Rodri's Ballon d'Or victory marks a historic achievement for Spain, making him the third Spaniard to win since the award's inception in 1956.
Vinicius Junior was the outright favorite before the awards, but Rodri's stellar performances for Manchester City ultimately secured him the prestigious accolade.
With Rodri's win, Spain now ranks as the ninth-most successful nation in Ballon d'Or history, with four wins from three players.
Cristiano Ronaldo remains the standout figure for Portugal, having secured five Ballon d'Or wins, significantly contributing to the nation's total of seven.
