Inter Miami CF forward Lionel Messi has won the Ballon d’Or for a record eighth time after shrugging off competition from Manchester City striker Erling Haaland.
Messi (36), lifted the 2022 FIFA World Cup with Argentina, while Haaland, who finished second in voting, scored 52 goals last season as Manchester City won the Treble in the 2022-23 season.
However, the Norwegian won the Gerd Muller Trophy given to the best striker of the year.
During his acceptance speech, Messi, who became the first MLS-based player to the Ballon d’Or, said, as quoted by <a href="https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/38779218/ballon-dor-2023-lionel-messi-beats-erling-haaland-win-award-record-eighth">ESPN</a>:
<blockquote>
I couldn’t imagine having the career that I’ve had. Everything that I’ve achieved. The fortune I’ve had playing for the best team in the world, the best team in history. It’s nice to win these individual trophies.
To win the Copa America and then the World Cup, to get it done is amazing. All of them [Ballon d’Or awards] are special for different reasons.
</blockquote>
Meanwhile, Barcelona and Spain midfielder Aitana Bonmatí won the Ballon d’Or Féminin after she helped Barça win Liga F and the Champions League last season, before leading Spain to World Cup glory in the summer.
Messi’s Argentina teammate Emiliano Martinez won the Yashin Trophy for best goalkeeper.
England and Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham was handed the Kopa Trophy as the world’s top player under the age of 21.
Messi first won the Ballon d’Or in 2009 and then again in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015, 2019 and 2021.
Cristiano Ronaldo has won it five times, while Michel Platini, Johan Cruyff and Marco van Basten are all three-time winners.
According to ESPN, Messi scored 21 goals in 41 appearances in the 2021/22 season as Paris Saint-Germain retained the Ligue 1 title before moving to Inter Miami earlier this year.
He has scored 11 goals in 14 games for Miami, helping the franchise win its first-ever piece of silverware, the Leagues Cup.

Lionel Messi Wins Ballon d'Or For Eighth Time

Lionel Messi won his first trophy in North American soccer on Sunday after his team Inter Miami emerged victorious in a League Cup final against Nashville, triumphing on penalties (10-9) after the match ended 1-1 in regular time. 
The former Barcelona forward scored a goal in the 24th minute giving Miami the lead. However, Fafa Picault equalised for Nashville in the second half.
Messi’s teammate, Leonardo Campana, missed a golden opportunity to secure victory for Miami in regulation time sending the match to a penalty shootout.
Messi joined Miami just a month ago when the team languished at the bottom of Major League Soccer but his arrival has sparked a remarkable transformation. Miami embarked on an unbeaten run, culminating in their triumph in the League Cup.
The Argentine international has been in scintillating form, netting 10 goals in seven appearances for his new club. Miami now looks forward to the semi-final of the US Open Cup against Cincinnati, offering another opportunity for Messi to reach the final.
While the match against Nashville did not showcase Miami’s usual dominance and flair, the victory was a testament to their resilience. Sergio Busquets, the Spanish midfielder, acknowledged the element of luck in penalty shootouts and expressed his delight at winning Miami’s first title within a month. He said:
<blockquote>
It was very exciting. The draw was a fair result and on penalties is the luck of the champion, which in this case came in our favor.
I am very happy to win our first title in just one month, the club’s first. The team is growing by leaps and bounds and we are very happy
We have infected the team with our spirit, our work, our character and experience. We are making a solid team … And then we have Leo, who makes a difference because he’s the best in the world.
</blockquote>
Nashville posed a threat from set-pieces, as demonstrated by Walker Zimmerman’s header that forced a save from Callender.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored two goals for Al Nassr-Al Hilal, Al Nassr of Saudi Arabia when they played Lionel Messi’s Paris Saint Germain (PSG) in a friendly match played in the Middle Eastern nation’s capital.

This match was little more than a showcase event between two star-studded squads featuring two iconic players, but the two teams will hope that good performance can springboard them further into the season’s competitive matches. The attacking talent on both sides really did steal the show.

