And so the big question is yet here again -between Messi and Ronaldo
who is the king of world football. Well, before I take any stand on the matter, it's worth stating that everybody agrees that the two are the best footballers on the universe at this particular century. Be it the coaches, players or the fans, its
either Messi first Ronaldo second or Ronaldo first Messi second. Not yet has a conclusive agreement been reached, and neither do I think it will. However, be it Messi or Ronaldo fans, one thing to keep their differences at abay is to be happy that they were born at the reign of the two legends, yes legends. To bury this endless question out of football planet,lets now not talk about hypothesis and
let's give factual information without biasing.
To start with, dribbling is one of the assest in terms of skills that a
player aiming to score goals should possess. Fortunately to the pair, this
not a skill to worry about. We have all seen them dribbling, not once, neither twice but severally. However, anyone who has ever watched them play - for Portugal, manchester united or Real Madrid (Ronaldo) and for Argentina or Barcelona (Messi)-
should have noticed this : Messi dribbles more severally without
loosing the possession. Don't beleive? Well, lets see on the
forthcoming match.
In Barcelona, they only talk of
passing. Infact, they can make
double the number of passes in a
single match to those made by their
rivals, Real Madrid. This makes it a
more practical team work in
Barcelona, making Messi to be a
selfless player, thanks to the
system.
Its not once have we heard about
Ronaldo's selfishness, yes,
when at that critical anterior 1/3
part of the field. We have ozil or di
Maria not to always assist more
than
they score, but it's only if Ronaldo
would not have been selfish at some
point of the game. Look at the 2012
Euros semifinals -Spain vs Portugal -
Ronaldo wanted to take the last
penalty, which he thought would
have been the winning goal against
Spain just as to apper as if he really
saved Portugal from the menace.
Total selfishness, I would also
second his teammate Luiz Nani, on
that final penalty issue.
Not to forget about set pieces, no,
not at all. Both of them are
absolutely great when it comes to
freekicks. We may say that Ronaldo
is a bit better in this part than
Messi, and surely thats true. But
when it comes to penalties, you
guys
tell us who has lost the most
number of penalties. Even a young
kid who watched the semi final in
champions league for Real Madrid
vs
Bayern Munich would tell you.
Messi has worn three consecutive
ballon d'or awards, yeah, three.
Records are there to speak for him.
Undoubtedly, he holds more
football
records than Ronaldo whose first
and the only ballon d'or he worn,
was during his reign at old trafford.
All in all, whether Messi is better
than Ronaldo or not, I would tend
to speculate that the pair is
definitely awesome, which we hardly
will get a replica of them in
comming years. Ronaldo does what
he does best for Real Madrid while
Messi does what he does best for
Barcelona.
