Daniel Regha Slams Rodri’s Ballon d’Or Win
In a scathing criticism, Nigerian online critic Daniel Regha has spoken out against Rodri’s recent win of the prestigious Ballon d’Or award. The award was presented to the Spanish midfielder on October 29, with many considering it a surprise outcome given the incredible achievements of other footballers, particularly Vinicius Junior from Real Madrid, who won both La Liga and the Champions League.
Rodri’s win came after helping Manchester City secure their fourth consecutive Premier League title and winning Euro 2024. Many fans were left perplexed by the choice, with Daniel Regha being one of the most vocal critics. He took to social media to express his disappointment, stating that Rodri did not deserve the award.
“The fact is, Rodri wasn’t even nominated for the Premier League Player of the Season, and he wasn’t recognized as the best midfielder in Spain,” said Daniel Regha. “He didn’t deserve this award.”
He also compared the Ballon d’Or to the Grammys, saying they share a similar tone. “Ballon d’Or… [ waves emoji]…familiar vibes,” he tweeted.
Daniel Regha’s social media post rattled the internet, with many weighing in on the debate. Some argued that Rodri’s impact on Manchester City’s success, particularly in the Champions League, made his win justified, while others claimed that consistency in domestic leagues should be prioritized.
The online discussion surrounding the Ballon d’Or win has sparked a heated debate, with fans, football pundits, and players all sharing their opinions on the award.
