  1. 0:01Mbappé refused to applaud Harry Kane
  2. 0:03in front of everyone with the cameras
  3. 0:05pointed at him. And what happened
  4. 0:08afterwards in the corridors of the
  5. 0:10London Palladium, according to those
  6. 0:11around him, is the biggest controversy
  7. 0:13in the history of the Ballon d'Or.
  8. 0:15Because Mbappé didn't go back to his
  9. 0:17hotel quietly; he sought out the France
  10. 0:19Football people and dropped a line that
  11. 0:21is already circulating all over Paris
  12. 0:23tonight. I didn't come here to leave
  13. 0:25with nothing. That’s what he said
  14. 0:28right to the faces of the award
  15. 0:29organizers. But before we get into the
  16. 0:31mud, there is one thing that must be
  17. 0:33said. Congratulations to Spanish
  18. 0:35football, because tonight in London,
  19. 0:37Spain has won everything. Best women's
  20. 0:40club, Barça. Best young player, Lamine
  21. 0:43. Best young female player, Vicky
  22. 0:45LĂłpez. Best coach, Luis de la Fuente.
  23. 0:48Best women's football coach, Pérez
  24. 0:50Romeu. Best goalkeeper, Unai SimĂłn.
  25. 0:53Best female goalkeeper, Cata Coll.
  26. 0:55Everything, absolutely everything,
  27. 0:57except for the Ballon d'Or. So
  28. 0:59congratulations to Spanish football,
  29. 1:01because there is plenty more to come.
  30. 1:03And now, let’s get to the scandal.
  31. 1:06What else did Mbappé say to the France
  32. 1:08Football crew? What is being talked
  33. 1:10about tonight in the Madrid luxury box?
  34. 1:12And how is it possible that a player
  35. 1:14without a single title finished ahead
  36. 1:16of Lamine? Stay until the end because
  37. 1:18the fact about the runner-up will leave
  38. 1:20you speechless. If you're a Culé and
  39. 1:23your blood is boiling tonight, hit the
  40. 1:24like button and subscribe. Let’s go.
  41. 1:28A gala that started 45 minutes late
  42. 1:30with the UEFA president, Ceferin,
  43. 1:32sitting in the stalls. Yes, the same
  44. 1:36Ceferin with whom Madrid has made peace
  45. 1:38after the Super League. Pay attention
  46. 1:40to that detail because later Ronaldo
  47. 1:43Nazario comes back up on stage. The man
  48. 1:45who held the record for the youngest
  49. 1:47Ballon d'Or winner in history. The
  50. 1:49record that Lamine could have broken
  51. 1:51tonight. He opens the envelope. Silence
  52. 1:54in the theater and he reads the name.
  53. 1:56Harry Kane. Kane. The Englishman from
  54. 1:58Bayern. Winner of the 2026 Ballon d'Or,
  55. 2:01and the full ranking, which is where
  56. 2:03the real controversy is. First, Kane.
  57. 2:06Second, Kylian Mbappé. Third, Lamine.
  58. 2:10Fourth, Rodri. Fifth, Messi. Sixth,
  59. 2:13Kvaratskhelia. Seventh, Dembélé.
  60. 2:16Eighth, Haaland. Ninth, Olise. Tenth,
  61. 2:20Fabián Ruiz. And Cubarsí, the best
  62. 2:22center-back of the World Cup, the best
  63. 2:24center-back of the season, outside the
  64. 2:26top 10. And take a look at some of the
  65. 2:29names on that list. Rodri, the same
  66. 2:31Rodri who won the Ballon d'Or over
  67. 2:33Vinicius 2 years ago and triggered
  68. 2:36Madrid's boycott. Tonight, the best
  69. 2:39player of the World Cup, a world
  70. 2:40champion, finished behind Mbappé, and
  71. 2:42Fabián, a European and world champion,
  72. 2:44finished tenth. But keep one number in
  73. 2:47mind, two: Mbappé, second, ahead of
  74. 2:50Lamine. We will get to that in a moment
  75. 2:53, but first, there is an image that has
  76. 2:55already gone around the world tonight.
  77. 2:57Kane, emotional, goes up to collect the
  78. 2:59trophy. The entire theater stands up.
