2010 WOLRD CUP GOLDEN BALL AWARD:
Although Uruguay wasn’t able to get the third place medal in the 2010 World Cup title, there’s a reason for Atletico de Madrid striker Diego Forlan to celebrate. Forlan won the 2010 Golden Ball award and the media thinks that his World Cup performance is better than Spain top goalscorer David Villa and Netherlands top goalscorer Wesley Sneijder.
