MrColdsweat:
For marketing purpose. Messi is the most marketable player in football. Imagine if Argentina had crashed out, so many Messi fans would have left qatar.

It's all about the money. Fifa is no different from nigerian politicians.

There are millions of football lovers around the world, I mean genuine fans not one sided ones who cannot see a fixed worldcup because it favors their favorite player.

Ronaldo is the most followed person on earth on social media, so your argument isn’t great in that sense. But true, Football is all about money and the politics that comes with it.

If this worldcup tilted towards Portugal and Ronaldo, I am sure Messi fans will be cry babies all over. The World Cup was flawed right from the start and people like us who knew early didn’t scream. The politics in football has taken over the round leather game!

Oh!!! The penalty is the problem now? I thought we all agreed Messi sucks at taking penalty under pressure and that's why he couldn't win international title with Argentina

To you idiots, everything is messi vs ronaldo.

I think that's not working. OK, try "FIFA rigged it for Messi". Let's see if that works.

Did u watch France Morocco ?? Did u watch the group games ?? Did u watch what mbappe did to Poland ... Messi was just scoring penalties while mbappe was firing goals ... Scoring a hat trick in a world cup final no b beans .. not just scoring , pulling ur team back ... Mbappe deserved the golden ball... If Messi did the same thing mbappe did and mbappe did same that Messi did , they wud have still given Messi , they will say mbappe was just scoring penalties... Mbappe had 12 goal contributions for France out of 16 goals scored by France ...only 2 penalties played... Messi on the other hand had 10 goal contributions out of the 15 goals by Argentina with 4 penalties... And he played more minutes... Mbappe deserved it

What are you even saying bros.

Messi has 7 GOALS, 3 ASSIST, 7 BIG CHANCES Created, 5 Man Of The Match awards While Mpape has 8 GOALS, 2 ASSIST, 4 BIG CHANCES CREATED and 4 Man Of The Match awards.

Messi turn up for Argentina from match day one to the final while Mpape never showed up against England and Morocco and you still expect mpape to win the golden ball. Haba now. You guys hatred for Messi has gotten to another level abeg. make una dey calm down abeg.

It's like the opp only watch today's final. Let me ask you a question. Between Mpape and Messi, who has carried their team from match day one the most. Or should i also remind you of the number of assist Messi has in this world cup. What about Chances created.

The problem with penaldo fans is that they think football is all about goals. that Is why you keep seeing cr7 fans bringing some stupid stats like "more headed goals, more right footed goal more left footed goals. Haba now.

Messi more than deserve the best player award.

Ask urself aswell. In 2014. Why was was Messi given the player of the tournament ahead of mbappe?

What is good for the goose is also good for the gander.

I don't actually care about the worldcup. I'm just worried about the unadulterated foolishness of humanity.

The world cup cost $220bn.
To eradicate world hunger will cost humanity $30bn a year.
To eradicate malaria will cost $17bn.
Humanity chose entertainment over saving themselves.

We are nothing but cashcows for the criminals in fifa.

First I want to say congratulations to Argentina but....

Why was Messi given the best player of the tournament instead of Mbappe? Even if it was given to Messi I think it should have been shared with Mbappe! That is 2 best players of the tournament!

Someone said because Messi won the world cup.

Let me remind you all that in 2014 Germany won the world cup yet Messi who didn't win the cup still was given best player of the tournament that year.

This is the reason many people still prefer CR7 because he is not pampered like this. And all his achievements were done with so much hate from even people around.
your opinion don't count bro.... All these Ronaldo fans God forbid.
It is not Ronaldo again, it's now Mbappe.

Go and take it away from Messi

Your mbappe was lucky he got more goals than Messi otherwise Messi would have gone home with both awards.

Best player and golden boot awards.

No matter your opinion, he deserved it for lifting the cup. If France had won it, it's Mbanpe for the golden ball and he would have been seen as young Pele of our time.
