I Was Surprised When I Saw Messi Coming Up For The Golden Ball – Sepp Blatter

World football governing body , FIFA is
considering changing the voting procedure for the
Golden Ball after the controversy surrounding the
honour of the World Cup’s best player being
awarded to Lionel Messi.
“Shall I be diplomatic or tell you the truth?’’ said
Sepp Blatter, the FIFA president, after being
asked about why the FIFA’s technical study
group voted for a player whose achievements
were comfortably eclipsed by the likes of James
Rodríguez, Thomas Müller and Toni Kroos,
amongst others. “Listen, I was myself a little bit
surprised when I saw Messi coming up for the
Golden Ball,’’ said Blatter.
“But look at the goals scored by Messi in the
different (group-stage) matches. They were
decisive.’’ He added.
The award used to be voted in conjunction with
the media and that may be resumed after the
fall-out from this award. “There was a long
discussion,’’ said a FIFA spokesman. “The
decision was by the technical study group.
Maybe it will change again. Maybe it will not
have so much weight given to the technical
group. We’re open to suggestions. You can make
your own opinion on Messi.’'
