Ballon d’Or Rankings for 2018

As much as fans would like to say that football is a team game, the fight for the prestigious Ballon d'Or will always be a different quest. The best players in the world fight it out every single year to become the best among the elite.

Of course, the past decade has seen it being shared only by two players- Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi (no doubt about that). However, this World Cup year things might go differently. Check if you want to learn about the new competitors in the line.

#10.DiegoGodin(Uruguay)

This man is one of a kind. This Uruguay skipper is a right contender for this year's Ballon d’Or.

#9.EdinsonCavani(Uruguay)

This Uruguayan player is nearing 50 goals for club and country this season.

#8.KevinDeBruyne(Belgium)

Kevin De Bruyne is Belgium's creative force in midfield. Do we need to know more about him? I guess not.

#7.AntoineGriezmann(France)

His last month scorecard showed that he was in 4th position. But things have changed. His poor formation made him drop few notches down in the power ranking.

#6.MohamedSalah(Egypt)

Mohamed Salah do not have a World Cup to remember, but he is there in the list.

#5.LukaModric(Croatia)

This is working right and good for Luka. How can we forget that remarkable Argentina v/s Croatia match!

#4.HarryKane(England)

He is in the good page of the game. If you ever have to choose someone to score a penalty to save your life, please choose Harry Kane.

#3.KylianMbappe(France)

Kylian Mbappe - the most exciting teenage sensation since Pele.

#2.LionelMessi(Argentina)

Messi is the only player to have delivered an assist in each of the last four World Cups. Divine!

#1.CristianoRonaldo(Portugal)

Isn’t it on-the-face kind of obvious? Unfortunately, things didn’t work out for the man.
