Lol! This is what happens when you use Wikipedia as a source of information. 😀 Make research on "Copa America Golden ball award". It's given to the best player in Copa America. Sanchez won the one of 2016. Messi was declared the winner of 2015 which he refused to accept. The news was everywhere then na. Well, let me refer you to the same Wikipedia. Go to Lionel Messi's Wiki profile and click on his honors.
