Analysis of The Work of Ballon d'or



The season begins with race to clinch
The pitch praise  for play of greats
The Ballon d' Or brace for display of stardom
The clubs scramble for talents of goal

The work of Ballon d'Or begins:

Salah bangs the moon with goals of praise.
Messi raise the dust with grace to rule.
Lewandowski shines with frustration to win.
Fans worship with ecstasy celebrating the Ballon d'Or.
