Shortly after the 2021 Golden Globes voting closed, the so-called "voting results" circulated on the Internet, and there were two copies in succession. In the previous one, Bayern goalscorer Levan pushed Messi to be elected, but in the second edition, Messi beat Levan by 14 votes. With a month to go until the Golden Globes are announced on November 29, these two "spoilers", which is true or false?

In Levan's "chosen" list, both Mbappe and De Bruyne's names were spelled incorrectly, and Azpilicueta's name appeared twice, making the list look unreliable. Messi's "chosen" list is more obscure, and it seems that the photographer deliberately avoided timidity.
Although both lists looked genuine, the spread was immediate, and the Golden Globes' buzz on social networks rose significantly, so much so that many people wondered if it was deliberately baited by the organizers of French Football magazine. In fact, "French Football" has also had a similar "guard self-detonation" operation before.
It is worth mentioning that the publisher also sent out his accurate "spoilers" before the 2018 selection results were announced, trying to prove that he "really has a way". But that time is only an hour before the answer is revealed, the French Football magazine with voting details has already been printed, and this year it has just finished voting, and even the vote count may not be completed, and the difficulty of "spoilers" is not the same.
While there are indications that "spoilers" are not enough, the prospect of this year's Golden Globe candidates remains a source of concern. The 2020 Ballon d'Or was cancelled, levan suffered a lot, but fortunately the World Footballer of the Year selection was not cancelled, and his Treble and Golden Boot helped him get selected that year. In 2021, although Levan continued to score goals, his Bundesliga title and Club World Cup title were still slightly bleak in the double national team competition year.
In contrast, from the perspective of the whole year, Messi seems to have a better reason to be elected, this year he won the Golden Boot and won the assists king in La Liga seven times, setting a new record for the top five leagues, although he only won one Copa del Rey at Barca, in the Copa America, he led Argentina to break the 28-year championship drought.
Although Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has won the Champions League and the European Cup this year, his personal data in both Chelsea and Italy is not very impressive, and since the start of the new season, Liverpool striker Salah has even surpassed Jorginho with a strong performance - the closer to the voting day, the greater the impact of the player's performance.
In the two "spoilers", Salah overtook Jorginho, but it is not reasonable, which also "helps" Messi to a certain extent, after all, Jorginho surpassed Messi in this year's collective honor level, in the same dimension, he may have been one of Messi's biggest opponents.
In the currently recognized two big favourites Messi and Levan, although Messi's new season is a bit slow in the new owner of the new owner, Paris, Lewan is only based on the advantage of the number of goals, I am afraid it is difficult to erase the gap between Messi and Messi in the level of collective honor.
If Messi does lift the Ballon d'Or for the seventh time, it will definitely not be good news for Ronaldo, who is in a catch-up position and has been crowned five times. Especially now that the two have changed the court respectively, Messi's greater Paris has more obvious upside in the short term than Manchester United, which has a clear bottleneck. It will be more and more difficult for Ronaldo to catch up with Messi in the number of Golden Globe awards.
Recently, Ronaldo recently announced on his insta account that his girlfriend was pregnant with twins, and this post received 27.56 million likes, surpassing the 22.12 million likes of Messi's post announcing his joining Paris Saint-Germain, becoming the most liked content in the history of insta. It is worth mentioning that there are also praise and blessings from Messi's wife, Antonella.
I hope that Messi and Ronaldo, the pair of absolute doubles, can continue to compete in the top field for two more years, and also look forward to salah, Haaland, Mbappe and other new generations can become the new kings of world football faster.
