    • 2009. December 1, 2009: the Black Eyed Peas had just been knocked off top spot in the UK Single Chart by a bunch of X Factor finalists; Barack Obama was less than a year into his first term as President; and Lionel Messi was collecting his first Ballon d'Or.
    • 2010. In 2010, Messi became the first player since Marco van Basten in 1989 to retain the Ballon d'Or – and he did it after an even more prolific goalscoring season for Barcelona.
    • 2011. The following year, it was time to equal another record, as Messi joined French great Michel Platini as the only other player to scoop the Ballon d'Or three years running (and became one of just four – along with Platini, Van Basten and Johan Cruyff – to pick up the award three times overall).
    • 2012. Four Ballon d'Or wins in a row? Why not! In 2012, Messi made history by becoming the first four-time recipient of the gong – just eight years after making his professional debut.
