adidas Golden Ball candidates announced

As a memorable 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ draws to a close, FIFA has officially announced the names of the ten players in the running for the adidas Golden Ball,
which is awarded to the competition’s most outstanding performer.

The shortlist was drawn up by the members of FIFA’s Technical Study Group,
who have been casting their expert eyes over each and every one of the matches held at Brazil 2014 to date.
Appearing in alphabetical order, the ten contenders for the prestigious accolade are as follows:

- Angel Di Maria (Argentina)
In providing Lionel Messi with the best possible support, Di Maria has led the Albiceleste attack with distinction, posing a constant menace to opposing defences with his long-range shooting, mazy dribbling and finishing skills, which he showcased with a well-taken winner against Switzerland in the Round of 16.

- Mats Hummels (Germany)
The Borussia Dortmund centre-half has attracted much praise for his solid displays at the heart of the German defence.
As if that were not enough, Hummels has also impressed at the other end of the pitch,
rising high to score against Portugal in the group phase and head home the winner against France in the quarter-finals.

- Toni Kroos (Germany)
Kroos ran the show as Die Mannschaft swept aside hosts Brazil 7-1 in the semi-finals, dominating the midfield and posing a constant threat with his passing and shooting,
which brought him two goals – all in a day’s work for this most consistent of performers.

- Philipp Lahm (Germany)
The Germany captain began the tournament in midfield before seamlessly making the switch to the right-back slot,
without it undermining his performance levels or his considerable influence on Joachim Low’s side.

- Javier Mascherano (Argentina)
Though their much-vaunted attack attracts most of the headlines, Argentina have also been solid in defence,
a large part of the credit for which must go to Mascherano for his tireless work in providing the Albiceleste rearguard with essential protection.

- Lionel Messi (Argentina)
Messi had never scored at the world finals prior to Brazil 2014, a record he emphatically set straight with some lethal finishing in each of Argentina’s three group matches.
Though yet to find the back of the net in the knockout rounds, he has remained an influential figure for his side.

- Thomas Muller (Germany)
In opening his campaign with a hat-trick against Portugal, Muller picked up where he left off at South Africa 2010, where he collected the adidas Golden Boot.
His performances since have underlined his status as the spearhead of Germany’s deadly front line.

- Neymar (Brazil)
Though only 22, the livewire forward ably shouldered the huge responsibility of leading A Selecao. Neymar was his side’s stand-out performer with four goals before an unfortunate injury ended his tournament in the quarter-finals.

- Arjen Robben (Netherlands)
The flying Dutch wide man has been in peerless form since putting defending champions Spain to the sword in his side’s opening match.
His incisive runs from deep have been a feature of the tournament.

- James Rodriguez (Colombia)
Recognised as a huge talent heading into the competition, the gifted Rodriguez has since proved his ability to rise to the big occasion.
His haul of six goals in five outings was a major reason why Los Cafeteros broke new ground in reaching the last eight for the first time.

The winners of the adidas Golden Ball, Silver Ball and Bronze Ball will all be announced after Sunday’s Final.

The FIFA Technical Study Group
Headed by Jean-Paul Brigger, the FIFA Technical Study Group assesses the football played in each of the 64 matches at the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™.
Its members are Gerard Houllier (France), Raul Arias (Mexico), Gabriel Calderon (Argentina), Ricki Herbert (New Zealand), Abdel M. Hussein (Sudan),
Ka Ming Kwok (Hong Kong), Ioan Lupescu (Romania), Gines Melendez Sotos (Spain), Tsuneyasu Miyamoto (Japan), Sunday Oliseh (Nigeria),
Mixu Paatelainen (Finland), Jaime Rodriguez (El Salvador) and Theodore Whitmore (Jamaica).

Finalists in contention for Golden Glove



The 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ have witnessed some remarkable displays of goalkeeping
from Guillermo Ochoa’s spectacular stop from Neymar, to Tim Howard’s record-breaking 16 saves against Belgium.

There’s also been a string of fine displays from Costa Rica’s Keylor Navas, penalty heroics from Sergio Romero
and an almost Libero-esque display from Manuel Neuer in Germany’s clash with Algeria.

And it is the two Finalists, Neuer and Romero who head in FIFA’s Technical Study Group’s shortlist for the best goalkeeper at Brazil 2014.

Keylor Navas (CRC)
The Levante stopper was arguably Costa Rica’s best player at Brazil 2014, including a match-winning display in the Round of 16 tie against Greece.
Making 21 saves in Los Ticos’ five games, he was awarded the Budweiser Man of the Match Award on three occasions.
At 26-years-old the best years of his career are firmly ahead of him.

Manuel Neuer (GER)
The Germany keeper has played in all of the Nationalelf’s six games so far, making 25 saves and completing 202 passes.
He’s kept three clean sheets and been a commanding presence for Joachim Low’s side so far.
After winning a host of domestic honours, the UEFA Champions League and the FIFA Club World Cup,
the FIFA World Cup and the Golden Glove is now in his sights.

