I opened a newspaper "ace" The Spanish vote file for the Golden Ball granted by FIFA,Football,Soccer to the best player in the world, speaking of suspicion of fraud in voting for the award.
The newspaper quoted "Juvenal Edgogo" The former captain of the Equatorial Guinea national team, he was surprised when announcing the votes of the national team leaders and coaches, by changing his choices in favor of the Ivorian Didier Drogba and the Spanish Andres Iniesta, and instead, those responsible for awarding the Golden Ball placed the nominations of the former Equatorial Guinea captain in the box of Cristiano and Messi. .
In 2013, the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, then Real Madrid player, won the award for the second time in his history, ending the monopoly of his Argentine rival Lionel Messi, who had dominated it for 4 consecutive years.
Edgogo says: "In my opinion, these prizes are worthless.. What I can say is that in 2013, I voted for three players for the Ballon d’Or, but when it was announced, I found that my choices were completely different from what I sent".
He continued: "They announced that I voted for Messi and Cristiano, but in fact I don’t know who did it, because I didn’t vote for either of them, that’s why I say: I don’t believe in anything at all about those awards".
Juvenal indicated that he did not talk to anyone about what happened at the time, because he did not care who wins in the end, and concluded: "Since then I have believed that these trophies, including the Ballon d’Or, are of no value".
newspaper says "ace" That reports to newspapers "Mundo Deportivo" And Norwegian and Danish newspapers, all of which confirmed that there are many coaches who talked about falsifying their votes, while awaiting an official response from FIFA,Football,Soccer.
