CNN —My little boy, who is not quite 9, would like to go to a professional football game here in Britain where we live. A 2021 survey found a third of ethnic minority football fans had experienced racism at stadiums, and in England and Wales, race-related hate crimes at matches are on the rise. Clubs whose fans or players commit hate crimes should have points deducted, impacting their position in their league. For national teams, racist behavior by fans or players should result in a tournament ban. While diversity among football players is high, representation off the pitch is shockingly poor at every level.

"(City's) Kevin De Bruyne sees it, Odegaard sees it. But I don't think any other player in the Premier League sees it open up." Having initially signed the midfielder on loan from Real Madrid, the 35 million euros ($37.46 million) Arsenal paid to make his move permanent now looks a steal. Odegaard's transformation has drawn parallels with former club captain Cesc Fabregas, who was tasked with leading the side at the tender age of 21 by ex-manager Arsene Wenger. "He has represented the values of this football club, the team... in the best possible way," Arteta said.

Clasamentul a fost realizat în urma luării în considerare a clasamentelor din fiecare an. Messi s-a clasat pe locul 1 în clasamentul IFFHS în anii 2015, 2016, 2017 şi 2019, iar în 2011, 2014, 2018 şi 2020 s-a clasat al doilea, astfel că victoria este incontestabilă. Este oarecum surprinzător că Ronaldo este abia pe locul 12, mai jos decît Yaya Toure, de exemplu. Alături de Messi, Ronaldo este unul dintre cei mai mari fotbalişti ai lumii! În clasamentul ultimului deceniu, Messi a adunat 174 de puncte, iar Cristiano Ronaldo 54.
