Ballon d'Or 2023: Full standings for every award as Lionel Messi wins record eighth trophy

The 2023 Ballon d'Or was handed out on Monday night by publication France Football as Lionel Messi claimed an unprecedented eighth success in the award's history.

The Inter Miami star was among the hot favourites to claim the gong after leading Argentina to 2022 World Cup glory in Qatar, but he wasn't the only player eyeing success at the ceremony at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris.

While there was no competition from Messi's long-time rival Cristiano Ronaldo - the Portugal international was left off the shortlist for the first time since 2003 - Erling Haaland's ridiculous strike rate in front of goal with Manchester City meant the Norwegian had plenty of supporters in the voting.

The golden ball wasn't the only award being handed out either. As well as the equivalent prize in the women's game, the Kopa Trophy, Yashin Trophy, Socrates Award, Gerd Muller Trophy and Club of the Year were all handed to game-leading figures in the modern game.

Here are the award winners for each category and the full standings for each prize.

How does the Ballon d'Or voting format work?

The Ballon d'Or victor is decided by 100 journalists from FIFA's 100 top-ranked member nations. Each journalist makes their top five picks from the 30-man shortlist, with each ranking earning a different points value/number of votes.

• First: Six points
• Second: Four points
• Third: Three points
• Fourth: Two points
• Fifth: One point

As you'd expect, the player who picks up the most points in voting is named that year's Ballon d'Or victor.