  79. 3:03Applause everywhere, and the camera
  80. 3:05focuses on Mbappé sitting, still,
  81. 3:08hands motionless, not clapping, not a
  82. 3:11gesture, not a smile, nor applause for
  83. 3:14the winner. The images went viral in
  84. 3:17minutes. Mbappé refuses to applaud
  85. 3:20Harry Kane. That is how media around
  86. 3:22the world headlined it. And it wasn't
  87. 3:24just any moment. While Kane hugged his
  88. 3:27family, who had come with him en masse,
  89. 3:29a whole legion of people, Mbappé kept
  90. 3:31his gaze straight ahead. In the same
  91. 3:35audience were Cucurella, Diomandé, and
  92. 3:37Lamine, sitting right next to Kane,
  93. 3:39applauding with a broken look on his
  94. 3:41face, but applauding. And Ceferin, a
  95. 3:45few meters away, witnessing the scene.
  96. 3:48The UEFA president, with whom Madrid
  97. 3:49had just mended relations, watching the
  98. 3:52white star refuse to applaud. That is
  99. 3:54the difference. The kid who had just
  100. 3:56lost applauded. The one who thought he
  101. 3:58was the winner did not. And look at the
  102. 4:01contrast, because hours earlier on the
  103. 4:02red carpet, Kane had spoken about his
  104. 4:04great rival tonight. And it wasn't
  105. 4:07Mbappé, it was Lamine. Lamine is an
  106. 4:09incredible player. What he does at that
  107. 4:12age is truly incredible. When I was his
  108. 4:14age, I was on loan at different clubs.
  109. 4:17That is a winner, a guy who praises his
  110. 4:20rival, and in the other seat, Mbappé
  111. 4:22not applauding. But why so much anger,
  112. 4:25what was Mbappé expecting tonight? To
  113. 4:28understand it, we have to go back to
  114. 4:29this very afternoon. Do you remember
  115. 4:31the video from DAZN that we told you
  116. 4:32about a few hours ago? Mbappé with his
  117. 4:34friend, the comedian Redouane
  118. 4:36Bougheraba. You'll have it tomorrow.
  119. 4:38And Mbappé nodding his head. And
  120. 4:40Konaté, his teammate at Madrid, you've
  121. 4:42won it. And Mbappé saying yes to him.
  122. 4:45And mind you, because France Football
  123. 4:47has been saying since 2024 that they
  124. 4:49notify no one before the gala, that no
  125. 4:51one knows anything, that everything is
  126. 4:54revealed live; even Laporta said it on
  127. 4:56the red carpet. We try to know
  128. 4:58everything, but we don't know anything,
  129. 5:00they are very hermetic. So, if no one
  130. 5:04knew anything, why was Mbappé going
  131. 5:05around saying he took it for granted in
  132. 5:07front of the cameras, in front of his
  133. 5:09friends, in front of his locker room?
  134. 5:12And then at the gala, the envelope says
  135. 5:14Kane; imagine the look on his face. And
  136. 5:17there is a question here that no one is
  137. 5:19asking. What if someone really told him
  138. 5:21he was winning, if someone on the
  139. 5:22inside tipped him off? And then the
  140. 5:24envelope said something else; the
  141. 5:26scandal is no longer about Mbappé,
  142. 5:27it’s about the organization. And that
  143. 5:30would explain the anger in the hallways
  144. 5:32. Either someone told him something
  145. 5:34that didn't happen, or he believed it
  146. 5:36on his own. Both options are a
  147. 5:38historical embarrassment. And there’s
  148. 5:40more, because this wasn't just any gala
  149. 5:42for Madrid. Two years of boycotting. In
  150. 5:442024, the snub in Paris because
  151. 5:46Vinicius didn't win. In 2025, absent
  152. 5:50once again. And this year, according to
  153. 5:53journalist Félix Díaz, Madrid ended
  154. 5:55the boycott because their relationship
  155. 5:57with UEFA has improved after the Super
  156. 5:59League war. Green light for Mbappé to
  157. 6:01London with Cucurella and Diomandé.
  158. 6:04Red carpet, autographs, photos. And for
  159. 6:07what? To sit and watch Barça and Spain
  160. 6:10collect award after award and see the
  161. 6:12big one go to an Englishman from Bayern
  162. 6:15. A fan summed it up perfectly, and
  163. 6:18half the world shares it tonight.
  164. 6:20Mbappé only traveled to London to
  165. 6:22watch Barça win six trophies and lose
  166. 6:25the Ballon d'Or. And for someone like
  167. 6:28Mbappé, that is unbearable. And there
  168. 6:30is an irony that will sting in France.
