Thanks to a brilliant year that saw him lead Real Madrid to finally win “la decima” Champions League title, Cristiano Ronaldo moments ago won the 2014 FIFA Ballon d’Or. This victory over Bayern Munich’s Manuel Neuer and Barcelona’s Lionel Messi meant Ronaldo, with 37.66% of the votes, won the award for “player of the year” for a second year straight.
