After two second places behind his favorite rivals Real Madrid in recent years, the Argentine was honored for a professional footballer on Monday evening at the Kongresshaus of Zurich as already from 2009 to 2012 with the main award.

As expected, Messi Brazilian teammate from FC Barcelona, ​​Neymar, not intervene as a third for the finals at the FIFA Gala nominated players in the decision for the Ballon d’Or. “Every year you want to be better than the year before.
