Golden Ball: Dazn leads Dembélé

Published:

By: Manu Tournoux

Ousmane Dembélé, a favorite potential in the Golden Ball race, does not appear in the typical team of clubs according to Dazn.

This is an original initiative: the editorial staff of Dazn – the British platform which initially had the exclusive enjoyment of the broadcasting rights of the World Cup of clubs – has chosen to be ahead of FIFA to designate its typical team of the tournament. Not without surprises.

The final result of the competition has of course weighed in the scale since four Chelsea players appear in Dazn's dream eleven. Namely Cole Palmer, Pedro Neto, Enzo Fernandez and Marc Cucurella. This against three Parisians: Vitinha, Marquinhos and Achraf Hakimi.

No Gianluigi Donnarumma, no Désiré Doué and especially no Ousmane Dembélé, who lacked the first part of this World Cup it was true but was still precious to defeat Bayern Munich in the quarter and Real Madrid in half. The a priori sanction of a failed final.

All Bénef for Yamal?

Fatally, such a verdict is not to arrange and flatter the former Blaugrana in his project to conquer the Ballon d'Or, the Supreme Individual Award for which he is one of the big favorites this year. Did the Club World Cup-and in particular its last act-has irreparably sealed the interested party? The question of installation now for some.

“” He shouldn't comeestimates Raymond Domenech on the L'Equipe channel. But not having done something more does not help him. The final will stay. They took three, we didn't see it. His absence in this final can be detrimental. The competition is important, it will weigh. “And the former coach to add:” You don't judge a match. But the image you keep at the last moment … the weight … the other (Lamine Yamal, editor's note), He is not there, he stays in the dream. All the people who will vote for Yamal, it's dream, it's Barça. They will vote for that.
