Voting for the 2021 Golden Globes has come to an end, and who will be the final winner of the award will be revealed on November 29.
Last December, in FIFA's year-end judging, Lewandowski was named World Footballer of the Year. As the most prestigious individual award in the football world last year, this honor is undoubtedly a recognition of Levan's performance in 2020. Although the Golden Globe awards were interrupted in 2020 due to the impact of the epidemic, 12 months later, Levan is still the strongest contender for this award.
In 38 club games in 2021, Lewandowski scored a total of 50 goals, a statistic that no one in European football can match. On Wednesday, Bayern took on Champions League group stage rivals Benfica at home, and Levan scored a hat-trick in the 100th milestone match of his Champions League career to help the team advance 5-2. In the Golden Globe Award 30-person shortlist, Lewandowski is definitely a big hit, although the recent games can not affect the voting results, but such efficiency can not be said to be the epitome of Levan's performance throughout the year.
Bayern boss Nagelsmann said: "Levan has been very consistent over the last three years and in that respect he is unbeatable. For me, Levan is the best goalscorer in the world and he can stay at his peak for a long time. It's hard to compare Levan to Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi because they're not the same type of player, but I think Levan is more efficient and stable at the moment than the other two stars. ”
Levan's performance not only conquered the club's teammates and coaches, but many other club players also considered Lewandowski to deserve a personal top honor. Previously, Manchester City midfielder De Bruyne said in an interview: "If I had to choose, I would award the Ballon d'Or to Lewandowski, and last year I opened the skylight, so we will definitely consider the performance of the winner in the past two years." Whether in terms of the number of goals scored or the honours won, he was my choice. ”
Although Levan is slightly inferior in terms of national team honors this year, in terms of data alone, Levan's performance is not worse than that of any candidate. In eleven matches for the country in 2021, Levan scored nine goals and is the top scorer of the Polish national team.
'Robert maintains his high standards, not only in terms of goals, but also in assists. Poland national team coach Paulo Sousa said in a previous interview that if his protégé did not win the crown, "it would be a great injustice". In addition, 1960 Ballon d'Or winner Luis Suarez Miramontes also believed: "The Ballon d'Or is Levan's." If I don't give him an award this year, I'll give him my trophy! ”
In 2020/21, Levan broke the Bundesliga individual single-season goal record set by Gade Müller in 1971/72, and 1999 Ballon d'Or winner Rivaldo sided with Levan: "Levan is a favourite for the Ballon d'Or, and he will be the deserved winner. Bayern chairman Kahn even described Shi Yifeng as "the benchmark in the forward position for many years". Today, Levan's personal honor cabinet is still short of the most important Ballon d'Or, let's look forward to the best scorer to bring the honor back to Munich!
