Cristiano Ronaldo has conquered the Globe Soccer Award by sixth time in his sportive career, that him condecora like better player of the year 2018 of form something inexplicable, taking into account that neither Luka Modric neither Leo Messi were present between the three first. Antoine Griezmann and Kylian Mbappé were those who completed the podium.

The ceremony celebrated this Thursday in Dubái, and Cristiano Ronaldo was the big benefited together with the Athletic of Madrid, that carried the prize to Better Team of 2018 when having conquered the UEFA Europe League and the Supercopa of Europe. Didier Deschamps proclaimed Better Trainer of the Year when having guided to the French Selection course to the conquest of the World-wide of Russia 2018.

On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo was the one who delivered the prize to the Best Agent of the Year to his own representative: Jorge Mendes. It is the seventh time that Mendes wins this prize, and fits to remember that the Portuguese keeps a big relation with Cristiano Ronaldo from does years. Fabio Paratici -Juventus-won the prize to the Best Sportive Director of the Year.

Finally, the midfield player of the Juventus of Turín, Blaise Matuidi, carried the prize to the Best Career when having won already a World-wide and leagues with Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus, two of the most competitive clubs of the European panorama. A ceremony, in definite, that could consider little equitativa in some prizes, and very logical in others.

The more remarcable was the absence of Leo Messi and Luka Modric between the nominated, seeing the spectacular figures of Leo Messi in 2018 so much in the field goleador as in the one of assistances, dribblings, goals of fault, shots to the stick and a long etcetera. Modric, on the other hand, went the winner of the FIFA The Best and the Balloon of Gold after his successes with the Real Madrid and Croatia, something that not even cost him to be in the podium.

Leo Messi will take the revancha in this 2019

Controversies aside, fits to highlight that this is the sixth Globe Soccer Award that wins Cristiano Ronaldo, whereas Leo Messi so only has won one (the one of 2015) along his career futbolística. A data that already says a lot on the preferences of those who commission to organise the prize and transmit his votes for the final election.

Leo Messi, that in the last months has been desprestigiado in all the individual prizes, is decided to take the revancha along the season 2018-19, with his gestas on the terrain of game and the achievement of collective titles with the FC Barcelona, between them a Champions League that does not win from the year 2015.
