Lol. This girl is an avowed Lionel Messi hater! I agree though, Messi had no business winning in 2010.

You don't know what you are saying. Even milito was rated the best player for inter that year. Sneider no even win world cup self. Messi stats was far better.

robbery is robbery, end of discussion. If you have problems with that go to court

Your face like this alien below.
So you knew Messi benefited from organised robberies in the past. No need of going to court just as some elupeees are wasting their time in court.
CR7 ll continue to be a source of motivation of hardwork for generations to come, and to Messi himself.

Re: What’s The Biggest Individual Award Robbery In Sports ? by mayor1814: 7:19pm On Jun 11, 2023

This sifia pains from Tapnaldo crew members is real. What they forget to understand is dat MESSI IS THE BEST FOOTBALL PLAYER OF ALL TIME. Luis Figo, his fellow countryman said that MESSI doesn't even need d world cup before he can be called d Best ever.

No need to hide behind Pele or mbappe or Maradona. MESSI no get any rival. No competition. All d idea of debate sef, no debate sef.

You don’t care about Sneijder nor Lewandoski. You are just a typical Ronaldo fanboy working so hard to discredit Messi.

If it’s about justice, why did you omit 2013 and even 2014?

2013 was the first time a player was crowned without leading his team to a single trophy.

By your logic, Ribery and Neuer should have won 2013 and 2014 respectively…. Guess what? both awards went to Ronaldo

so apt,you said it all

By the word robbery it simply means that a certain player had worked very hard and won the hearts of football fans who were disappointed to see someone else who has performed less better win the award.

Here are the three biggest robberies, according that u can remembe[/b]r

[b]The first one was Robert Lewandowski in 2020:

Most football lovers and pundits agree that the Polish striker was robbed in 2020 after the award ceremony was cancelled the very year he should have won it.
And instead of giving it to him the next year, it was rather given to Lionel Messi. A Lewandowski victory could have been uncontested like the Benzema triumph last year.

Goal reported that the organisers cited the COVID-19 pandemic as an excuse, but every sane football fan knows it was Lewandowski’s award for the taking.

Another one was Wesley Sneijder.

The Dutchman was snubbed in 2010 even when most football lovers had tipped him to claim the individual gong. His Ballon d’Or snub sparked a lot of controversies, as the playmaker was involved in every trophy his side won

So To All my great Nairalanders football lovers, kindly share your view

You're just a cry baby. The award is based on individual performance more than team performance. It's just that most oenaldo fans always find anything to discredit the G.O.A.T of football. Grow up man

One of Messi's Balloon do'or was actually Ronaldo's own as he performed better that year

Lewandoski was duped of a Balloon do'or award

Perez also stole one of Ronaldo's Balloon do'or award for Modric

I won't forget Andre Ashavin 2005-2006 epl season. I wonder why Ashavin had to score for Arsenal for a game Arsenal didn't need to win, Ashavin scored I think a brace or an hat trick making Liverpool loose the epl titleship that year

Barcelona pulled a fast one on PSG. It's not a feat to forget easily

Andrey Asharvin scored four goals against Liverpool at Anfield that year. The game was a four-all draw

Guy, you know nothing about Balon D’or. Barca won La liga and Copa Del Rey in May 2010….. Spanish Super cup in August/Sept

CWC on Dec/January still within the period under review

UEFA Super is the only thing you can argue about.

is that within the calendar year?

He didnt make top 3 cos he wasn’t better than Iniesta or Xavi plus they were World Cup winners

If you want to argue about who deserved Balon D’or, it should be Iniesta not Sneijder.
