NO ARGUMENT: Cristiano Ronaldo Will Win Ballon d'Or - Carlo Ancelotti

Carlo Ancelotti did not mince his words when giving his opinion of the FIFA president, who said that the World Cup Golden Ball should have gone to Neuer: "It's impossible to shut Blatter up. CR7 will win the Ballon d'Or".

Although the question put to Blatter was a little confusing, as it was unclear if it referred to the Golden Ball that was awarded to Messi for his World Cup performances or to the next winner of the Ballon d'Or for 2014, the Real Madrid manager continued with his argument.


"There's always a lot of talk about the Ballon d'Or, but this year there is nothing to think about. Last year Ribéry and Messi were in the running, but this year, by scoring goals and winning important titles, there is not doubt, Cristiano Ronaldo will win the Ballon d'Or. His words don't make much sense", Ancelotti said.

The starting line up: "Keylor, Carvajal, Varane, Nacho, Arbeloa, James, Khedira, Illarra, Isco, Chicharito and Benzema".