  169. 6:33The award is organized by a French
  170. 6:35magazine. It was presented by Thierry
  171. 6:36Henry, who is French. And yet, even his
  172. 6:38own people didn't give it to him. When
  173. 6:41not even your own country gives you the
  174. 6:43award, maybe the problem isn't the
  175. 6:44award. That’s why, when the gala
  176. 6:46ended, he didn't leave in silence. And
  177. 6:48here comes the most intense part of the
  178. 6:50night. According to his inner circle,
  179. 6:53Mbappé sought out people from France
  180. 6:54Football in the theater hallways, away
  181. 6:56from the cameras, and exploded. I
  182. 6:59didn't come here to leave with nothing.
  183. 7:01That was his first sentence, and he
  184. 7:03continued, according to those same
  185. 7:05sources, "The Kopa for Lamine, the
  186. 7:07Ballon d'Or and the Gerd MĂĽller for
  187. 7:09Kane." And what about me? Disfiguring.
  188. 7:12Disfiguring. That’s how it felt.
  189. 7:14Sitting in the seat watching others go
  190. 7:17up on stage, and they say he didn't say
  191. 7:19it in a low voice. Several people from
  192. 7:22the organization heard him, and someone
  193. 7:24from his team had to take him away so
  194. 7:26things wouldn't escalate. And the
  195. 7:29phrase that stung the organizers the
  196. 7:30most: "I could have stayed at home."
  197. 7:33Like Vinicius did. And afterwards,
  198. 7:35according to those same sources, he
  199. 7:37left the theater without stopping for
  200. 7:39anyone, not even the French press
  201. 7:41waiting for him, or his national team
  202. 7:43teammates who were at the gala.
  203. 7:45Straight to the exit, head down,
  204. 7:47without looking back, just like
  205. 7:49Vinicius did. Do you realize what that
  206. 7:52means? Mbappé admitting that the gala
  207. 7:54only interests him if he wins. Exactly
  208. 7:56the same thing Madrid thought in 2024.
  209. 7:59If I don't win, I'm not going. And if I
  210. 8:02go and don't win, I complain. And this
  211. 8:04is nothing new. In 2018, Mbappé won
  212. 8:07the World Cup at 19, and the Ballon
  213. 8:09d'Or was given to Modric, who had lost
  214. 8:12that final against him. In France, they
  215. 8:15talked about a robbery for months, but
  216. 8:178 years later, Mbappé has discovered
  217. 8:20what a world champion feels like when
  218. 8:22they are passed over. Only this time,
  219. 8:25the world champion was Lamine, and he
  220. 8:28was the one being passed over. And
  221. 8:30watch out, because there is a fact that
  222. 8:32explains so much anger, one that hurts
  223. 8:34a lot in France. Kylian Mbappé has
  224. 8:36been nominated for the Ballon d'Or nine
  225. 8:38times. 2017, '18, '19, 2021, '22, '23,
  226. 8:43'24, '25, and '26, and with the
  227. 8:46teammate he told this afternoon that he
  228. 8:50had indeed won it. As the story goes,
  229. 8:54on the bus back to the hotel, no one
  230. 8:56dared to bring up the subject. Not a
  231. 8:58word from the Real Madrid expedition.
  232. 9:00Nine times. And how many has he won?
  233. 9:03None. His best position in his entire
  234. 9:05career is this one. Second, tonight,
  235. 9:08nine attempts. Not even one. And this
  236. 9:11year, with his return to Madrid, with
  237. 9:13the cameras catching him, taking it for
  238. 9:15granted, nothing either. On social
  239. 9:17media, it's already being called
  240. 9:19Mbappé's "nothing-plete": no Ballon
  241. 9:21d'Or, no individual awards, and no team
  242. 9:23titles. Nothing, a clean sweep of
  243. 9:25nothing. And look at the detail
  244. 9:27regarding the Kopa Trophy. Among the
  245. 9:29nominees was GĂĽler from Madrid, the
  246. 9:31kid Madrid paid a fortune for. Who took
  247. 9:34it? Lamine. Another one for Barça in
  248. 9:37front of the Real Madrid expedition.
  249. 9:39And the memes didn't take long. Edits
  250. 9:41are already circulating on social media
  251. 9:43of Mbappé nodding his head in the
  252. 9:45video from the ceremony. "Do you have
  253. 9:48it for tomorrow?" Yes, the return
  254. 9:50ticket. Meanwhile, Lamine takes the
  255. 9:53Kopa, Kane takes the Ballon d'Or and
  256. 9:55the Gerd Müller Trophy, and Mbappé
  257. 9:57takes the trip to London. By the way, I
  258. 10:00was commenting on the gala live on
  259. 10:02Twitter all night. If you want to
  260. 10:04follow the reactions as they come in,
  261. 10:06there is a link in the description,
  262. 10:08because Mbappe's outburst isn't the
  263. 10:09only thing that happened in the halls
  264. 10:11of the Palladium. In the Madrid
  265. 10:13executive box, things are even worse.
