It was a blow to miss Laut' on top spots

REAL MADRID and Vinicius Jr were not the only ones shocked by the Ballon d'Or vote last year.

Inter Milan captain Lautaro Martinez (pictured), who won Serie A and was top scorer as Argentina claimed the Copa America, was not even in the top six.

The closest he came to an award was handing the Yashin Trophy for the best keeper to Aston Villa's Emi Martinez.

With pace and power and an eye for goal, he is the Italian side's best hope of beating PSG in Munich tonight.

Alongside Ousmane Dembele and Gigi Donnarumma, he is one of three players in tonight's game in the final six for this year's Ballon d'Or, and he is still the most under-rated world-class player on the planet.
