Chupa Chups offered Vinicius Júnior a unique prize on the back of the defeat

Yesterday’s 2024 Ballon d'Or ceremony ended in a true shocker as the award went not to the anticipated favorite, Vinícius Júnior, but to Manchester City’s midfield maestro Rodri. Social media has been buzzing with reactions to this surprise outcome.

Details: The official Spanish-language account of the iconic brand Chupa Chups on X offered Vinícius a unique consolation prize.

They posted an image of a “Golden Chupa Chups” lollipop, captioned:

“We’ll make a golden one for you, Vinícius. Tonight seems to be a tough one…”

Reminder: Rodri has made history as the first Spanish player in 64 years to receive the Ballon d’Or.
