About two years ago, Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo said goodbye to Real Madrid after spending nine years in the "Santiago Bernabeu", where he won with the royal team everything and became his historical top scorer.
Since that time, the "Don" has not tasted the individual awards, except for the best player in the Italian League 2018-2019 season, but it is a prize that does not compare to what is contained in the "Madeira missile" safes.
Golden Ball: Luka Modric of Croatia won the award in 2018, then Lionel Messi in 2019, who broke up the partnership with him and topped the list of winners of the Golden Ball six times.
"Best" award: As with the Golden Ball, Ronaldo lost the "Best" award, presented by FIFA, to Modric and Messi, respectively, and in 2019 Ronald became third after defeating Dutch defender Virgil Van Dyck.
Golden Boot: Ronaldo won this award with the Royal jersey twice (2013-2014 and 2014-2015). This season, Polish champions Robert Lewandowski lead the race with 29 goals and 58 points, while Ronaldo is fifth with 21 goals and 42 points. It is reported that Messi has won the award in the past three seasons.
Champions League top scorer: Ronaldo beats Messi as the historical goalscorer for the main continental competition, as the "Don" has 128 goals compared to 114 for "Bulga", but the latter crowned the award last season by scoring 12 goals. Before moving to Italy, Ronaldo won the award seven times, six with Real Madrid (including a record 2013-2014 season record of 17 goals) and one with Manchester United.
European Player of the Year award: Ronaldo won the award three times (2014, 2016 and 2017) but Modric and Van Dyck outpaced him in the previous two years after leaving Spain.
Top scorer of the competition: Ronaldo won the LaLiga top scorer award three times, while he failed to win this award in his first season in Calcio, as Sampdoria striker Fabio Quagliarella won by scoring 26 goals against 21 for Ronaldo. This season, Italy's Ciro Imobili tops 27 with Ronaldo 21.
