Barcelona and Spain enjoyed double delight at the Ballon d'Or 2025 awards, with Lamine Yamal and Vicky Lopez bagging the Kopa Trophies for being the best U-21 footballers in the world in men's and women's football respectively. Lamine Yamal had won the award last year as well.
Barcelona star Lamine Yamal won the Kopa Trophy at the Ballon d'Or 2025 awards ceremony while Barcelona Women's Vicky Lopez bagged the women's honour at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris on Tuesday, September 23. The Kopa Trophy, for the uninitiated, is presented to the best U-21 player in the world and the 18-year-old Lamine Yamal scripted history by becoming the first-ever player to win the award twice in a row, having done so last year as well. The Spaniard helped Barcelona win the domestic treble last year, scoring 18 goals in 21 assists. Vicky Lopez, who plays for the Barcelona Women's Team, has scripted history by winning the Women's Kopa Trophy for the first time. She helped Barcelona win the Liga F and Copa de la Reina trophies and guided Spain to the Women's Euro final.
