The Globe Soccer Awards had Real Madrid and Cristiano Ronaldo as its main protagonists. The Portuguese player won the award for the best player in the world, surpassing Lionel Messi, Neymar, Sergio Ramos, Kylian Mbappé, among others, and received the award at a ceremony held in Dubai.

"I have plenty of room for awards. For me, this is a special moment, I feel very happy for this award. Thanks to my teammates, my coach, and Real Madrid. It was an incredible year where we won many titles. Thanks to those who voted for me, do the same next year," said Cristiano Ronaldo when receiving the award.

In addition, not only Cristiano Ronaldo was the great winner, but Zinedine Zidane also won the award for the best coach. "Thanks for this award. To my president and Real Madrid for giving me the opportunity. All the players are incredible, I congratulate all of them. This is for them, not for me. Thanks also to all the coaches. I have won many things but it is a very difficult job. Finally, and most importantly, I think of all the mothers in the world," said the French coach.

With this, Real Madrid closes a great year 2017, full of trophies that it will continue to accumulate in its huge showcases, and also for Cristiano Ronaldo, who swept all individual awards.
