Question: Of the world-renowned sports personalities in the European football world, which one received the FIFA Golden Ball in 1994?
Context: The FIFA Ballon d'Or (] , "Golden Ball") was an annual association football award presented to the world's best men's player from 2010 to 2015.  Awarded jointly by FIFA and "France Football", the prize was a merger of the FIFA World Player of the Year award and the Ballon d'Or, the two most prestigious individual honours in world football.  The FIFA Ballon d'Or was awarded based on votes from international journalists and national team coaches and captains, who selected the players they deemed to have performed the best in the previous calendar year. The 2004 FIFA U-19 Women's World Championship was held from November 10 to November 27, 2004.  It was the second edition of the youth tournament for women put together by FIFA, before being renamed FIFA U-20 Women's World Championship for the 2006 edition.  The tournament was hosted by Thailand, in two stadia in Bangkok, one in Chiang Mai and another in Phuket.  Brazil's Marta was the adidas Golden Ball recipient, as tournament MVP, and Canada's Brittany Timko won the Golden Shoe with 7 goals in 4 games.

He is now a coach for U-15 Thể Công.  He and the Vietnam national team participated in 18th - 20th Southeast Asian Games.  He also participated the first Tiger Cup along with the Vietnam team and won the MVP award in 1998 Tiger Cup that was hosted in Vietnam.

The African Footballer of the Year award, presented to the best African footballer each year, has been conferred by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) since 1992.  An earlier "African Footballer of the Year" Golden Ball award was given out between 1970 and 1994 by "France Football" magazine.  The changes resulted in parallel Golden Ball awards given out to Abedi Pele and George Weah in 1993 and 1994 by the magazine although the CAF sponsored awards for those years were won respectively by Rashidi Yekini and Emmanuel Amuneke, as well as two awards given to Abedi Pelé in 1992. " France Football" discontinued the election from 1995 after the European Ballon d'Or – also awarded by the magazine – had been opened to all players in the European leagues. Romário de Souza Faria (born 29 January 1966), known simply as Romário (] ), is a Brazilian politician, who previously achieved worldwide fame as a professional footballer.

Football World, later renamed "Athletic World", was an American magazine devoted to the coverage of inter-collegiate sports.  Its masthead described it as "A Magazine With a Mission to Serve the College Man," a publication "devoted to Inter-collegiate Athletics and sports of Amateur standing only."  It was founded in 1921 by J. D. Fetzer.  The name of the magazine was later changed to "Athletic World" as the coverage extended to a broader range of sports, including women's swimming.  Unlike other sports magazines of the era, which focused on promoting a healthy lifestyle, "Football World/Athletic World" celebrated the entertainment value of sports with a special emphasis on the personalities of famous athletes.  The magazine was renamed "Outing" in December 1924, reflecting a change in its focus. The 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup was the sixteenth edition of the FIFA U-20 World Cup (formerly called FIFA World Youth Championship), hosted by Canada from 30 June to 22 July 2007.

The Ballon d'Or (] ; "Golden Ball"), is an annual association football award presented by "France Football".  It has been awarded since 1956, although between 2010 and 2015, an agreement was made with FIFA and the award was temporarily merged with the FIFA World Player of the Year, and known as the FIFA Ballon d'Or.  Conceived by sports writer Gabriel Hanot, the Ballon d'Or award honours the male player deemed to have performed the best over the previous year, based on voting by football journalists.  Originally, only European players were in contention for the Ballon d'Or: in 1995 the award was expanded to include all players at European clubs and in 2007 to all players from around the world.
