Vini vs Rodri - Ballon d’Or Biggest Robbery?
Description
The 2024 Ballon d’Or event was one to remember, but not necessarily for the best reasons - especially if you’re a Real Madrid fan.
With Vinicius Jr. left without football’s most coveted individual award and Rodri crowned the best player in the world, tensions did run high.
In this video, we discuss the full fallout: From Real Madrid’s complete snubbing of the event to players tweeting cryptically in fierce support of Vini. Is Rodri truly deserving of the title, or has there been a massive injustice?
We also ask some big questions: Does the Ballon d’Or, voted on by select journalists, still hold weight in the modern game? And is the fierce reaction from fans and players alike even worth it?
Tell us your thoughts: Was Vinicius robbed, or was Rodri’s win justified? Is the Ballon d’Or still football’s most prestigious award?
