An intriguing and notable event occurred during the voting process for FIFA's The Best award. Among the captains of national teams worldwide, only five opted to place Brazilian forward Raphinha in the first position.
It has been revealed that the captains of the following countries' national teams gave the highest rating to Raphinha: Gibraltar, Seychelles, Tonga, Uganda, and Uzbekistan. Among these, the vote cast by the captain of Uzbekistan's national team was of particular significance to local fans.
The football community has noted that Raphinha has delivered a high level of performance both at the club level and in terms of individual accomplishments this season. However, the number of captains who deemed him worthy of the top spot in The Best voting remained limited.
At the same time, this situation demonstrates that there are still players capable of deeply recognizing Raphinha's influence on the international stage. Notably, the agreement among captains from five different countries across various continents highlights the subjectivity and diversity of views in football once again.
In short, while debates surrounding The Best award continue, these five national teams that awarded Raphinha the first position have left a distinct mark on football history.
