Messi writes history, wins ‘Ballon d’Or’ for the sixth time
Messi has won the ‘Golden Ball’ for 2019, writing the story after becoming the only player to have won the prize six times, leaving Ronaldo 5 behind.
As expected, Lionel Messi is officially the winner of the ‘Golden Ball’ for 2019, an award given by ‘France Football’.
He beat Virgil van Dijkin, Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Manen to win this award for the sixth time in a row, more than any other player in history.
Leo left Cristiano behind with five ‘Golden Balls’.
This award went to the Argentine thanks to another magical season, where in 50 games in all competitions in the 2018/19 edition, he scored 51 goals and provided 22 assists.
Messi received another individual trophy in October, the ‘The Best’ award given by FIFA, while also snatching the ‘Golden Boot’ this year, also six times, more than any other player in history – simply unmatched .
