All the World Cup-winning nations chose Lionel Messi as their 1st pick for the Ballon d'Or, except for France.
How does the Ballon d'Or voting work?
A jury of 100 journalists were appointed to a jury and presented with a shortlist of 30 players.
The journalists are picked based on FIFAโs rankings, meaning one journalist from each of the top 100 ranked nations get a vote.( Some may abstain from voting) This can often be confused with the voting process for FIFAโs own award, The Best, which is decided by the managers and captains of national teams.
Each journalist ranks their top five players with the first-choice getting six points, second awarded four, third three, fourth two and fifth one. Whoever gets the most points wins.
Some of the journalists' votes:
Argentina:
Portugal:
France:
Brazil:
Norway:

The process is so flawed. It's clear from the voting that some of them don't vote on the merit and just vote their own favourite. How can Messi or Haaland not be in your Top 5? Such a journalist should be dropped from the panel in future. No accountability

Atleast Norway picked messi, unlike cheap Argentina who didn't even pick haaland infact they think Alvarez and all other Argentine players had better season than Haaland and Mbappe. that's what fifa and Argentina does, spoonfeeds their short baby who can't do anything by himself always needing media to back himself up. and thrash the opposition down.

Imagine if Messi Wins the Copa America again and the MLS What are the chances that he won't win his 9th BalonD'or ๐๐๐ Messi should just win the Copa America And score 20-30 goals in the MLS and leave the f!ght for us ๐๐๐ The Era of Ronaldo vs Messi is over The Era of Mbappe, Haaland, vs Messi just begun ๐ช๐ช๐ช

If kilo muani had scored this goal, the balon dor will be given to mbappe and you people wouldnโt have had any problem with that. Itโs not Haaland you love ,but Messi u hate . Why nobody complaining of mbappe coming third nit de bruyne or Rodri despite their good season and winning the treble ? Well, you guys gonna cry for long time . Ronaldo is nolonger winning another balon dor or not a World Cup .๐๐๐๐ Factors ๐ค๐ค

I have never seen Messi come out on top this many times. Now Ronaldo fans. Let's analyze this. How do u make of Portugal picking Messi ahead of Haaland whom you were busy rooting for? Also notice that Portugal didn't pick Ronaldo in their top 5 votes. Did Messi buy or pay the Portuguese too? The whole world knows the real goat, including Portugal. Only Ronaldo fans argue for Ronaldo. Note the difference.

Guinea and France also didn't vote for Messi, you can see most french speaking countries didn't vote for Messi because of the PAIN he inflicted on them in the Final.

You're in agonising pain indeed. Look at all footballing nations voting Messi. Only Crystiano fans see things differently.
