PSG ace Neymar has joked about Real Madrid attacker Vini Jr's ranking in the Ballon d'Or count.

Neymar took it upon himself to remind Vini Jr with a tweet regarding his compatriot's classification in the Ballon d'Or.

"Benzema deserved it, crack!!!! Now, that Vini is the eighth is not possible.... At least in the top three," wrote the PSG Brazilian striker, who did not even make France Football's list of 30 nominees.

Questioned at a press conference about Vinicius' position in the final Ballon d'Or ranking, Real coach Carlo Ancelotti had motivating words for his player, whom he encouraged to improve that position next year: "I think it is fair, because this allows him to try to improve on what he did last year, in which it was almost all new for everyone to see him with that continuity and quality. It will motivate him to do better."
