At the 2026 Ballon d'Or awards ceremony, Ronaldo announced Kane as the winner of the prestigious annual award, which was met with thunderous applause.
The camera showed that while the entire audience stood to applaud Kane, Yamal remained seated with a serious expression before eventually joining in. This moment quickly sparked heated discussion online.
Some viewers speculated that Yamal's delayed reaction might be related to not winning the award himself. However, based solely on this video, it is impossible to determine his true thoughts at that moment. The incident became one of the most talked-about moments of this year's Ballon d'Or ceremony.

where does Mbappe came from in this discussion?? he said in interview before when he reached there that Kane would be deserving if he wins it and he also applauded straightaway when R9 announced Kane's name... you people just say things becoz of hatred and don't watch things with open eyes
Mbappe was never deserving d award. He knew that. It's always about Kane and Yamal. Mbappe has only his goals, no trophy to show. Yamal has trophies, defeating Mbappe's Madrid in Spanish Super cup, Laliga and the World Cup trophy defeating Mbappe's France with Spanish national team in d Semi final. While Kane has more goals than Mbappe and still have domestic trophies with Bayern and led his England team to get the World cup bronze. England defeated Mbappe's France in the 3rd place.