Messi Wears PSG's Number 10 For The 1st Time, Balotelli Gets Italian Job

Paris Saint Germain footballer, Lionel Messi, has called upon France Football to award the 2020 Ballon d’Or to Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski.
The 2020 Ballon d’Or was been cancelled due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the football calendar. 
France Football, who organise the ceremony, stated that the several months of disruptions caused by coronavirus has made it impossible to treat the 2019-20 season as a regular year to judge football properly and fairly.
Speaking at last night’s 2021 Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris, Messi said Lewandowski deserved to be crowned the 2020 Ballon d’Or winner. Said the Argentine:
<blockquote>
I’d like to mention Robert, it’s been a real honour to compete with him. I think France Football should award you your 2020 Ballon d’Or, you deserved it.
Hopefully France Football will give you the 2020 Ballon d’Or. We all believe you deserved it and I hope you can have it at home.
</blockquote>
Messi made the remarks after <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2021/11/30/lionel-messi-wins-mens-ballon-dor-for-a-record-extending-7th-time/">claiming the most prestigious individual prize in football for a record seventh time</a>, beating Lewandowski by a fine margin of just 33 voting points.
Some consider Lewandowski unlucky to miss out on the Ballon d’Or having scored 51 times in 40 club appearances this season, breaking Gerd Muller’s single-season Bundesliga scoring record and lifting a German league and cup double in the process.

France Football Should Award Robert Lewandowski His 2020 Ballon d’Or - Messi

Warriors midfielder Marshal Munetsi said that playing against arguably the world’s best-ever footballer, Lionel Messi was a great experience for him.
Munetsi, who plays for French League 1 club Stade de Reims, was tasked by the club’s manager to man-mark the superstar when the team clashed with Paris Stain-Germain in a league encounter last week.
Messi, who was making his debut for the Paris club, was harassed by the Warriors midfielder.
Despite Reims losing the match 2-0 thanks to Kylian Mbappe’s brace, the Mabvuku-born star stood toe-to-toe with the six-time Ballon d’Or winner.
He also thought he had cancelled out Mbappe’s opener, only for his goal to be ruled out following a VAR intervention.
<blockquote>
Speaking in a recent interview with NewsDay, the 25-year-old former Orlando Pirates player said it was a good experience for him to see Messi in person. He said:
Playing against Messi was a great experience for me, growing up watching him and winning six Ballon d’Or … all the things that he achieved with Barcelona.
It was a great opportunity for me and we tried as a team to get a positive result. We have had three draws.
Playing Paris Saint Germain was a huge task for us because they have top quality players including Messi, so it was a good experience for me to learn and to see him live in person.
</blockquote>
Messi was on the receiving end of a couple of tough tackles from Munetsi during the match, but the two were seen exchanging some pleasantries at the final whistle. Munetsi added:
<blockquote>
Yeah, we spoke. It was those usual exchanges and he was just wishing me the best for the season and the usual good luck we always share after the game.

Munetsi Speaks On Man-marking Lionel Messi

Argentina’s captain Lionel Messi has scored his 79th international career goal surpassing the South American men’s record held by Brazil legend Pele.
Messi scored all three goals in Argentina’s 3-0 win over Bolivia on Thursday in a World Cup qualifying match at the Monumental stadium in Buenos Aires.
The hattrick gave the PSG forward two more than Pele, who had 77 career goals in international play.
Messi trails Brazilian duo Marta (109) and Cristiane (96) for the overall record for most goals scored by any South American player at the international level.
Third on the men’s list is Messi’s Paris Saint-Germain teammate Neymar, who has 69 international goals for Brazil. Speaking after the match, Messi said:
<blockquote>
I was very nervous, I just wanted to enjoy the night. I waited a long time for this.
We won the game [and] that was the most important thing and now we can celebrate.
</blockquote>
Messi (34), has had a memorable summer -winning his first senior international football title in July.
He and La Albiceleste claimed the Copa America from Brazil in a 1-0 win at Rio de Janeiro’s Maracana stadium.
After Thursday’s result, Messi danced with his teammates and showed off the Copa trophy to the 21 000 supporters present.
With 26 goals in World Cup qualifying matches following his hat-trick against Bolivia, Messi also passes Uruguay star Luis Suarez for most among CONMEBOL players.
With eight career goals vs. Bolivia in 11 games, it is Messi’s most against a single opponent while donning the Argentina shirt.
Messi is also his country’s men’s all-time leading scorer, having moved past Gabriel Batistuta (54 goals) in 2016.
He is also Argentina’s most capped player, with Thursday’s match against Bolivia marking his 153rd international appearance.
Prior to the Copa America victory, Messi had lost four major finals with Argentina’s senior side.
They were beaten by Germany in the 2014 World Cup final and had lost in the final at the Copa America in 2007, 2015 and 2016.
He had won the under-20 World Cup in 2005 and an Olympic gold medal with Argentina’s U23s in 2008.