Sergio Romero (ARG)
Penalty shoot-out saves from Ron Vlaar and Wesley Sneidjer sent La Albiceleste into the final, capping a fine tournament for the 27-year-old so far.
The Monaco keeper has kept four clean sheets, making 15 saves in Brazil 2014 so far.
Brought into international football by Diego Maradona, he has been Argentina’s first choice keeper for five years.

Depay, Pogba and Varane make up Best Young Player shortlist



FIFA’s Technical Study Group (TSG) today released the shortlist for the Hyundai Best Young Player Award,
featuring three up-and-coming performers that have starred at the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™.

The accolade continues the tradition of officially recognising the positive impact made by young footballers,
and is open to all participating players born on or after 1 January 1993. The winner will be selected by the TSG and unveiled on FIFA.com after the World Cup Final.

The emergence of young footballing talent on the global stage is one of the joys of any World Cup and Brazil 2014 has been no exception.

These burgeoning stars may have already been relatively well-known prior to the opening ceremony in Sao Paulo,
but there is little doubt that the three nominated for the prestigious Hyundai Best Young Player Award have earned new admirers
during the tournament for their carefree and refreshing styles of play, as well as their surprisingly mature tactical nous.

The Hyundai Best Young Player Award is one of the official FIFA awards and is selected by the TSG, a FIFA-appointed group of top football coaches and analysts,
whose director Jean-Paul Brigger is a former Swiss international, Swiss domestic league champion (with Sion) and the country’s Player of the Year in 1992.
He is also a five-time winner of the Swiss Cup and was named Swiss Coach of the Year in 1995.

The nominees for the Hyundai Best Young Player Award at the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil are as follows:

Memphis Depay (NED): Fresh from an excellent season with PSV Eindhoven, Memphis Depay has confirmed his growing reputation at Brazil 2014.
After coming off the bench during the Netherlands’ second match with Australia,
the Moordrecht native made a crucial impact, netting a goal and setting up another; in doing so, he became the most youthful Dutch goalscorer in World Cup history.
He then got on the scoresheet once more as the Oranje defeated Chile in their third and final group game. Pacey, unselfish and clinical in front of goal,
Depay was again used as an impact substitute versus Mexico, before becoming the youngest Dutchman to begin a World Cup encounter since 1938
against Costa Rica in the quarter-finals, completing his journey from rising star to established starter in the process.

Paul Pogba (FRA): Although he is still only 21 years of age, Paul Pogba is already one of France’s key players.
The Juventus star gained his first taste of international success last year at the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Turkey,
where his skills and subtlety of touch helped Les Bleuets to emerge victorious from the competition and enabled him to
earn the adidas Golden Ball award. In Brazil, the energetic midfielder showed the full array of his talents,
including an opening goal in Les Bleus’ Round-of-16 clash with Nigeria.
Having firmly established himself in the side, Pogba is likely to be one of the first names on France’s teamsheet for many years to come.

Raphael Varane (FRA): Absent from the 2013 U-20 World Cup due to injury,
Raphael Varane nevertheless enjoyed a successful club season in Spain and on the continental stage.
The Real Madrid player confirmed his wunderkind status at Brazil 2014,
where he performed admirably at centre-back in a French defence that conceded just three goals in the tournament.
Composed on the ball, quick and aggressive in the challenge, and accurate when passing from the back, the imposing 21-year-old is the epitome of the modern defender.
While many fans in Europe were already aware of Varane’s potential, the World Cup has provided a platform for him to prove it to the entire planet.

世盃金球獎候選人 德國阿根廷共佔7人


【now.com體育】世界盃已經接近尾聲，國際足協（FIFA）公佈了世盃金球獎的10人入圍名單，殺入決賽的德國及阿根廷，合共有7人入選，如美斯、湯馬士梅拿等。

世界盃金球獎候選名單由包括香港郭家明在內的FIFA技術小組選出，10人入圍名單中，德國隊為「大戶」，隊長拿姆、中場卻奧斯、後衛曉姆斯，以及射入5球的中場湯馬士梅拿也有入選。

阿根廷就有射入4球的美斯、翼鋒迪馬利亞、後衛馬斯真蘭奴，其餘3人為因傷緣盡世界盃的巴西前鋒尼馬、荷蘭前鋒洛賓，

以及8強出局後變大喊包、目前以6球列射手榜首位的哥倫比亞人氣球星占士洛迪古斯。

FIFA同時公佈了最佳年輕球員候選名單，分別為荷蘭的迪比、法國前鋒普巴及後衛華拉尼。

至於哥斯達黎加的基羅拿華斯、阿根廷的羅美路、德國的紐亞將角逐最佳門將殊榮。

墨西哥的奧祖亞及美國的候活雖然都在今屆賽事表現突出，無奈所屬國家隊8強不入，顯然都是落選原因。

梅拿、美斯、尼馬、洛賓應該點揀呀

亂選一通

最佳門將應該係 navas 啦，romero 除左救左兩個十二碼之外就無咩特別，neuer 受既考驗亦唔算大……

最佳年輕球員本來 depay 好有優勢，但係唔知點解季軍戰唔出佢，無機會俾佢爭取分數……

neuer 係今次世界盃打出左門道夫 (門將+清道夫)既名堂，加上過往咁多屆都係歐洲門將+決賽隊伍門將拎，我估今次係 neuer
