The two superstars Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have “painted together” a beautiful picture of rivalry for two decades, with “competitions” recorded in the history books of contemporary football.
Both have scored a total of more than 1,500 goals to date, with outstanding achievements with Messi winning 8 Golden Balls and Ronaldo earning 5 Golden Balls.
It seems that as they get older, the rivalry between them will decrease, but clearly with what has been and is being performed, it is too difficult for people to determine exactly where it stops?
For example, in his latest match, CR7 scored a perfect hat trick of goals and recorded a series of huge records, but almost immediately, El Pulga “responded” with 5 assists in the match. a match.
In Jamie Carragher’s recent talk with Football365, the current football expert of Sky Sports, CBS Sports affirmed many things about these two icons, this extraordinary duo with high admiration.
“They definitely helped each other get better, but I bet they couldn’t stand each other, while they were playing football together or otherwise, it’s difficult to get results for this comparison”.
“Whatever one person does, the other responds, they can never truly rest. It’s too difficult for them to enjoy what they’ve been doing, how wonderful it feels. Obviously because both of them know that if they stop, the opponent will advance.
“I always have the feeling that the night before one person scores a hat trick, the next night, it will be the other person who does it, or something like that”.
Besides, Carragher believes that the football world will no longer produce such a pair of opposing cards.
“Normally, if someone wins the Golden Ball 2 or 3 times, they will definitely be worshiped like a god. As for the two of them, they are so different, and almost everyone understands that, without Ronaldo then Messi has won 12 Golden Balls”.
It can be seen that it is entirely possible for people to reach the level of Ronaldo and Messi, but maintaining the level of these two superstars for two decades seems impossible. And the comparisons will never end, no matter when.
