Ballon d’Or ”winners” published by mistake hours before men”s award

LONDON: (Oct 27) (AP) Call it an own goal.

Organizers of the Ballon d’Or event mistakenly published multiple “winners” of the men’s award on its website Monday hours before the ceremony.

One announcement read, in part, “Harry Kane wins 2026 Ballon d’Or” — and similar articles described Lamine Yamal and Kylian Mbappé also winning.
