Kane breaks 25-year English drought to claim top football award

Key points

• Harry Kane has won the Ballon d'Or, becoming the first Englishman to receive the prestigious prize in 25 years. The Bayern Munich striker scored 73 goals for club and country last season and led England to third place at the World Cup.
• Earlier, Alexia Putellas won her third women's Ballon d'Or. The Spain midfielder ended the three-year reign of teammate Aitana Bonmati.
• Bonmati was not on this year's shortlist after breaking her leg in December.
