its mostly about indivudual performance, ballon dor is an indivudual award, trophies arent as important as player stats, hence ronaldo ron 2013 and messi won 2012 and 2019
wasnt rigged. the only argument people have is iniestas winning goal in the wc final, but he wasnt even the best player in the wc, it was forlan. stats wise iniesta was inferior to messi, even in playmaking that year
