One day after Vinícius Júnior won The Best FIFA Men's Player Award, the Brazilian took home the Golden Ball Award for his performance in the FIFA Intercontinental Cup final.
Real Madrid cruised to a comfortable 3–0 victory over C.F. Pachuca in the FIFA Intercontinental Cup final. Vinícius Júnior was everywhere on the pitch against the Liga MX side and finished the night with a goal and an assist, earning himself the Golden Ball and Player of the Tournament Awards.
The winger created Kylian Mbappé's winner with a brilliant step over that sent goalkeeper Carlos Moreno to ground, leaving a gaping goal for the Frenchman to bury the game's first goal. Vinícius Júnior then clinched Los Blancos' title from the spot in the 84th minute. The 24-year-old was the only forward to play 90 minutes as well.
