Cristiano Ronaldo was named FIFA's Best Men's Player for 2016 on Monday, beating Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann on the three-man shortlist to claim the prize in Zurich.
Ronaldo, who picked up his fourth Ballon d'Or in December, also landed the first separate FIFA prize since world football's governing body and France Football announced in September that they would be presenting two separate awards.
FIFA's Best Men's Player award is voted for by each of FIFA's 211 nations comprising the national team captain, manager, a journalist from every FIFA nation, and fans registered on FIFA.
