On January 18, Beijing time, the FIFA 2021 annual award ceremony has ended, Levan won the World Footballer of the Year, C Ronaldo won the Men's Football Special Award, Lamela flower arrangement foot won the Puskas Award, Tuchel won the Best Manager of Men's Football, and Eduard Mendy was elected the Best Goalkeeper. From the perspective of the award alone, it seems that there is not much controversy, but from the perspective of some other subjective operations of FIFA, it is really confusing.
First of all, in the men's football team, the individual selection awards are jointly selected by the national team captain, coach, media representatives and fans, and the winners have performed well in the year, and not too many people have objections.
However, in terms of lineup selection, FIFA gave a 3-3-4 lineup that the dogs did not look at, and played 4 players on the front line for the hardcore stars. You should know that in the past when the stars were shining, FIFA still maintained its own principles, only selecting the best players in the best team, rather than changing the lineup for the sake of players.
In addition, there is no controversy that Chelsea goalkeeper Mendy, who helped the team win the Champions League last season, was voted the best goalkeeper, but what is incomprehensible is that the best goalkeeper voted out could not be selected for FIFA's own best team, making people confused for a while, which is the best?
The same thing happened in the women's football team, where Barca midfielder Putyas, who had previously won the Ballon d'Or, was also named Best Female Footballer at the FIFA Annual Awards Ceremony, and the only double player of the year should be selected for the Best Team. But in the final list given by FIFA, we miraculously found that even Putyas, who won the Ballon d'Or and best player, did not make it to the final best team.
What is even more outrageous is that in the women's football best player selection, the three players who entered the candidate are all Barcelona female footballers, but all three of them have failed to select the best team, and even the entire Barcelona women's football team has lost the best team. Those who don't know also think the team didn't win anything last season, but the Barcelona women's football team won the enviable treble last season. Is there a strong conflict between the criteria for the selection of the best player and the best team? Or did Barcelona offend FIFA?
In addition, the best men's football coach went to Chelsea manager Tuchel, the coach who miraculously led the team to win the Champions League, which is really undisputed. But the best coach of women's football also gave Chelsea coach Emma Hayes, to know that in the same period, the Barcelona manager who led Barcelona to win the triple crown of the season and defeated Chelsea 4-0 did not qualify for the award for best manager, making it inevitable that there was no black box operation in this.
Another point is that Alaba, who won six titles with Bayern Munich, could not be selected for the FIFA best team, but moved to Real Madrid, and compared to the previous Real Madrid defender Alaba, who did not play more amazingly, he was unexpectedly selected for the best team. Or is there a lag in fifa's selection, and everyone has only now seen the good of Alaba?
Everyone has their own best player in their heart, and whether the selection is fair or not has its own conclusions, but FIFA's repeated operations make people fascinated, which selections do you think make people feel more incredible?
Attached voting rules:
The awards are based on the performance of the candidates from October 8, 2020 to August 7, 2021, and the best players are voted by the captains, coaches, media representatives and fans of each national team (fans around the world can participate after completing registration on the FIFA website), and the voting weight of each group is one-fourth, regardless of the actual number of votes of each group.
