I am Kaka

Chapter 247 Kaka Riding the Wind and Waves

As long as he is a player, it is impossible for him to have no ambitions for the Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year. The list of candidates is usually announced between the end of November and the beginning of December, and then will be awarded around the end of the year, so Kaka still has about a month left Time to canvass for yourself.

The best way to canvass votes is of course to score goals.

Of course, as he said to Redick, even if he wants to score goals, he will not use despicable methods that harm others and benefit himself.

He will assist when it is time to assist, but he will choose to shoot himself when both shooting and passing may score.

On November 5th, in the 4th round of Group H of the 2003-2004 UEFA Champions League group stage, AC Milan went to Belgium to challenge Bruges.

In the last duel, Milan lost the game 0-1, and it was at home. This undoubtedly gave hope to all Belgians. Although this game still adopted a defensive counterattack routine, the determination was not firm. After all, the group stage It's not a knockout match, it's about scoring points. The last score has no effect on this time, so Brugge put a lot of effort into counterattack and hesitated a bit in defense.

All I can say is courage.

They paid for their courage shortly after the start.

Cafu was intercepted with the ball, Brugge quickly counterattacked, counterattacked on the counterattack, and pressed heavily, but the ball was intercepted before it reached the edge of the penalty area.

Pirlo made a long pass with a big foot. After Kaka picked the ball continuously in the penalty area, he baked a fragrant and round pie for Sheva, and Sheva scored with a low shot.

Just five minutes later, the situation was almost exactly the same. Bruges failed to counterattack but was counterattacked. This time, Sheva reciprocated.

After the goal, Kaka and Sheva ran to the sidelines, and the rumors of discord were self-defeating.

It was only now that Bruges realized what kind of monster he was facing, but it was too late, the score was behind, and they couldn't allow them to attack.

Then the game turned into an attacking show for Milan.

In addition to Sheva's first goal and Kaka scoring twice, Pirlo, Rui Costa and Rivaldo who came off the bench made contributions respectively. AC Milan created a 6-0 massacre, which made all the opponents in the same group shudder.

On November 9th, the ninth round of Serie A, AC Milan challenged Parma away.

With the power of the Champions League victory, Milan launched a stormy attack at the Tardini Stadium, but Parma was very pragmatic and protected the penalty area so that no water could be poured in. Almost all eleven players in Milan except Dida He rushed up and blasted a few kicks, but it was an egg, and the best result was just hitting the goal post.

Until the injury time period, Kaka once again staged a good show of passing five players in a row. He single-handedly overwhelmed Parma's entire defense, passed the goalkeeper and scored an empty goal.

Milan won 1-0, with seven wins, one draw and one loss, ranking second in the standings.

Two days later, "French Football" announced the list of 30 candidates for the Ballon d'Or.

Shevchenko, Kaka, Maldini, Nedved, Henry, Ruud, Raul, Carlos, Buffon...

All of them are the influential figures in European football last season. Various media and fans have also launched heated discussions around this list. According to the odds offered by major bookmakers, Shevchenko, Kaka and Henry are the most important players. The biggest favorite, most of the others are accompanying runners,

But of course their fans didn't see it that way, and they still made a fuss.

The next day, unwilling to be lonely, FIFA probably didn't think it was lively enough, and immediately announced the list of candidates for the World Footballer of the Year.

But unlike the Ballon d'Or, there are only three candidates for World Footballer of the Year.

From this list, we can see how nonsense the World Footballer's selection is.

Kaka, Ronaldo, Zidane.

Except for Kaka, none of Shevchenko, Henry, Nedved and Maldini, who have been the most beautiful since the 2002-2003 season, were selected.

Of course, if you understand the details and history of FIFA's selection of this award, people will also find that there is not much surprise in this situation.

For the 142 national team coaches who participated in the 2003 World Player of the Year voting, perhaps more than half of the Asian and African brothers did not pay attention to the five major European leagues and the Champions League. For many head coaches, Stanley's players are far away figures. In their eyes, they are more concerned about the big stage where the national team performs, such as the World Cup.

Throughout 2003, the French national team was undoubtedly the most prestigious national team. They not only won the European Championship qualifiers, but also successfully defended the Confederations Cup without many main players.

