Ronaldo and Messi fought it out for the Ballon d'Or Ballot yesterday although in the end CR7 won at a canter, winning over 37% of the vote. Troubled Messi, got second place with 15.76%. At the FIFA awards, Christiano said, "Yes, it's justified. It was deserved", a modest beginning to his interview. Messi, who is having a tough time deciding what to do after Barcelona, had to put up with the runners-up spot although judging by the photo below, he benefited from a front seat when it came to the best goal award. Both Lionel and C7 had their heads turned by Irish sportswoman, Stephanie Roche, who wore a lacy number, which obviously drew approval from the two best footballers in the World.
Stephanie was walking the boards as runner-up in best goal which was won by James Rodriguez whose World Cup goal for Chile apparently was better than Stephanie's, SEE

Ronaldo is now one Ballon win behind Messi and he follows in the great footsteps of Real Madrid players such as Di Stefano (twice), Raymond Copa, Luis Figo, Ronaldo (the Brazilian) and Cannavaro.
In the best team line up, David Luis is included, somebody who appeared in the Brazilian back four when his team lost 1-7 to Germany in the last World Cup and who has "gone missing" several times in the Premier League. The FIFA-FIFPro-Team of the Year award also provoked ridicule when Thiago Silva, suspended for this crucial match, was selected alongside Luis. FIFA's crazy isn't it?
