England captain and Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane has been crowned the 2026 Ballon d’Or winner, becoming the first Englishman to claim football’s most prestigious individual award since Michael Owen in 2001.

The 33-year-old received the golden ball at the London Palladium on Monday evening, capping an extraordinary 2025-26 campaign in which he scored an astonishing 73 goals across club and country. Kane also collected the Gerd Müller Trophy as the world’s top striker for the same prolific output.

Kane’s haul included 36 Bundesliga goals that powered Bayern to the league title, 14 in the Champions League, and 12 for England (including six at the World Cup, where the Three Lions finished third). He helped Bayern secure a domestic double with the DFB-Pokal as well.

The award makes Kane only the fifth English winner in Ballon d’Or history, following Sir Stanley Matthews, Sir Bobby Charlton, Kevin Keegan and Owen. He is also the first Bayern Munich player to win it in 45 years.

Match Review : Medeama 1-0 Aduana

Nana Kofi Babil’s 82nd-minute winner proved decisive in the Medeama SC-Aduana Stars clash.

Medeama, seeking a response after their first defeat of the season (a 2-1 loss to FC Samartex), pressed throughout. Babil finally broke the deadlock to secure all three points.

Both teams lined up their best arsenals, but the hosts dominated possession (56%) and created far more chances, 15 shots to 4, with 6 on target versus 1, while Aduana.

The first half ended goalless.

The second half was a bit different to the first one, with the home team probing more for goal-scoring opportunities.

With eight minutes to end proceedings, Nana Babil reacted quickest to nod in the home team’s first goal, which proved to be the match winner.

Medeama will travel to Kotoko, and Aduana will be at home to Berekum Chelsea.
