Winners and nominees

FIFA Ballon d'Or

[edit]
Lionel Messi
Cristiano Ronaldo
Andrés Iniesta

A shortlist of 23 male players was compiled by members of FIFA's Football Committee as well as a group of experts from France Football.[3] It was announced on 29 October 2012.[4][5] There were three voters per FIFA member federation, one journalist and the coaches and captain of the national men's team. Each picked a first (5 points), second (3 points) and third choice (1 point), with their choices made public by FIFA.[6] This was cut to a set of three "finalists" – Lionel Messi, Andrés Iniesta and Cristiano Ronaldo – on 29 November 2012.[7][8]

The odds-on[9] favourite Lionel Messi won the award.[10] Messi won all three FIFA Ballons d'Or since its inception in 2010 and also won both predecessor awards (the Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year) in 2009.
