With the UEFA individual award ceremony about to take place, the three players being shortlisted for the award are Barcelona’s Lionel Messi and Andres Iniesta; and Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo.
The three players who have been shortlisted for the UEFA player award are http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734 and Andres Iniesta.
All these three players have played a phenomenal part in the Champions League. However, what gives Iniesta and Cristiano Ronaldo the edge over Messi is the fact that they have both played in the Euro 2012 as well.
Messi’s season was phenomenal and even though he could not manage to win the Spanish La Liga, he was still able to help his side win the Copa del Rey and also took his side into the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League.
Individually Messi was above each and every player in the world. The Argentinean maestro has managed to score 73 goals for his club and that means that he has managed to set a record in the history of the game, making him the highest goal scorer in Europe.
On the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 has also managed to impress the football purists around the globe.
The Portuguese skipper won the Spanish La Liga with Real Madrid, and also helped them qualify for the semi-final stage of the UEFA Champions League.
Moreover, Ronaldo was also able to help the Portuguese national team reach the semi-final stage of the Euro 2012.
Third, it’s Andres Iniesta. Even though the Spaniard does not highlight phenomenal stats in terms of goals and assists, he was still a phenomenal player for both, his club and country.
While his club managed to achieve the Copa del Rey trophy only, he helped the Spanish national team win the final of the Euro 2012.
Moreover, Iniesta was also given the award for being the best player throughout the international competition.
Therefore, all these three players deserve to be in the top three to win the prestigious award. However, Cristiano Ronaldo is currently the favourite to land the prestigious honour.
The Portuguese skipper helped Real Madrid win the Spanish La Liga and even though http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 was not expected to qualify from the group of death, Ronaldo still helped them reach the semi-final stage of the tournament.
