I’ve never seen a player that has the streets like Karim Benzema does. I’m seeing videos of hundreds of people marching through streets celebrating his Ballon d’Or like their club won a UCL.

It truly was the “people’s Ballon d’Or.”

The Craziest moment yesterday isn't Benzema winning the Balon D'Or but rather his response to the journalist about a forced rivalry between him and Lewandwski ‼️
"I have no rivalry with Lewandwski, I focus on myself'' 😭😭😭
