The Most Ballon d'Or Winners 1956–2024 | Bar Chart Race

All Ballon d'Or Winners 1956 - 2024 In this video, you can see the Ballon d'or winner as well as the other footballers who finished in the top three places for the award. The Ballon d'Or is considered one of the most prestigious awards in global football, awarded annually to the best-performing male player on the planet. Introduced by France Football in 1956, the award is determined by a global panel of journalists who judge candidates based on their achievements in both club and international competitions during the previous calendar year. Originally, eligibility was limited to European players, but over time the award has come to recognize talent from all corners of the world, reflecting the truly international nature of the sport. From 2010 to 2015, the Ballon d'Or was combined with FIFA's Player of the Year title under the name FIFA Ballon d'Or, but this partnership ended in 2016 and the award reverted to its original name and administration. Over the years, football legends such as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have left an indelible mark on the award's history, collectively winning the trophy more than a dozen times. Players are judged not only on their individual talent, but also on their impact on team success and overall contribution to the game. #ballondor #mostballondorwinners #ballondorwinnersbyyear #ballondorhistory #ballondorracebarchart #ballondortimeline #ballondor1956to2024 #fifaballondor #ballondorstats #ballondorcomparison #ballondortopwinners #ballondorvideo #ballondoranimation #lionelmessi #cristianoronaldo #stanleymatthews #michelplatini #johancruyff #marcovanbasten #georgebest #karimbenzema #lukamodric #ronaldinho #kaka #zinedinezidane #neymarjr #robertlewandowski #thierryhenry #ballondormessi #ballondorronaldo #messiVSronaldo #messi2024 #ronaldoballondor #fifafootballawards #footballlegends #greatestfootballers #bestfootballplayersever #footballhistory #worldfootballstats #footballbarchart #fifahistory #uefa #racebarchart #animatedbarchart #sportsbarchart #footballdatachart #footballstatisticsvideo
