FIFA introduced three footballers on Friday who are vying to win the best player of 2020 award. This time, the spotlight will be on two of the most prominent football stars in the world – Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo – as they face off against the outstanding 'Bayern' striker Robert Lewandowski. Interestingly, it is the Polish player who is the favorite to win the best player of the year title. Last season, the striker led 'Bayern' not only to the 'Bundesliga' gold, but also helped them triumph in the UEFA Champions League. It is worth noting that this year, due to the coronavirus pandemic, the prestigious 'Ballon d'Or' award ceremony will not take place. Last year, in those awards, L. Messi triumphed, leaving Virgil van Dijk behind.
