Every time the Ballon d’Or is celebrated, I understand the Ballon d’Or less and less.
Well, football is a team sport, or so we have always been told, since the beginning of our beginnings, since we were kids and we grabbed the ball and moved forward with our heads down and the ball glued to our feet, when we carried everything on our shoulders. the asphalt of the patio without looking for the combination with the partner, nor did we need to…
(I dribble at three rivals, I dribble at the fourth, I stand in front of the goalkeeper, Vaseline and in. The stage collapses, my teammates chase me to hug me, but I run away from them, because this goal is mine and I celebrate it alone, Let no one overshadow me, I am King Gol; how many times have we dreamed of something like this?
Because football is a team sport, or so we have been told from the beginning of the beginning
When I think about Vinícius, my thesis is reinforced: I cannot understand why the Ballon d’Or exists.
Vinícius is a great footballer and a debatable example for society, no matter how much they make him out to be a champion of the fight against racism:
–Yes, yes, 0-4 (for Barça), but on Monday I’m going to the Ballon d’Or – Gavi told the Barça player on Monday, after his Madrid fiasco at the Bernabéu.
“How good I am, how good I am,” he repeated a few months ago, after an historic play, making any fan who was watching him blush.
–It is very sad to have to talk about racism. I have come to talk about the great players who are here among us – he responded to Didier Drogba during last year’s Ballon d’Or Gala, after receiving the Socrates award.

(By giving up that speech, Vinícius had wasted the unique opportunity to develop his thesis at a generous lectern, in front of the cameras of half the world, stringing together a message prepared in advance and without having to answer questions…).
By giving up going to the last Ballon d’Or this Monday (and he had done so after finding out in advance that the award was not going to be his), Vinícius has already sullied everything: he has exposed the shame of an award that should not exist and He has stripped himself naked, because he has placed his own figure above everything else, including the trophy, including his club (the large white delegation that was supposed to support him refused to take the flight to Paris) and including football itself, a sport hypothetically from a team that has been in the hands of egocentric characters for too long, characters that are the product of awards as expendable as this one, I am referring to the Ballon d’Or.
When will there be a Gold Team award?
