Finally unveiled after the coronation of Lionel Messi, the ranking of votes places Benzema much further from the podium than could be imagined.


Thirty three points.

This is what separates Lionel Messi from Robert Lewandowski at the top of the ranking of votes for the 2021 Ballon d'Or. A few minutes after the seventh coronation of the former Barcelona, ​​France Football revealed the count of the votes of the journalists responsible for electing the lucky one.

And the Argentinian wins there with 613 points, ahead of the Pole's 580.

A fairly small gap.

As a reminder, each of the 180 journalists offers 6 points to the player he considers first, 4 points for the second, 3 points for the third, 2 points for the fourth and 1 point for the fifth.

And if, for a while, we thought he could dream of victory, to see Karim Benzema so far from the front is a little shock.

Despite his magnificent year with Real and with the Blues, the striker finished only fourth in the standings.

Above all, a chasm of more than 200 points separates him from Jorginho, third.

The midfielder, winner of the Euro, totals 460 points, while Karim Benzema has only 239.
