I nearly bought this myself.
Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) did not count the votes of captains and coaches of national teams right, APA reports quoting to Spain press.
FIFA have admitted that they miscounted the votes for this year’s World Player title and took the prize away from Italy’s Fabio Cannavaro and gave it to France’s Zinedine Zidane.
It should be noted that, according to the results of survey announced on December 19, Fabio Cannavaro won World Player title getting 498 votes. Zidan was the second with 454 votes, Ronaldinio the third with 380 votes. Zidane will receive his award on December 30 at a mini-ceremony in Monaco. Cannavaro will now have to settle for the second place.It should be noted that Spain newspaper Marca declared that this information is a joke.
