History made in Paris! ✨
Barcelona and Spain superstar Aitana Bonmatí became the first-ever women’s player to win three consecutive Ballons d’Or on Monday night. 🏆🏆🏆
The 27-year-old overcame Mariona Caldentey and Alessia Russo for the honor, marking five straight years a Barça and Spain player has taken home the prize. 🇪🇸
Bonmatí, who once nearly quit football over inequality in the women’s game, used the global stage to spotlight how far the sport has come: “In football there is no gender.” 💛
Her future? Bonmatí said she’s focused on the present: “Barça is my home and my lifelong club, and I hope I can stay for a long time.” 💪
We love watching women win. 🔥
