WORLD and European champion Spain dominated the shortlist for the Player of the Year award announced yesterday with seven players among the 23 nominees.
Argentina's Lionel Messi will attempt to win the award for the third year in a row, having surprisingly beaten his Barcelona teammates Xavi and Andres Iniesta last year. The trio were among eight Barcelona players to make the shortlist for this year while Barca's archrival Real Madrid has five.
Daniel Alves and Neymar were the only Brazilians named while Argentine Sergio Aguero was also included. Uruguay strikers Luis Suaraz and Diego Forlan were also in the list of hopefuls.
