Ballon d'Or Social Media admin confused Man City's Ruben Dias with teammate Rodri

An unexpected blunder made by those in charge of distributing the Ballon d'Or award. France Football magazine announced during a ceremony held yesterday evening, Monday, in Paris, the crowning of Manchester City and Spain national team star Rodri with the Ballon d'Or/Golden Ball Award for the best football player in the world for the year 2024. Spanish media highlighted the Ballon d'Or calculation error, which was published by the Spanish TV programme "Chiringuito" with the comment: "They will give him (Rodri) the Ballon d'Or, and they do not know who he is?"
