The above clip is doing the rounds on social media at the moment, where Rio Ferdinand mentions the Ballon D'Or nine times while commentating over Vinicius Jr.'s goal in the Champions League final. Ignoring the backlash the clip is getting for the commentary itself, lots of people are saying nobody outside of the media actually cares about the Ballon D'Or: this is the tweet that spawned the idea for me to create this discussion, because I realised it's bang on the money in my experience.
Do you care about the Ballon D'Or? In the last 15 years, Messi and Ronaldo have won 13 of them, with the other two going to Modric and Benzema, so I think that contributes to the general apathy to the trophy because it's usually only between two players. Let me know what you reckon, because I've never been particularly fussed about who is going to win it.
