Real Madrid's Karim Benzema Wins Ballon d'Or (The New York Times)

The Real Madrid forward won the voting after a season when Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were nowhere in sight. Barcelona's Alexia Putellas repeated as ...

That he has had to wait so long to flourish on his own accord is a measure of the height of the bar set by Messi and Ronaldo, and of the challenge of thriving in an era marked by twin greats. Benzema may not have been the decisive player in the Champions League final, an honor that fell to his teammate Vinícius Júnior, but he had unquestionably been the defining figure in Real’s journey to the final in Paris. When that advantage seemed to have been wasted in the return fixture, it was Benzema who lifted Real Madrid once more, scoring the extra-time goal that sealed its place in the semifinal. Benzema joined Real Madrid in the same summer as Ronaldo, though to rather less fanfare. And yet that assessment risks not only turning Benzema’s triumph into a subplot in a story of Messi and Ronaldo’s fall, but also ignoring the context for his victory. Benzema did not win the Ballon d’Or because Messi and Ronaldo finally fell to earth. (Benzema’s Real Madrid teammate Luka Modric was the other exception, in 2018.) It is the first time since 2006 that neither man has at least been on the podium. The blunt measures, of course, are the trophies — his fifth Champions League, another Spanish title — and the goals: 27 in La Liga, 15 in just a dozen games in Europe. Ferré hoped that measure — clearly directed at what might be regarded as legacy voters for Messi and Ronaldo — would make the Ballon d’Or an “open competition, rather than a preserve.” It is, after all, only the second time since 2008 that a player other than Messi or Ronaldo has been anointed as the best on the planet. (Ferré, more than a little disparagingly, said this new “elite” panel represented the “real connoisseurs” of the game.) But the tournament is a feeling that money can’t buy,

The striker guided Real Madrid to their 14th Champions League crown last season.

Senegal international Mane, who left Liverpool this summer, was recognized for his contribution towards development in his home country where the 30-year-old has helped to build schools and hospitals -- notably in his hometown of Bambali. Well, it wasn't Real Madrid as the award went to Manchester City, with six total Ballon d'Or nominees, including Lucy Bronze on the women's team. Borussia Dortmund's Jude Bellingham might feel that he had a strong case to pip the Spain international to the prize, but the Englishman will have to wait again after finishing second and now fourth. Courtois succeeds PSG and Italy's Gianluigi Donnarumma with 23 competitive clean sheets across all competitions. I am still here, though!" Two years into this award and the 34-year-old has established a 100 percent win rate by taking the two maiden titles. Listen below and follow ¡Qué Golazo! I want to thank the technical staff and the coach as well. Barca lost out to Olympique Lyonnais in the women's Champions League, but the Spaniard was still voted the best player and top scored with 11 goals. I always had motivation thanks to my two role models of Zizou (Zinedine Zidane) and Ronaldo (Nazario), but I did not give up. (Real Madrid) Real Madrid and France's Karim Benzema has won the 2022 Ballon d'Or title on the men's side after topping the 2021-22 season voting.

Karim Benzema Ballon d'Or winner: goals, performance and ... (AS English)

From the titles he won, to the goals he scored, to the assists he made, the 2021 campaign was nothing short of incredible for Karim Benzema.

Here’s one for you statisticians out there: Benzema scored 10 goals in the Champions League knockout stages of the 2021-22 campaign. Last but not least, the former Lyon striker, is only the fourth player to win both the Pichichi trophy - La Liga’s award for the top goals corer - as well as the UEFA Champions League’s Golden Boot in the very same season. We should also mention, that he became just the second player to score consecutive UEFA Champions League hat-tricks in the knockout stages, with the aforementioned Ronaldo once again being the other player to do it against Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid in that said same campaign of 2017. In each of those competitions Benzema played a central role for his teams and without doubt enjoyed the best goalscoring form of his glittering career, which by the way doesn’t seem to be slowing down. From the very early stages of the 2021-22 season, it was pretty obvious that Karim Benzema was firing on all cylinders. Even more incredible is the fact that he registered more direct goal contributions than goal machine
