Viral Claim Says Ronaldo’s 2008 Season Beat Messi’s Best in Fan Ballon d’Or Poll
A viral report claims Cristiano Ronaldo’s 2008 Ballon d’Or-winning campaign was voted the greatest single Ballon d’Or season in a public poll reportedly linked to France Football and UEFA. The report places Lionel Messi’s 2012 season second, followed by Ronaldo’s 2017 campaign. It also lists Messi’s 2023 season fourth and Ronaldo’s 2016 season fifth. Ronaldo scored 42 goals for Manchester United in the 2007/08 season, helping the club win the Premier League and Champions League. However, readers should treat the claimed all-time fan poll and its results with caution unless independently confirmed by the organisers.
