"Barcelona" defender Gerard Pique praised his teammate Lionel Messi once again after another outstanding performance. According to the Spaniard, the sniper should have been recognized as the best football player in the world every year since 2009.
In yesterday's match against "Sevilla," the Argentine scored a goal and made an assist, leading the Catalans to a 2-1 victory.
"If the "Ballon d'Or was awarded to the best player in the world, Leo would have won it every year since 2009. He is on a different level," - Pique wrote on Twitter.
However, in 2013 and 2014, the award was taken by Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo.
As the 2016 elections approach, there is no consensus on the future winner. Ronaldo won the UEFA Champions League with his club and triumphed in the European Championships with his national team, but Messi demonstrates better personal statistics.
