    What did Andrei Shevchenko win this week? Who was the first winner, and who has had this honour the most often?

    Question #53152. Asked by wroot. (Dec 15 04 11:17 AM)

    		Andriy Shevchenko won the Golden Ball award as Europe's best soccer player on Monday and is the European Footballer of the Year. I'll answer your next two questions (sneaky putting 3 in one question) in a minute.

    Stanley Matthews won the first one. It's called "Le Ballon d'Or".

    And as far as I can see from this list (knowing my luck with your questions it's probably wrong) Johann Cruyff and Michel Platini have both won it three times.

    		three men have won it three times but no-one appears to have won it more than that.

    Marco van Basten is the third bloke to win it three times. Maybe you are only allowed to win it three times.
