Vinicius Júnior, revealed by Flamengo, came second in the Ballon d’Or
A Ballon d’Or this year, handed over to Rodri, from Manchester City (ING), continues to generate developments. This Tuesday (29), Brazilian journalist Fernando Kallás criticized the award during a program on ‘Rádio Marca’, in Spain, and cited the inconsistency of ‘France Football‘ magazine.
— Please! Nobody gives Ballon d’Or think about Fair Play! Now, as it is convenient to talk about Fair Play, we talk about Fair Play! No! Please! If not, Dibu Martínez shouldn’t win twice in a row. Dibu Martínez, Fair Play, look at Dibu Martínez’s Fair Play! Dibu Martínez’s Fair Play is stupendous — began Fernando Kallás.
— I lost my temper today and had to resort to my malice in a fit of fury and indignation upon hearing that an award that crowned Dibu Martínez two years in a row took the trophy from Vini for Fair Play — concluded the journalist.
UNDERSTAND THE CASE
‘France Football’ magazine revealed the criteria that would be considered for voting for the best in the world award before the start of the ceremony. Thus, the third and final topic mentioned fair play and the beautiful game on the field.
However, the point cited by journalist Fernando Kallás refers to previous awards. This is because goalkeeper Dibu Martínez, from the Argentine National Team and Aston Villa (ING), known for his provocations on the field, was voted the best goalkeeper on the planet. As a result, the topic was raised as ‘hypocrisy’ and meaningless.
VOTING FOR THE AWARD
Vinicius Júnior, who was considered the main favorite for the best in the world award, came in second place, behind Rodri. Therefore, the result generated worldwide repercussions. Furthermore, fans, former players and active athletes detonated the Ballon d’Or.
