So many people have tried to compare Ronaldo and Messi. Recently, the Atletico Madrid manager, Diego Simeone did same in this words:
“What I consider is that in a team with fewer solutions, Ronaldo is a better fit because he provides many solutions.
“For a team which focuses on football, Messi is much better. We are talking about very fine margins of how a team plays.
“Cristiano can decide a game in a different way, he doesn’t need ten attacks. He scored two headers against us and we were out.
“Both [Ronaldo and Messi] need a team but the differences are very small. Lionel, in an attacking team always plays better.
“The other [Ronaldo] can win a game in two actions, he simplifies the situations. Messi is mesmerising because he plays elaborate football.
“Leo plays in a team that compliments all of his talent. He always ends up finding solutions.”
