It was the evening for football awards last night, and it was the return of the Balon D’or trophy.
I personally have mixed feelings about this award and don’t often get too involved in them, I think they are all a bit pretentious and pointless. But I understand the excitement behind them and it’s a major award to win in this sport.

Edouard Mendy was nominated for the Yashin Trophy, which is the goalkeeper’s version of the award, one which he came second in last year. This year he was nominated for it again, but didn’t come inside the top three, getting the fourth spot.
