MUNICH. — Bayern Munich’s France midfielder Franck Ribery has said he is “keeping his fingers crossed” having been named among three finalists for the Ballon d’Or. “It’s good for me to be named in the three, but we’ll have to see, I’ll keep my fingers crossed,” he said after Bayern’s 3-2 defeat to Manchester City with Argentina’s Lionel Messi and Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo also named.

“I’m happy, happy for me, for the club, for my whole family.

“But I am a little bit sad for (Zlatan Ibrahimovic) because he’s still a great player and he has done great things with Paris Saint-Germain,” said the Bayern Munich talisman. — AFP.
