, he can open a personal honors showroom!"
"If you take into account the league and Champions League awards, maybe it will be possible!"
It was still Blatter who presented the award to Lin Quan. He smiled and patted Lin Quan on the shoulder, jokingly saying:
"Your predictions are very accurate. As expected, I will give you the award this time!"
Lin Quan couldn't help laughing. If Blatter wasn't corrupt, he would be a good chairman.
Because he supported the development of football-lagging regions and insisted on not letting the World Cup become a European-dominated show, he had important significance for the development of football around the world.
It's a pity that he had a dirty record and offended a force he could not afford to offend, so he was eventually thrown into prison and ended up with a miserable end.
Received the Golden Globe trophy from Blatter, this trophy is obviously more gorgeous than previous trophies.
It is entirely made of gold-plated material, even the base is no exception, it looks golden and beautiful.
However, compared with the equally golden Hercules Trophy, it is still far behind.
After the Golden Ball Awards were presented, all the players who had received their individual awards came on stage to take a group photo.
Although there were four awards, only two people went on stage.
Because three of the awards were won by Lin Quan alone! Lin Quan quickly returned to the sidelines, took the Best Newcomer Award from Torres, and took back the Golden Boot Award from Ramos.
But Ramos was reluctant to let it go: "You can't take it anymore, just let me keep it!"
Lin Quan smiled and said, "Sure, then come with me on stage to take a group photo?"
Ramos quickly shook his head: "Forget it, forget it, I won't go. I can't afford to lose face!"
Although he also scored 3 goals, he is still far from the top scorer.
If he dared to go on stage for a group photo, it would become a black history.
Holding three trophies in his two hands, Lin Quan returned to the podium with difficulty.
Casillas couldn't help but shake his head and laugh when he saw his miserable appearance.
Lin Quan sighed: "It seems that winning too many awards is not a good thing!"
Casillas couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard his teammates' words: Listen, is this still human language? After the group photo session, the German players took turns to go on stage to accept the runner-up medals presented by Blatter.
After the German players received their awards, it was finally the Spanish players' turn to go on stage.
The 23 Spanish players, wearing red jerseys, walked up to the podium with excitement and received their championship medals.
Then, captain Casillas carefully raised the World Cup trophy and walked towards his teammates step by step.
The players opened their arms and carefully welcomed the arrival of the Hercules Trophy.
Casillas shook his body and the trophy, leading his teammates to shake along.
When he walked to the center, he suddenly raised the Hercules trophy in his hand high up!
Streamers fell like rain at the Maracanã Stadium, and fireworks rose inside and outside the stadium.
Amid the colorful fireworks, the laughter of the Spanish players were frozen in this moment!