As a result, Zinedine Zidane, the leader of the European Championship, and Henry, the soul player of the Confederations Cup, naturally became the favored targets of coaches from many small football countries, but Henry still lost the election.

As for Ronaldo, at most he is living on his laurels. After all, the World Cup has not been too long. The scene of aliens killing all sides in the Korea-Japan World Cup may still stay in their minds. Kaka even doubts that he can be selected because he is in the league. And how good the performance in the Champions League is, but the impression points left by last year's World Cup have now exploded.

In contrast, although Nedved led the Czech Republic to successfully block the Dutch team, his performance in this highly integrated national team was not as eye-catching as in Juventus.

The captain of the Champions League champion Maldini had already quit the national team a year ago. In the minds of some head coaches in "outlying areas", Maldini is probably already a retired player.

As for Sheva, Ukrainian football is just like a bird, and its sense of presence is probably not much different from Chinese football.

So it cannot be said that the coaches of each national team vote with their feet. It can only be said that these people choose the best players in their minds based on their fame and personal preferences, not the best players in world football this year.

From this aspect, Kaka's selection is actually quite unexpected.

This also means that he wants to defeat Zidane and Ronaldo, the two football portraits in people's minds from the late 1990s to the beginning of the new century, and the difficulty can be imagined.

Kaka had no choice but to attack with all his might.

On November 24, in the tenth round of Serie A, Milan played against Chievo.

Inzaghi, who returned from injury, sat on the bench, and Kaka and Sheva, the two favorites for the Ballon d'Or, continued to start together.

Although there was an uproar in the outside world, and even the fans of the two began to show signs of biting each other, the two were not affected in any way. Three chances on goal.

In the end, AC Milan won the game with Kaka's free kick and Inzaghi's goal after his comeback.

Three days later, the Champions League faced Ajax, Kaka was in the middle, and Sheva and Jiuye joined forces as strikers.

The two sides played inextricably in the first half, and it was not until the second half that the situation opened up.

In the 52nd minute, Cafu broke through with a steal from the right and passed the ball to Inzaghi who was responding in front. Vchenko stopped the ball at the chest to get rid of Yakub at the penalty spot, calmly volleyed with his left foot into the lower right corner 8 meters in front of the goal, and AC Milan led 1-0.

In the 55th minute, it was Cafu's cross from the side. Inzaghi made a ghostly attack to grab the ball and then cleverly passed back with his heel. After the follow-up Kafu passed the goalkeeper, he scored AC Milan's second goal.

In the 62nd minute, Kaka dribbled the ball on the right side of the penalty area and was knocked to the ground. The referee awarded a free kick and Pirlo hit the wall.

Just when the Ajax defender was about to clear the siege, Kaka unexpectedly succeeded in stealing the ball and scored with a lob.

3-0.

This is also the final score of the game.

On November 30th, in the 11th round of Serie A, AC Milan faced Modena at home.

To the cheers of the San Siro fans, Kaka dominated the game.

Long-distance raids, grabbing points in front of the goal, and a left free kick scored before being replaced by Rivaldo, Kaka once again staged a hat-trick.

It was also his third hat-trick in AC Milan.

Seven days later, the away game against Empoli, the two sides fought fiercely for 90 minutes, and it was about to end in a draw.

In stoppage time, Rivaldo won a corner kick.

Kaka scored from a corner kick.

Now everyone has nothing to say.

On December 7th, in the twelfth round of Serie A, Milan challenged Empoli away.

The two sides drew 1-1 in the 60-minute game, and Kaka came off the bench to seal the victory.

This is Kaka scoring in 7 consecutive games and scoring in 5 consecutive Serie A games.

On December 10, the final round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, AC Milan played against Celta Vigo at home.

Faced with the bus set up by Celta, the Milan generals were helpless. Until the 70th minute of the game, Kaka was tripped to the ground by consecutive dribbles in the penalty area and won a penalty kick.

Pirlo hit it off and scored the only goal of the game.

Kaka's consecutive goals were interrupted, and the results of the World Footballer's selection will be announced soon.
