For the second straight year Carli Lloyd has been named FIFA Women's Player of the Year. Cristiano Ronaldo was the men's winner. The awards were handed out in Zurich tonight. There is extensive coverage on the U.S. Soccer website.
Lloyd joins a rather elite group of just three other women who have won the award more than once: Mia Hamm of the U.S. (2001-2002); Birgit Prinz of Germany (2003, 2004 and 2005); and Marta of Brazil, 2006 - 2010.
Congratulations to Carli!