  266. 10:16According to club sources, in
  267. 10:17Florentino's circle, there was talk
  268. 10:19tonight of one very clear thing: never
  269. 10:21coming back. That is the feeling
  270. 10:24permeating the Madrid expedition after
  271. 10:26the gala. Remember what happened in
  272. 10:292024. Vinicius, that same night on
  273. 10:32social media: I'll do it 10 times if I
  274. 10:34have to, they aren't ready. And
  275. 10:36Florentino, days later, speaking of an
  276. 10:39award that didn't respect Madrid,
  277. 10:41casting doubt on the voting. Think
  278. 10:44about what that means for Florentino.
  279. 10:47Two years saying this award doesn't
  280. 10:49respect Madrid, that the voting isn't
  281. 10:51serious, and the year he decides to
  282. 10:53return, fixes relations with UEFA, and
  283. 10:55sends his star with the green light, he
  284. 10:57leaves empty-handed while Barça
  285. 10:59celebrates award after award two rows
  286. 11:01away. And there is a phrase from
  287. 11:04tonight that seems written for Mbappe.
  288. 11:06Luis de la Fuente said it when
  289. 11:08accepting the award for best coach.
  290. 11:09Individual success makes us visible,
  291. 11:12but the collective makes us invincible.
  292. 11:15A manager who has won it all with the
  293. 11:17collective—Nations League, Euro, and
  294. 11:19World Cup—the best thing that has
  295. 11:21happened to the national team in its
  296. 11:23106-year history, compared to a player
  297. 11:25who only thinks individually and leaves
  298. 11:27with nothing. And not just because of
  299. 11:30Mbappe, the club itself also got a dose
  300. 11:33of reality. Best women's club, Barça.
  301. 11:36Best young player, Lamine. Best
  302. 11:38goalkeeper, Unai SimĂłn ahead of
  303. 11:40Courtois, who was nominated. Madrid
  304. 11:43shut out of every award of the night.
  305. 11:45And let's not forget the year their
  306. 11:47star has had off the pitch. In May,
  307. 11:49while injured, Mbappe went on a trip
  308. 11:51with his girlfriend Ester ExpĂłsito
  309. 11:53through Sardinia, Italy, and Paris.
  310. 11:56While with Madrid. With the season on
  311. 11:58the line, the club itself complained
  312. 12:00that the trips had been practically
  313. 12:02broadcast live, and there was a
  314. 12:04petition from Madrid fans calling for
  315. 12:06his exit. Six months later, the club
  316. 12:09sends him to London to get the Ballon
  317. 12:12d'Or and he returns empty-handed. For
  318. 12:15Madrid, tonight isn't a defeat; it's a
  319. 12:17humiliation. And someone in that box,
  320. 12:19they say, put it this way. Two years
  321. 12:22ago, we left before going in. This time
  322. 12:24, they made us go in just to laugh at
  323. 12:26us. The boycott is back; everything
  324. 12:28points to yes, and next year there will
  325. 12:31be empty seats at the gala once again.
  326. 12:34But let me tell you one thing, this
  327. 12:36isn't France Football's fault, this is
  328. 12:37the campaign's fault, because Mbappé
  329. 12:39and his camp pulled off the most
  330. 12:41shameless campaign in the history of
  331. 12:42the award. Videos, messages, the return
  332. 12:45to Madrid, the 100th goal in the
  333. 12:47Clásico sold as the definitive proof,
  334. 12:50only to end up swallowing the biggest
  335. 12:52humiliation of the night live with the
  336. 12:54whole world watching. If you're
  337. 12:56enjoying this video, hit the hype
  338. 12:58button next to the like, it's free and
  339. 13:01helps this reach many more culés
  340. 13:03tonight. And get ready, because it's
  341. 13:05time to speak with data, and data
  342. 13:07doesn't wear a jersey. And now for what
  343. 13:10is truly a scandal, because Mbappé not
  344. 13:13winning is normal. What makes no sense
  345. 13:15at all is that he finished second.
  346. 13:17Let's see what Mbappé has done this
  347. 13:19year, and we'll look at it with the
  348. 13:21data that Luis GarcĂ­a provided on Cope
  349. 13:22, who is one of those who explains it
  350. 13:24best. La Liga. Mbappé, Pichichi with
  351. 13:2725 goals. Sounds very good, doesn't it?
