Well, it certainly was not a surprise, was it?
Surprise? No.
The wrong decision? Yes.
The world cup needs to have a separate award because Haaland could not do more to deserve the award except be born from a more prominent footballing nation.
I think he also needs to have a significantly better season than his competition. Not marginally.
Messi had comparable XGI. And just like Haanland, he also won the league.
It's the rest of the trophies that made the difference.
