FRANCK RIBERY has claimed he deserved to win the Ballon d'Or instead of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ribery felt aggrieved to miss out on the coveted
trophy after he completed a clean sweep of trophies with Bayern last
season
“I won everything, with the team and individually, Ronaldo won nothing,” the France international said.
“I feel I had earned this award. It's all politics.“
Ribery helped Bayern win the German League and cup double, the Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup in 2013, while Ronaldo's 66 goals in 56 appearances for Madrid failed to win them a single trophy.
Ribery has now turned his back on the award and said: “The Golden Ball doesn't interest me any more.“

Real Madrid star Ronaldo beat off competition
from Barca goal machine Lionel Messi and Bayern Munich midfielder Ribery
to be crowned the world's best player last week.
But an aggrieved Ribery reckons the five titles he won with his all-conquering Bayern side should have seen him beat Ronaldo.