  352. 13:30Well, to give you an idea, Dani GĂĽiza
  353. 13:33won a Pichichi with Mallorca with 27.
  354. 13:36Mbappé was Pichichi with fewer goals
  355. 13:38than GĂĽiza. And now the important part
  356. 13:40: when did he score those goals?
  357. 13:42Because as Luis GarcĂ­a says, a goal in
  358. 13:44August isn't worth the same as a goal
  359. 13:46in May. In the second half of the
  360. 13:48season, when the league was on the line
  361. 13:50, Mbappé scored six goals, six, and
  362. 13:52the seventh on the last matchday with
  363. 13:54the league already won by Barça. Six
  364. 13:56goals when it mattered, and the league
  365. 13:59for Barça. Let's move on to the
  366. 14:01Champions League. Mbappé, 15 goals.
  367. 14:03Record for the season. Sounds even
  368. 14:06better. Against whom? Four against
  369. 14:08Olympiacos, three against Kairat, [
  370. 14:09against] Almaty, two against Marseille.
  371. 14:12Two against Benfica and two against
  372. 14:13Monaco. 13 out of the 15 in the league
  373. 14:16phase, and against Liverpool zero,
  374. 14:18against City zero. Against Juve zero,
  375. 14:21and in the knockout stages against
  376. 14:23Benfica, nothing. Against City, nothing
  377. 14:25. And against Bayern, two goals. And
  378. 14:28eliminated, do you know who eliminated
  379. 14:30him? Harry Kane, two goals and an
  380. 14:33assist in that knockout tie. Madrid
  381. 14:35lost both matches. Kane's goals in the
  382. 14:38Champions League were in the knockout
  383. 14:40stages. Atalanta, Real Madrid, PSG, the
  384. 14:42matches that decide something. And now
  385. 14:45the World Cup. Mbappé, 10 goals,
  386. 14:47Golden Boot. Sounds like a Ballon d'Or,
  387. 14:49right? Well, two of those 10 goals were
  388. 14:53scored in the third-place match with
  389. 14:55England winning 4-0, and with Kane,
  390. 14:56Bellingham, and Dembélé resting on
  391. 14:58the bench. Take those two away, and
  392. 15:01eight remain. Kane scored six, and his
  393. 15:04national team finished ahead of
  394. 15:06Mbappé’s. And in the semifinal, the
  395. 15:09match that really mattered, France lost
  396. 15:11to Spain 2-0 against Lamine. And in the
  397. 15:14league, if we compare him to Lamine,
  398. 15:17things become even clearer. Mbappé, 25
  399. 15:20goals and five assists, 30 goal
  400. 15:22contributions. Lamine, 16 goals and 11
  401. 15:26assists. 27, and Mbappé played three
  402. 15:30more games. A technical draw, as Luis
  403. 15:32GarcĂ­a says. With one difference,
  404. 15:34Lamine won La Liga and the Spanish
  405. 15:37Super Cup and was named the league's
  406. 15:39best player. And now the comparison,
  407. 15:42what hurts the most? Because there is a
  408. 15:44player in that ranking who had a better
  409. 15:46season than Mbappé and is in eighth
  410. 15:48place. Erling Haaland, 74 goals, only
  411. 15:52six from penalties, 11 assists, two
  412. 15:55titles; Mbappé 71 goals, 17 from
  413. 15:58penalties, 16 assists, zero titles, 17
  414. 16:01penalties. Take them away and Mbappé's
  415. 16:05season falls apart, while Haaland, with
  416. 16:07more goals, fewer penalties, and two
  417. 16:09titles, is eighth. And now the question
  418. 16:11that has been driving me crazy since
  419. 16:13the ranking came out. Neither the first
  420. 16:14nor the second place in this Ballon
  421. 16:16d'Or won the Champions League or the
  422. 16:19World Cup, neither of them. And who
  423. 16:21finished behind Mbappé? Lamine, World
  424. 16:24Cup champion, league champion, and best
  425. 16:26player in the league. Rodri, World Cup
  426. 16:28champion and best player of the World
  427. 16:30Cup. Kvaratskhelia, European champion
  428. 16:32and best player of the Champions League
  429. 16:35. Dembélé, European champion, and
  430. 16:37Fabián Ruiz, European champion and
  431. 16:39World Cup champion. Both things. 15
  432. 16:42players with major titles, five players
  433. 16:44who were the best in their competition,
  434. 16:47and all behind a player with zero
  435. 16:49titles. The best in the Champions
  436. 16:51League, Kvaratskhelia. The best in the
  437. 16:54league, Lamine. The best of the World
  438. 16:56Cup, Rodri. And the runner-up for the
  439. 16:58Ballon d'Or, someone who wasn't the
  440. 16:59best at anything. And then they tell
  441. 17:01you that players like Bellingham or
  442. 17:03Vinicius are on the list because of the
  443. 17:05World Cup they had. So, does the World
  444. 17:08Cup count or not? Imagine you are
  445. 17:10Kvaratskhelia. You win the Champions
  446. 17:13League, you are chosen as the best
  447. 17:15player in the most important
  448. 17:16competition in the world, and you
  449. 17:17finish sixth behind someone who fell in
  450. 17:19the quarterfinals. Imagine you are
  451. 17:21Fabián, you win the Champions League
  452. 17:23and the World Cup in the same year.
