Real Madrid's Fabio Cannavaro, the captain of
Italy's soccer World Cup champion team, poses with his Golden Ball
award during a press conference at the headquarters of French sports
daily 'L'Equipe', Monday, Nov. 27, 2006 in
Issy-les-Moulineaux, outside Paris. | Italy captain Fabio Cannavaro won the Golden Ball
award Monday, the first defender in 10 years selected as
Europe's best player.
Cannavaro, who played for Juventus but moved to Real Madrid after
helping Italy win the World Cup, got 173 points in France Football
magazine's annual poll of 52 journalists from around the world. Juventus
goalie Gianluigi Buffon was second with 124 points, followed by Arsenal
striker Thierry Henry with 121.
FC Barcelona playmaker Ronaldinho, who won the award last year, was
fourth with 73 points. France's Zinedine Zidane was fifth with 71.
Cannavaro is the third defender in 30 years to win - Matthias Sammer won
the award in 1996 and Franz Beckenbauer in 1976.
He was also the fifth Italian to win, following Roberto Baggio (1993),
Paolo Rossi (1982), Gianni Rivera (1969) and Argentine-born Omar Sivori
(1961).
"This is a double honor," Cannavaro said. "It is given to the best
player, and the fact I am a defender makes it even more special."
"It is a fantastic award, the crowning achievement of an
exceptional year," said Italy's coach Marcelo Lippi,.
The 33-year-old Cannavaro also has also played for Napoli, Parma and
Inter Milan. At Parma, he played 212 league games and formed one of Serie
A's best defensive partnerships with Lilian Thuram.
"I think he deserves the award if we take into account the World Cup as
a whole," Thuram told French television.

意大利國(guó)家足球隊(duì)現(xiàn)任隊(duì)長(zhǎng)法比奧·卡納瓦羅于本周一榮膺“歐洲金球獎(jiǎng)”，這是十年來首位后衛(wèi)球員獲此殊榮。
今年夏天卡納瓦羅帶領(lǐng)意大利國(guó)家隊(duì)奪得世界杯冠軍，之后，他離開尤文圖斯俱樂部，加盟皇馬俱樂部。法國(guó)《足球》雜志每年都會(huì)召集來自世界各地的52名記者評(píng)選出當(dāng)年的歐洲足球先生，今年卡納瓦羅以173分捧回金球獎(jiǎng)杯，尤文圖斯俱樂部隊(duì)守門員布馮和阿森納俱樂部隊(duì)前鋒特里·亨利分別以124分和121分名列第二位和第三位。
去年的金球獎(jiǎng)得主、巴塞羅那俱樂部前鋒羅納爾迪尼奧今年以73分位居第四。法國(guó)的齊達(dá)內(nèi)以71分排名第五。卡納瓦羅是30年來第三位當(dāng)選歐洲足球先生的后衛(wèi)，此前的兩位是1996年的馬蒂亞斯·薩默爾（德國(guó)）和1976年的弗蘭茲·貝肯鮑爾（德國(guó)）。
同時(shí)，卡納瓦羅是繼羅伯特·巴喬（1993）、保羅·羅西（1982）、吉安尼·里維拉（1969）和阿根廷裔球員奧馬·施華尼（1961）之后第五位獲此殊榮的意大利球員。
卡納瓦羅說：“這個(gè)獎(jiǎng)對(duì)于我來說是個(gè)雙重榮譽(yù)。一方面，這是一個(gè)最佳球員的獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)，而我又是后衛(wèi)出身，所以這個(gè)獎(jiǎng)對(duì)于我來說更加特別。”
意大利國(guó)家隊(duì)教練馬爾切洛·里皮說：“對(duì)于意大利足球來說，今年是不同尋常的一年，這個(gè)特殊的獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)則是意大利隊(duì)在這一年中得到的最高榮譽(yù)。”
33歲的卡納瓦羅曾效力于意大利的拿波里、帕爾瑪和國(guó)際米蘭俱樂部。他在帕爾瑪俱樂部共打了212場(chǎng)聯(lián)賽，并和利利安·圖拉姆組成了意甲聯(lián)賽中最堅(jiān)固的后防線。
圖拉姆在接受法國(guó)電視臺(tái)的采訪時(shí)說：“卡納瓦羅帶領(lǐng)意大利隊(duì)奪得本屆世界杯的冠軍，這個(gè)獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)應(yīng)該屬于他。”
