Real Madrid’s Fabio Coentrao expressed his opinion on the Ballon d’Or race, stating that Franck Ribéry, despite an exceptional year with five titles, cannot be ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo in individual performance. Coentrao argued that Messi’s injuries and Ribéry’s lower goal-scoring tally (22 goals) compared to Ronaldo’s made the Portuguese star more deserving of the award. The Ballon d’Or finalists include Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, and Franck Ribéry.