  453. 17:25Both things, and you finish tenth. What
  454. 17:27do you even make of this award?
  455. 17:29Honestly, I don't know. It has lost all
  456. 17:32credibility. And here is the great
  457. 17:34contradiction of the night. France
  458. 17:36Football got the first one right, but
  459. 17:38failed miserably with the second. And
  460. 17:41when an award gets it right at the top
  461. 17:43and goes wrong like this, just below,
  462. 17:45the question is inevitable. What
  463. 17:47carries more weight in those votes?
  464. 17:49Football or the name? Now, let's be
  465. 17:52very clear, he does deserve it. Quite
  466. 17:54the opposite. And don't forget
  467. 17:56something, Kane spent his entire career
  468. 17:59without winning a single title. Years
  469. 18:01at Tottenham, lost finals, the eternal
  470. 18:04runner-up. And at Bayern, he finally
  471. 18:07started lifting trophies. And tonight,
  472. 18:09the greatest of them all. Kane had a
  473. 18:12year from another planet: 72 goals. He
  474. 18:15said it himself on the red carpet.
  475. 18:17Scoring 72 goals is a very good season.
  476. 18:20Bundesliga, German Cup with three goals
  477. 18:23in the 0-3 final, German Supercup
  478. 18:25scoring in the final, and the Gerd
  479. 18:27MĂĽller Trophy for top scorer. He
  480. 18:30eliminated Madrid in the Champions
  481. 18:32League, was one step away from the
  482. 18:34final against PSG, and in the World Cup
  483. 18:36, reached the semifinals and third
  484. 18:37place with England. And Kane left
  485. 18:39another quote on the red carpet that
  486. 18:41says a lot about him. Being in that
  487. 18:43group where Messi is, is a privilege;
  488. 18:45it is very special for me. Not a word
  489. 18:48too many, no campaign, no video taking
  490. 18:51it for granted, and he won it; an
  491. 18:53English journalist summarized it
  492. 18:55tonight. He is incredible and seems
  493. 18:58like a good guy. He missed one of the
  494. 19:00big titles, but it doesn't bother
  495. 19:02anyone that he won it, far from it. And
  496. 19:04another one even clearer: thank
  497. 19:06goodness Kane won it. Football was
  498. 19:09about to die. Because if the envelope
  499. 19:11had said Mbappé tonight, then we would
  500. 19:13have been talking about the biggest
  501. 19:14robbery in history. And he won it in a
  502. 19:17very tough week for him, his coach at
  503. 19:19Bayern, Vincent Kompany, hospitalized
  504. 19:21after collapsing due to a virus. From
  505. 19:23the gala stage, they wished him a
  506. 19:25speedy recovery. Kane, with his coach
  507. 19:28in the hospital, lifting the Ballon
  508. 19:29d'Or. Mbappé with everything in his
  509. 19:31favor, not applauding. And if we put
  510. 19:33Kane and Mbappé side by side, there is
  511. 19:36no room for argument. Goals: Kane 72,
  512. 19:40Mbappé 71 with 17 penalties. Titles:
  513. 19:44Kane 3, Mbappé 0. Goals in Champions
  514. 19:48League knockout stages: Kane 6, Mbappé
  515. 19:502. Direct knockout between the two:
  516. 19:53Kane wins. World Cup: England ahead of
  517. 19:56France. Kane had the best numbers and
  518. 19:59won titles while making his teammates
  519. 20:01better. Little left to say.
