The FIFA Best of the Year awards ceremony took place in Paris. The purpose of the award is to reward outstanding players in individual or team achievements. Who is the best player of 2022? You definitely know him!
That GOAT, a genius, an alien… Lionel Messi received the main prize of the night. You could hear his name often, especially during the World Cup held in Qatar at the end of last year. By the way, Leo was the best there too – he won the coveted cup with the Argentina national team and became the best player of the tournament. Unfortunately, Frenchman Karim Benzema and teammate Kylian Mbappe, who missed the World Cup due to injury, also received the first prize. Recall that in the final Argentina played only against the French, so, most likely, if they still win in the final (but what, what happened next), we were now marching to Mbappe.
The best goalkeeper was Emiliano Martinez (Argentina), and the coach of the year was Lionel Scaloni, who led Messi to the main victory in his professional career. Women players were also given awards. Best female player of the year: Alexia Putellas, best goalkeeper – Mary Earps. Female Coach of the Year Sarina Wigman. Polish football player Marcina Oleksi received the Puskas Award (best goal of the year). He plays among the disabled for the Polish national team.
