Andres Iniesta beats Cristiano Ronaldo to Golden Foot award

Andres Iniesta has won an award from Monaco's Prince Albert II, called the Golden Foot. This hails him as the best player in the world, for players aged 28 years and over. 

He shared a picture earlier today with his wife and other representatives of Barcelona which showed him on the way to the award ceremony.

Iniesta, 30, was the only Barcelona player to appear in the top 10, although ex Blaugrana stars Yaya Toure and Thierry Henry were also up there.

Franck Ribery, Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Manuel Neuer, Andrea Pirlo, Thiago Silva and female footballer Marta Vieira Da Silva filled out the rest of the top 10. 

The winner is voted for on the website of the award, so it is football fans who have recognised Iniesta's achievements.
