Argentina's Lionel Messi has been named the best male footballer over the last 12 months, surpassing Kylian Mbappe and Karim Benzema.
Lionel Messi was named FIFA male player of the year on Monday in Paris, following Argentina's World Cup victory.

The 35-year-old forward scored two goals in Argentina's World Cup final victory over France on penalties after a 3-3 tie after extra time.

Messi was beaten to the award by his Paris Saint-Germain teammate and World Cup final rival Kylian Mbappe, with Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema the other contender.

It is Messi's second time winning the award, which was established by FIFA in 2016 after the world governing body of football split from Ballon d'Or organizers France Football.
