Haaland + 18 goals
Messi + 15 assists
Net goal contribution of Haaland is just merely 3 compared to Messi
Messi carried Argentina to the holy grail of the World Cup trophy at 36 years old
Without a doubt he deserved the Ballon D’or, how are people saying Haaland deserves it instead?
Man City has 5 players in the top 10 of the Ballon D’or, the team is stacked, winning the treble was a collective effort not solely relying on Haaland
Messi carried the Argentina team to the World Cup, a greater display of individuality, which is what the Ballon D’or celebrates, which is bullshit really, since football is a team sport.
But that’s another whole topic altogether.
Messi deservedly won the Ballon D’or over Haaland.