  520. 20:03Congratulations, Harry, but there's a
  521. 20:05kid tonight that I can't get out of my
  522. 20:07head. Lamine. When Ronaldo Nazario read
  523. 20:10out Kanan's name, the camera focused on
  524. 20:12Lamine and he looked broken, truly hurt
  525. 20:15, with his eyes glistening. The second
  526. 20:17year in a row that he misses out on the
  527. 20:19Big Award. Last year, second behind
  528. 20:22Dembé. This year third, behind a
  529. 20:25player with no titles. Remember his
  530. 20:28year. 12 wins in 12 games as a starter
  531. 20:30in major tournaments. World champion,
  532. 20:33being Spain's star at 19 years old.
  533. 20:36League champion, best player in the
  534. 20:38league, and yet third behind a player
  535. 20:40who won nothing and was there with all
  536. 20:43his people. His father was the first to
  537. 20:45get out of the van upon arriving at the
  538. 20:47theater. His mother, his little brother
  539. 20:50, his partner Inés García, the whole
  540. 20:52family in London excited, and the 19-
  541. 20:54year-old kid taking the blow in front
  542. 20:56of everyone. And yet, look at what this
  543. 21:0019-year-old kid did. When he went up to
  544. 21:03collect the trophy, Henry asked him if
  545. 21:05that was the award he wanted tonight
  546. 21:07and Lamine said this. I think this
  547. 21:09award should have been for Pau CubarsĂ­
  548. 21:11. I think he deserved it more. And he
  549. 21:13continued. I must keep working to
  550. 21:15achieve individual titles. And that is
  551. 21:18not just any phrase. CubarsĂ­ finished
  552. 21:20twelfth. The best center-back of the
  553. 21:22World Cup, the one who broke Maldini's
  554. 21:24record for clean sheets. Out of the top
  555. 21:2610. Lamine. Instead of looking out for
  556. 21:29himself, he looks out for his teammate.
  557. 21:31He tells the whole world that that kid
  558. 21:33deserved more. A kid who could have
  559. 21:36been sulking all night, gifting his
  560. 21:38award to his teammate in front of
  561. 21:40everyone. That is class, the kind that
  562. 21:43someone else lacked tonight. And he
  563. 21:45wasn't the only one who saw him as the
  564. 21:46champion. The president of the
  565. 21:48Federation, Rafael Louzán, had said it
  566. 21:50hours earlier on the red carpet. Lamine
  567. 21:53should win this Ballon d'Or. And he
  568. 21:55added from the gala. He made it clear.
  569. 21:58We have to face it with sportsmanship.
  570. 22:00I know that Lamine was especially
  571. 22:02looking forward to it. Think about what
  572. 22:05slipped through his fingers tonight. At
  573. 22:0819 years and 105 days, he would have
  574. 22:10been the youngest Ballon d'Or winner in
  575. 22:12history, ahead of Ronaldo Nazario, who
  576. 22:14won it at 21, and ahead of Messi, who
  577. 22:16won it at 22. And it was precisely
  578. 22:19Ronaldo Nazario who opened the envelope
  579. 22:21, the owner of the record in front of
  580. 22:23the kid who could have taken it from
  581. 22:25him. And I'm going to tell you one
  582. 22:27thing that many Culés are thinking
  583. 22:28tonight. For me, Lamine was ahead of
  584. 22:31Kane. He wasn't the top scorer, agreed.
  585. 22:35But he is the most complete player in
  586. 22:37the world, the one who creates most,
  587. 22:38assists most, breaks games open most,
  588. 22:40and his titles are worth more. A World
  589. 22:43Cup, man. A World Cup as a starter and
  590. 22:46as the star. Kane doesn't have that.
  591. 22:48Nobody who finished ahead of him has
  592. 22:51that. When a match heats up, you want
  593. 22:53to see Lamine, you don't want to see
  594. 22:55Mbappé, that's the magic of soccer.
  595. 22:57And tonight that wasn't rewarded. But,
  596. 23:00you know what I'll tell you? This is
  597. 23:02more fuel for Lamine. A kid like that,
  598. 23:04with tonight's anger, with what he saw
  599. 23:06in that theater, he’s going to lift
  600. 23:09it up and we’ll be there to see it.
  601. 23:11He has time, plenty of it. And one more
  602. 23:14thing, Messi, fifth at 39 years old.
