It was inevitable that Lionel Messi would lead Argentina to victory in the World Cup in what will be the player’s final competition for the country.
At the age of 35, the man who has already won the Ballon d’Or seven times has finally won the prize that was missing from his already impressive collection of honours.
Emiliano Martinez, who plays goalkeeper for Aston Villa, was awarded the Golden Glove.
He shared a three-game winning streak with Jordan Pickford of England and Yassine Bounou of Morocco after keeping three consecutive clean sheets.
Nevertheless, Martinez was the one who won the honour.
