Two days ago, Manchester City’s central midfielder Rodri was surprisingly crowned the winner of the Ballon d'Or, while Vinícius Júnior, who was considered the favorite, finished in second place. In Brazil, there is an explanation for this result.
Details: According to The Telegraph, many Brazilian commentators and experts have claimed that Vinícius Júnior was denied the Ballon d'Or due to racism.
They believe that many journalists who voted and did not rank Vinícius first are still influenced by racial biases.
Earlier reports indicated that Real Madrid attributes Vinícius’s defeat to UEFA, accusing the organization of retaliating against the club for its involvement in the Super League.
Reminder: Today, Karim Benzema stated that Vinícius should have won the Ballon d'Or.
