Atlast the moment arrive for Lionel Messi who won Ballon D’or 2009 for his wonderful performance for the year 2009. Leo Messi have been voted the best player of 2009 by 473 votes and Lionel Messi is also the first Argentine to win Ballon D’or award.

Messi received 473 votes and the other players who were nominated didnt even manage to cross the 300 mark. Lionel Messi beat Cristiano Ronaldo by 240 points, and it shows that no one could be even compare to Lionel Messi performance in which he scored 9 goals in Champions League, 6 goals in Copa Del Rey and 23 goals in Spanish League.

Nobody have ever received so much votes since the French magazine opened the award to cover all domestic leagues three year ago. In 2007, Kaka received 444 votes and last year Cristiano Ronaldo received 446 votes. Lionel Messi is also the first player from Barcelona youth system to win Ballon D’Or.

Strange thing is Leo was third in 2007, second in 2008 and first in 2009 and I hope he continue to be in the top position for the rest of his life :D and same is going to be the case in FIFA Player of the year awards :)