Messi Scores His 644th Goal For Barcelona To Surpass Pele's 643 Goals For Santos

Barcelona captain Lionel Messi has revealed the heartbreak of his decision to leave Barcelona – and why he ultimately chose to stay with the club in a world exclusive with Goal.com.
The 33-year-old, who has spent two decades at the Catalan club, announced that he wanted to leave Barcelona on a free transfer in late August.
However, the club refused to recognise the break in his contract, as they claimed the moment for using it had passed in June.
Messi eventually accepted he must stay at Camp Nou to avoid dragging his beloved club to court. He told Goal.com:
<blockquote>When I communicated my wish to leave to my wife and children, it was a brutal drama.
The whole family began crying, my children did not want to leave Barcelona, nor did they want to change schools.
But I looked further afield and I want to compete at the highest level, win titles, compete in the Champions League.
You can win or lose it, because it is very difficult, but you have to compete.
At least compete for it and let us not fall apart in Rome, Liverpool, Lisbon. All that led me to think about that decision that I wanted to carry out.
I thought and was sure that I was free to leave, the president always said that at the end of the season I could decide if I stayed or not.
Now they cling to the fact that I did not say it before June 10, when it turns out that on June 10 we were competing for La Liga in the middle of this awful coronavirus and this disease altered all the season.
And this is the reason why I am going to continue in the club. Now I am going to continue in the club because the president told me that the only way to leave was to pay the €700 million (£624m/$823m) clause and that this is impossible.
… There was another way and it was to go to trial. I would never go to court against Barca because it is the club that I love, which gave me everything since I arrived.
It is the club of my life, I have made my life here.
Barca gave me everything and I gave it everything. I know that it never crossed my mind to take Barca to court.
I love Barcelona and I’m not going to find a better place than here anywhere. Still, I have the right to decide.
I was going to look for new goals and new challenges. And tomorrow I could go back because here in Barcelona I have everything.</blockquote>
Messi will now prepare to start the season under new Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman.

Lionel Messi Speaks On His Decision To Stay At Barca

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi has finally opened up on why he wanted to leave the club at the end of the 2019/2020 season.
Speaking during an interview with Goal.com, Messi said he believed that club needed new young players and also because he had suffered a lot during the season, hence he wanted to try something different.
The Argentina captain, however, refuted claims that the ignominious 8-2 Champions League defeat by Bayern Munich influenced his decision to quit Barcelona.
Messi also accused Barcelona club president Josep Maria Bartomeu of reneging on his promise to allow him to leave the club. Said, Messi:
<blockquote>I told the club, including the president, that I wanted to go. I’ve been telling him that all year. I believed it was time to step aside.
I believed that the club needed more young players, new players and I thought my time in Barcelona was over.
I felt very sorry because I always said that I wanted to finish my career here.
It was a very difficult year, I suffered a lot in training, in games and in the dressing room.
Everything became very difficult for me and there came a time when I considered looking for new ambitions.
It did not come because of the Champions League result against Bayern, no – I had been thinking about the decision for a long time.
I told the president and, well, the president always said that at the end of the season I could decide if I wanted to go or if I wanted to stay and in the end, he did not keep his word.
… Of course I had a hard time deciding. It does not come from the Bayern result, it comes from many things.
I always said I wanted to end here and I always said I wanted to stay here. That I wanted a winning project and to win titles with the club, to continue expanding the legend of Barcelona.
And the truth is that there has been no project or anything for a long time, they juggle and cover holes as things go by. As I said before, I always thought about the welfare of my family and the club.</blockquote>

Bayern Munich Humiliate Barcelona To Proceed To UEFA Champions League Semis

Barcelona forward, Lionel Messi has been slapped with a two months ban from international football after he accused <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2019/07/08/barcelona-star-lionel-messi-faces-2-year-ban-its-non-of-his-business/">Copa America of being corrupt.</a>
The Argentine was given marching orders in Argentina’s 2-1 third-place play-off win over Chile and later said the “cup was fixed for Brazil”.
Earlier, soccer pundits had predicted that Argentina captain could <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2019/07/08/barcelona-star-lionel-messi-faces-2-year-ban-its-non-of-his-business/">be banned for at least two years.</a>
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was also fined $50,000 (£41,121) by Conmebol, the South American Football Confederation.
The 32-year-old nimb footed footballer still has seven days to appeal the ruling.
The suspension means that Messi will miss Argentina’s upcoming friendlies against Chile, Mexico and Germany in September and October.
