Lionel Messi wins the Ballon D’Or for the record 5th time

Lionel Messi has won the Ballon D’Or for the record 5th time beating his compatriots Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar to the coveted prize. 

Messi who wears the number 10 jersey for FC Barcelona had watched Ronaldo take the spoils last season which pushed him on to drive his team to win five trophies.

I don’t see how you can be hating on one of the hardest-working individuals to play the game. The best man won. #Messi #Messi5thBallondOr

Can’t see any argument against Messi. Deserving winner and best in the world. By the time he’s done, there will be no one close to him.
