Revealed :Messi sends out confident message to Ronaldo after his undeserving 7th ballon d’or win over him .

 Lionel Messi has admitted he is unsure

 if his record of 7 Ballon d'Or wins will ever 

be matched. The Argentine added that 

the number of awards he has won were 

'impressive'.

On Monday, France Football handed 

out this year's Ballon d'Or, and Lionel Messi 

edged out Robert Lewandowski. The 

PSG star finished ahead in votes, with 

the Bayern Munich star coming in second, 

while Chelsea's Jorginho finished 3rd.

While speaking to the media after the 

Ballon d'Or ceremony, Lionel Messi openly

 admitted that his feat of 7 wins is unlikely

 to be matched. He said in the press 

conference:

"I don't know if the record is beatable

. I just have to accept it but I'm not

 sure if it can be beaten. Seven 

is really impressive."

Cristiano Ronaldo slams Ballon d'Or

 chief for saying that his only 

ambition is to win more awards 

than Lionel Messi

Last week, France Football editor 

Pascal Ferre revealed that Cristiano 

Ronaldo wanted to end his career with 

more Ballon d'Or awards than Lionel Messi. 

However, the Manchester United star 

has rebuffed the claims and blasted the 

Frenchman for using his name for publicity.

Cristiano Ronaldo took to Instagram 

to post:

"Pascal Ferre lied and used 

my name to promote himself and 

to promote the publication that 

he works for. It's unacceptable for

 the person responsible for handing

 out such a prestigious award 

to lie in this way and to show 

disrespect to someone who has

 always respected France Football

 and the Ballon d'Or."

"He lied again today to justify my 

absence from the ceremony 

due to an alleged quarantine that

 has no reason to exist. I always 

congratulate whoever wins, in 

tandem with the sportsmanship 

and fair play that have underpinned

 my career since the start and 

I do that because I'm never against

 anyone. I always win for myself 

and for the clubs that I represent.

 I win for myself and for those who

 love me. I don't win against 

anyone."

Lionel Messi's win has become a debate

 in the world of football, with many of the 

top footballers claiming it should have 

been Robert Lewandowski or Jorginho 

winning the award this year instead of the

 Argentine.
