Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan prefers Cristiano Ronaldo for Ballon d'Or
Cristiano Ronaldo has won the Ballon d'Or twice

Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan believes Cristiano Ronaldo has done more to deserve the 2014 Ballon d’Or than Lionel Messi.

The Real Madrid ace is a clear favourite to land his third World Best Player award but is in contention with main rival Lionel Messi who has won it a record four-times.

Both players have maintained their good form in the Spanish top flight – breaking important records in La Liga.

Messi however had a better campaign at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil where he led Argentina to the finals of the tournament – only to lose to Germany while Ronaldo’s Portugal crashed out of the tournament just at the group stage.

But Black Stars striker Asamoah Gyan maintains that the ex Manchester United star deserves the award more than the Barcelona genius.

“Ronaldo, because I think he has done more,” Gyan said in response to a question of who he prefers to win the Ballon d’Or.
