#FIFAFootballAwards: Luka Modric wins #TheBest FIFA award to end Ronaldo-Messi duopoly

Luka Modric has ended the Ronaldo-Messi duopoly after being named the Best FIFA Men’s Player, while Brazil legend Marta secured the women’s award for a record sixth time.

The Real Madrid midfield maestro beat Cristiano Ronaldo & Mo Salah to the award. He enjoyed a stellar 2017-18 campaign, helping Real Madrid win a third straight Champions League before captaining Croatia to a maiden World Cup final – a feat that saw him claim the Golden Ball in Russia.
