A Double Take at The Fifa Ballon d'Or for Messi

Two wins in consecutive years for the forward Leo Messi at only 23. Nominated the best player of 2010, the Argentinean soccer wonder has proven he is a full-win against all odds and adversaries.

 

The Barcelona forward, nominated together with two other Barcelona players, Iniesta e Xavi, won the Fifa Ballon d'Or for 2010 despite his disappointment for the Argentinean national team's performance during the World Cup in South Africa. No matter what, at only 23, he remains a super winner and favourite golden boy holding a golden cup. The last time a player was awarded in consecutive years, was with Van Basten in 1989. There is something to be proud of whilst hiding away the elegant shyness dressed in his first official outing in Dolce&Gabbana.
