Dembele wins the Ballon d'Or, while Donnarumma wins the Yashin Award.

There was the era of dictators, Messi and Ronaldo, today the Ballon d'Or is a more democratic recognition: Ousmane Dembélé is the fourth different name in the last four years.

Dembélé's opponent was Lamine Yamal, ten years younger, who consoled himself with the award for "Best Young Player." Italy also graced the Parisian red carpet with Gigio Donnarumma , who took home the award for Best Goalkeeper.
