Lionel Messi picks up Ballon D’or for the year 2009

Lionel Messi have finally been handed the Ballon D’or for the year 2009 and it was an excited and memorable day for Lionel Messi, who flew to France to take the award after showing his superb performance last night against Deportivo at Raizor but even after being tired Leo Messi could not stop smiling :) . It was just Lionel Messi day who was accompanied by his two brothers and sister.

The big moment arrived at 11:00 am when Messi was given the awards during the top TF1 programme ‘Telefoot’ and at the end of the show he took some time to sign autograph and take photographs with audience and his family.

Once the award ceremony was over, Lionel Messi went over to the TF1 central studios where he gave a press conference in front of a multitude of journalists and media representatives. After a few personal interviews, Messi went back to the Hotel for a celebratory lunch with the event organisers.

Messi was then on his way to airport to fly back to Barcelona with Ballon D’or in his hand :)
