The performances of the France international over the first half of 2016 have matched anyone in the world game, but he doesn't seem to get the credit he deserves
COMMENT
Unless Antoine Griezmann does something utterly extraordinary during Sunday’s Euro 2016 final, he will not win the Ballon d’Or. That honour will, instead, go to Cristiano Ronaldo.
Even before mid-July the race has seemingly been won. The Portuguese has won the annual shootout against Lionel Messi, thanks largely to two penalty kicks. Ronaldo scored his in the final of the Champions League, his Argentine rival squandered his in the Copa America.
