So close, so far.
France Football revealed this Friday the details of the Ballon d’Or votes. While we have known since October 28 that Rodri won, we learned today that it was very tight between the middle of Skyblues and Real Madrid striker Vinícius Júnior since there was only 41 points difference between the two.
The Spanish midfielder gleaned 1,170 points out of 1,485 possible (99 voters), “Vini” 1,129 points, compared to 917 for Jude Bellingham, third.. After this trio, the gap widens considerably since the fourth, Dani Carvajal, only has 550 points. First Frenchman, Kylian Mbappé, sixth, gleaned 420 points, 12 less than Erling Haaland and 18 more than Lautaro Martinez, seventh. Another tricolor in this ranking, Saliba, 24eI don’t have 8 points.
So, logical or scandalous?