  603. 23:16After a World Cup with 12 goal
  604. 23:18contributions and a few days after
  605. 23:20receiving the Princess of Asturias
  606. 23:22Award remembering his father. And look,
  607. 23:25this summer they crossed paths in the
  608. 23:27World Cup final, Spain against
  609. 23:29Argentina, and the baby from the photo
  610. 23:31won, 1-0 in extra time. 19 years ago,
  611. 23:35he took a photo with a baby in his arms
  612. 23:37for a charity calendar. That baby was
  613. 23:40Lamine. Tonight, both were in the same
  614. 23:43top five of the Ballon d'Or. And for
  615. 23:45Barça, the week has been very tough.
  616. 23:48Paris, the Clásico, and now this. But
  617. 23:50as Laporta said, we’re still first,
  618. 23:53the expectations are intact. We will
  619. 23:55learn from our mistakes, and let no one
  620. 23:58forget who did live up to the moment
  621. 24:00tonight. Unai SimĂłn, best goalkeeper
  622. 24:03in the world, ahead of Courtois, who
  623. 24:05was nominated, and Aitana, best female
  624. 24:07player, saying it was a privilege to
  625. 24:09share the trophy with a Spaniard. Vicky
  626. 24:12LĂłpez moved, dedicating the award to
  627. 24:14her mother who is no longer with us.
  628. 24:17Spain won it all tonight with humility,
  629. 24:19and the only one leaving London fuming
  630. 24:21is the one who came for everything. And
  631. 24:23for Madrid, the lesson tonight is clear
  632. 24:26. You can fix relations with UEFA, you
  633. 24:28can return to the gala, you can send
  634. 24:30your star on a red carpet. But the
  635. 24:33Ballon d'Or, at least this time, wasn't
  636. 24:35won in an office. It was taken by the
  637. 24:37one who scored the most goals and won
  638. 24:38the most titles. And for Madrid, that
  639. 24:40has been worse than any boycott.
  640. 24:43Mbappé will have more opportunities,
  641. 24:45but tonight he left London with the
  642. 24:47worst image of his career, that of the
  643. 24:49player who doesn't applaud. So let's
  644. 24:52close the circle. What did Mbappé do?
  645. 24:55First, he didn't applaud Kane in front
  646. 24:57of the cameras; later, according to his
  647. 24:59camp, he lashed out at France Football.
  648. 25:02I didn't come here to leave with
  649. 25:03nothing. I could have stayed home like
  650. 25:05Vinicius. And Madrid, in Florentino's
  651. 25:08circle, is talking about never coming
  652. 25:10back. The boycott again, and the
  653. 25:13scandal of a player with no titles, who
  654. 25:15wasn't the best in any competition,
  655. 25:17finishing second ahead of Lamine, Rodri
  656. 25:19, Kvaratskhelia, Dembélé, and Fabián
  657. 25:21. And Lamine, third with the World Cup
  658. 25:25and the league in his bag, saying in
  659. 25:27front of everyone that his trophy was
  660. 25:28for a teammate. That also happened
  661. 25:31tonight, and you won't see that in any
  662. 25:33Madrid recap. Kane, deserved. Mbappé
  663. 25:37second, a disgrace. And the camera,
  664. 25:39which caught him taking it for granted
  665. 25:41this afternoon, is the best summary of
  666. 25:42his night today. He boasted about an
  667. 25:44award that wasn't his. Mbappé, trash
  668. 25:47award. It’s that clear, and watch out
  669. 25:50for tomorrow, because this doesn't end
  670. 25:52here. The reactions from the Barça,
  671. 25:54Madrid, and France locker rooms will
  672. 25:56keep coming out, and we will tell you
  673. 25:58all of them here. Now I want to read
  674. 26:00your opinion. Kane deserved the Ballon
  675. 26:03d'Or; it should have been Lamine.
  676. 26:05Mbappé second ahead of world and
  677. 26:07European champions is a robbery. And do
  678. 26:10you think Madrid will return to the
  679. 26:11gala next year? To everyone watching us
  680. 26:14from Argentina. Leo, still at 39 years
  681. 26:17old. Tell me what you think. If this
  682. 26:20video was worth it, hit like and press
  683. 26:22the bell icon so it reaches all the
  684. 26:24Culés who are just as fired up as we
  685. 26:26are tonight. And if you aren't
  686. 26:29subscribed, subscribe. Tomorrow we'll
  687. 26:31continue with everything that comes out
  688. 26:33of this gala, as there will be much
  689. 26:35more. Thank you for staying until the
  690. 26:37end on a night like this. Kane champion
  691. 26:39, Lamine hungrier than ever, and
  692. 26:42Mbappé as an extra. We'll be back
  693. 26:44tomorrow. Yeah.
