Karim Benzema won the Ballon d'Or with the second-largest gap in history.

 


On Friday, it was revealed how many votes Karim Benzema needed to win the Ballon d'Or. 

With Cristiano Ronaldo's performance in 2016, it was the second-largest disparity in history. The only journalists who did not place Benzema first were those from the Netherlands, Slovenia, Senegal, and Egypt.

There was yet another intriguing problem as well. For the Kopa Trophy, Luis Figo placed Gavi first, Camavinga second, and Mendes third. 

While doing so, Modric placed Camavinga first, Gvardiol second, and Musiala third. 

In addition, the Real Madrid player received the support of Kaka, Cannavaro, Papin, and Baggio for the top spot on the list. Zidane cast his ballot for Mendes, Bellingham, and Camavinga.

Keep in mind that Ballon d'Or winners are chosen by public voting and that players under the age of 21 are given the Kopa Trophy. 

Each jury member selects three players, giving them respectively 5 points, 3 points, and 1 point. 

Details of the Ballon d'Or vote

1. Karim Benzema: 549 points

2. Sadio Mane: 193 points

3. Kevin De Bruyne: 175 points

4. Mohamed Salah:170 points

5. Robert Lewandowski: 116 points

Arrogance and self-assurance go hand in hand. Football fans frequently mistake confidence for arrogance and vice versa. Football was a fiercely competitive sport back then, and players had to present an arrogant persona to avoid being easily overpowered or pushed around. The rules of the game have recently undergone significant alteration, and players are now expected to conduct themselves in a respectable manner while on the field. As a result, athletes who occasionally engage in thuggery are now seen as arrogant. Without further ado, let's take a look at five footballers who are perceived to be arrogant. #5 Sergio Ramos At both the club and the international levels, Sergio Ramos has had a distinguished career.
