Messi Retains FIFA Best Male Player Award
Lionel Messi: Argentine superstar Lionel Messi retained the best FIFA men's player award here on Monday, two months after he claimed the Ballon d'Or.
The 36-year-old was absent from the ceremony held in London, while Pep Guardiola, who coached Messi at Barcelona, showed up to collect the trophy for the men's best coach, reported Xinhua.
The Spaniard steered Manchester City to the Premier League title, the FA Cup and a first Champions League last season. The treble also gave bonuses to many Man City players, as Ederson received the goalkeeper award, and six of the Brazilian's club teammates were named in the men's team of the year.
