Former "Barcelona" defender Xavi is upset with the results of the "Ballon d'Or" awards.
A few days ago, it was revealed that Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo was named the best footballer in the world this year, but the Spaniard disagrees with this decision.
The forward with the "royal" club won the UEFA Champions League trophy last season and led the Portuguese national team to European Championship gold in the summer, but in Xavi's opinion, Lionel Messi deserved the Golden Ball more.
"They counted the main trophies, but there were other years when they didn't award the best player in the world," the defender told TV3. "Despite the trophies others have won, Leo Messi is the best."
Xavi constantly repeats his opinion that there is no equal to the Argentinian. In September, Ronaldo even responded to his assessment, stating that he has won three "Ballon d'Or", while Xavi has not won it even once.
