Both rounds of Barcelona are supporting roles! If Inter Milan wins the Champions League, can Lautaro win the Golden Ball Award?

Who will win the final victory in the 2025 Golden Globe Awards?

Before the end of the Champions League 1/8 final, Salah, who led the Premier League scorer list and assists list, was a big favorite. With Liverpool being eliminated in the Champions League quarter-finals, they gave way to Mbappe, Rafinia and others.

After Real Madrid was eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, the Real Madrid stars led by Mbappe obviously had no chance. Yamal and Rafinia are still popular, and Dembele is pressing forward.

In the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Barcelona and Inter Milan lost until overtime, and Yamal and Rafinia were probably out of the way for the Golden Ball Award. If Paris Saint-Germain wins the Champions League, Dembele will be a foregone conclusion.

If Inter Milan wins the Champions League this season, is it possible for Lautaro, the number one star in the team, to win the Golden Ball? The

Golden Globe Awards value collective honors and personal performance. In the 2024-25 season, Lautaro, who has not performed well in his personal performance, wanted to win the Golden Globe Award with just one Champions League trophy.

So far this season, Lautaro has played 48 games for Inter Milan in various competitions, contributing 22 goals and 3 assists, surpassing his teammate Touram Xiao to become the team's number one shooter. Serie A scored 12 goals, ranking fifth in the scorer list, 12 goals less than the top Retgee, and there are 3 rounds left in the league, so there is obviously no hope of competing for the Golden Boot. In the Champions League, Lautaro has scored 9 goals, ranking fifth in the scorer list, 4 goals less than the top Lafinia, and there is still a final, so it is obviously unlikely to win the Champions League top scorer.

The Champions League semi-finals eliminated Barcelona in two rounds, and Lautaro's role was not obvious. In the first leg, Lautaro was substituted due to injury in the first half. He was a 3:3 draw, worth a thousand gold medals. The one who made great contributions was Dumfries, who contributed 2 goals and 1 assist. At home in the second leg, Lautaro scored the first record and created a penalty kick to expand the score, but was reversed by Barcelona in the second half. Archerby tied in stoppage time, and Flatesi won the final in overtime, and goalkeeper Sommer made many divine saves, Inter Milan finally eliminated Barcelona and advanced to the final.

If Inter Milan eventually wins the Champions League, depending on the players' personal performance, Salah, Dembele, Rafinia, Yamal, and even Lewandowski and Mbappe will have a chance. In the first New Club World Cup this summer, the players of the championship team also have the opportunity to compete for the Golden Globe Award.

In 2010, Inter Milan won the triple-champion under Mourinho's leadership, and the number one star Sneijder won the Golden Ball Award even though he won the competition. Barcelona was also eliminated by Inter Milan in the Champions League semi-finals.

For example, in 2013, Bayern's number one star Ribery was still the five-time champion, and he also lost to Ronaldo for the Golden Ball Award. Ronaldo, who was missing in Real Madrid's four major seasons, was the best scorer in the Champions League, and was eliminated by Dortmund in the Champions League semi-finals. But in terms of the player's personal performance in 2013, Ribery is still inferior to Ronaldo.

Therefore, even if Inter Milan can win the Champions League this season, Lautaro has almost no hope of winning the Golden Ball Award.
