Breaking: BALLON D’OR 2022 LIVE – CRISTIANO RONALDO FINISHES 20TH AS KARIM BENZEMA AND ALEXIA PUTELLAS EYE…

Manchester United forward, Cristiano Ronaldo, has finished 20th in this year’s Ballon d’Or race.

This was confirmed on Monday by the organizers of the award, France Football.

It is Ronaldo’s worst ranking since he finished 20th in 2005 – level with Jamie Carragher.

The 37-year-old, however, finishes ahead of Harry Kane, who’s 21st.

Ronaldo has won the Ballon d’Or five times already in his career.

He is only behind arch-rival Lionel Messi who has taken home the prize seven times.

The Portugal captain has endured a miserable start to the campaign with United, as he now starts most games from the bench.

He has only scored twice so far, against Sheriff in the Europa League and Everton in the Premier League.
