    Messi won Golden Ball?

    what a joke, guy hasn't scored a single goal in knockout stage. Lahm should have won it.

    lol maybe they gave it to him cuz he was there. after single handedly dragging argentina through the group stages he didn't to much from there on out when it mattered. should have gone to either rodruigez, muller or maybe even robben.

    apparently it was due to his sponsorship with Adidas. Adidas is the 1 who sponsors the award as well as sponsoring Messi

    The public doesn't care much for Blatter, but the people inside FIFA absolutely love him. Not sure why, as I am on your side, but FIFA thinks thinks the guy is the shit and wants him to run for presidential re-election despite his promise not to.

    It's all about marketing. How did Kevin Durant do in the playoffs when they gave him the MVP? Tony Parker should have won it.

    Messi didn't look happy about winning it. Guy is a team player, would've traded all his individual trophies for the grand finale win.

    Ronaldo is much more selfish, he would've been content with the Golden Ball even being on the losing side.

    Thanks, 15K was actually many months ago, must've had posts removed somehow. I haven't been around much lately.

    It was more of the timing the award was given. After a loss you just want to go home..not getting awards and celebrating.
