Frank Ribery blasts award
BERLIN. – France’s Franck Ribery says only Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi seem capable of winning the Ballon d’Or and has voiced his frustration after Bayern Munich teammate Manuel Neuer missed out.Portugal’s superstar Ronaldo won the prestigious award for the second year running earlier this month in Zurich with Messi second and goalkeeper Neuer third.
Much to his frustration, Ribery missed out on scooping the 2013 title, also finishing third behind the superstar pair despite strong displays in helping Bayern win that year’s Champions League title.
“I was really angry, but it is the same every year: You don’t know what you have to do in order to win the vote,” Ribery told Munich daily AZ.
The Frenchman questions whether it is even worth a Bayern Munich player bothering to attend the gala award ceremony in the future. – AFP.
