In the early morning of January 18, Beijing time, the 2021 World Football Awards were announced, and the FIFA 2021 Annual Awards announced the attribution of various important awards. World Footballer of the Year, Levan; Best Manager, Tuchel; Best Goalkeeper, Mendy; Best Team, Donnarumma, Alaba, Díaz, Bonucci, Jorginho, De Bruyne, Kante, Ronaldo, Messi, Levan, Haaland; Puskas Award, Lamela; Special Award, Ronaldo!
This year, Messi finally won the Copa America championship with his outstanding performance, which also allowed him to force Levan to lift the 7th Ballon d'Or trophy in the Ballon d'Or selection. This was also once believed by many fans that this year's World Footballer of the Year selection will not have suspense, and Messi can be elected steadily. But today's result is not so, Levan finally pushed Messi to win the World Footballer of the Year, so some fans seem to think that Levan's best is "picked up", but we look at Levan's data, we know that he won the best in a row is deserved, Bundesliga champions, European Super Cup champions, Club World Cup champions, German Super Cup champions, 41 goals to break the decades of Bundesliga season goal record, 69 goals plus 11 assists in 60 games in all competitions in 2021.
Messi finished No. 2 in the World Footballer of the Year, and the other goal king, Cristiano Ronaldo, missed the top 3 for the first time in nearly 11 years, which also made him unable to equal messi's god record. Since 2007, Messi and C Ronozzi have entered the top three of the World Footballer of the Year selection, after which the two have dominated the list almost every year, messi has been in the top three for 11 consecutive years from 2007 to create a record, until 18 years before the first time missed the top three (Modric, C Ronaldo, Salah). C Ronaldo did not qualify for the top three in 2010 (Messi, Iniesta, Xavi), and then from 2011 to 2020, C Ronaldo was also in the top three for 10 consecutive years.
If C Ronaldo is still in the top three this year, then he can tie messi to maintain the record of being in the top three for 11 consecutive years, but in the end, C Ronaldo did not qualify for the top three, and did not have the opportunity to equal the record held by Messi. Interestingly, it is also Salah (Levan, Messi, Salah) who terminated C Ronaldo this time, but in the best team selection, C Ronaldo has in turn squeezed Salah out of the best team, and it has to be said that the selection of the best team is full of slots. For example, the best goalkeeper Mendy, in the end, also failed to enter the best team, which is indeed a bit brain-consuming.
There is no chance to tie Messi, but C Ronaldo still got a special award this year, the men's football special award, Manchester United officially said, "a different player won the special award", C Luo said, "Winning the FIFA men's football special award is a great honor and honor." The fact that such an institution recognises me as the top goalscorer in the history of FIFA competitions is, for me, the culmination of my personal achievements on behalf of the country I love. In addition, Ronaldo also hopes that the special award can give him more motivation to break out of the siege and lead the team into the main game in the World Cup qualifier play-offs.
