Midfielder Luka Modric, playing for Real Madrid, opened a new chapter in Ballon d'Or (Golden Ball) history as he became the first Croatian to claim the award on Monday.
本周一，效力于皇家马德里队的中场球员卢卡·莫德里奇成为首位获得金球奖的克罗地亚球员，开启了金球奖历史的新篇章。
It was the latest recognition for his achievement and contribution throughout the year, following the UEFA Men's Player of the Year Award and the Best FIFA Men's Player.
这是对莫德里奇今年取得的成绩和做出的贡献的最新认可，此前他已当选欧足联年度最佳男球员和国际足联（FIFA）最佳男球员。
Modric ended the past decade dominated by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi for the Ballon d'Or, as the two superstars claimed it five times apiece.
莫德里奇打破了克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多和里奥·梅西对金球奖长达10年的垄断，期间这两名超级球星各获5次金球奖。
The Croatian also had terminated Ronaldo and Messi's 10-year duopoly in the FIFA award in September.
另外，莫德里奇还在9月终结了梅西和C罗对FIFA最佳男球员的10年垄断。
Modric spearheaded Croatia into the World Cup final for the first time in history in Russia, winning the tournament's Golden Ball himself.
在俄罗斯世界杯上，莫德里奇带领克罗地亚队史上首次打入决赛，并夺得“世界杯金球奖”。
On the club side, the playmaker won the third straight UEFA Champions League title with Real Madrid.
在俱乐部方面，他随皇马实现了欧洲冠军联赛三连冠。
"As a kid we all have dreams. My dream was to play for a big club and win important trophies," the 33-year-old Modric said. "The Ballon d'Or was more than just a dream for me and it is really an honor and a privilege to hold this trophy."
现年33岁的莫德里奇表示：“每个人小时候都有梦想，我的梦想就是为豪门俱乐部效力并赢得重要奖项。金球奖更是我梦寐以求的奖项，赢得这座奖杯，我感到万分荣幸。”
