Ballon d'Or

Matildas star Steph Catley is in the running to win football's biggest award after being nominated for the Ballon d'Or for the first time.

One of the biggest clubs in world football staged an incredible protest at the global game's night of nights as a result of a leaking fiasco.

Caitlin Foord was the toast of women's football on Thursday morning, at the same time Australians were left off the Ballon d'Or nominations.

Steph Catley believes Matildas teammate Sam Kerr deserved to win the Ballon d'Or. She also says another star was snubbed.

Spain and Barcelona star Aitana Bonmati has taken out the women’s Ballon d’Or for the first time, edging Sam Kerr.

For the first time in history, two Australians have made the shortlist for the Ballon d'Or, with Matildas Sam Kerr and Hayley Raso named.

The latest edition of the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo-Lionel Messi rivalry has dropped in a social media dummy spit.

Lionel Messi has won a seventh Ballon d'Or, but a social media meltdown from Cristiano Ronaldo has taken the gloss off the award.

Matildas star Sam Kerr was tipped to make a strong case for her first Ballon d'Or but it wasn't to be.

The prestigious Ballon d'Or will not be awarded this year because the coronavirus pandemic has disrupted world football.
