【Now Sports】球王美斯認為,本季在皇家馬德里狀態火熱的射手賓斯馬,值得獲金球獎殊榮。「那是毋庸置疑,很明顯賓斯馬(Karim Benzema)有過無與倫比的一季,最終贏得歐聯。」美斯(Lionel Messi)接受阿根廷頻道TyC Sports訪問時說:「打從16強賽起,他每場比賽都甚關鍵,我認為賓斯馬毫無疑問值得贏取金球獎。」

贏過7次金球獎的美斯,當然對賓斯馬的表現記憶猶新,因為其效力的巴黎聖日耳門正是於16強賽被皇馬踢出局,賓斯馬在過程中大演帽子戲法。至於賓斯馬在決賽贏利物浦後,也毫不掩飾染指金球獎的心志。

贏過7次金球獎的美斯,將代表阿根廷在溫布萊出戰意大利,那是去年美洲國家盃對歐洲國家盃冠軍的終極王者戰。他坦言對意軍未能晉身世界盃決賽周感到意外:「若然意大利晉身決賽周,會是其一爭標熱門,他們欠運,沒有人想與之為敵。」
