But maradona has declared messi his successor na. There is far so much similarities between them except that Maradona was extroverted and a drug addict
I like the way you put am. successor. which means person wey go replace am which hasn't quite at the country level.
that doesn't mean Messi won't go down in history as one of the greatest

Words at the end of the day, is meant to confuse. Messi had 10 chances including a penalty, and he failed to deliver. Cr7 had 4 and converted 3 against Spain.


Bear this in mind, Messi and cr7 had a shitty game in their respective games yet the results speaks of a different story. Cr7 played woefully. No chances created, no creative pass at the final half but he hot himself a set piece and a lucky goal. That's what it means to get the job done. No excuses. Messi, no the other hand though creative and stuff failed to impose his will when it matters most. Yes, the bus was parked. But what happened to his shooting boots? Do we blame adidas or the field of play.


Numbers don't lie.



Style of play differs but by the standard Messi had set for himself, he failed. At euros, do you think if a penalty was gifted to cr7 in the game against Iceland, he would bungle it? Yes, Cr7 missed against Austria but he still went on to lift the trophy at the euro 2016.


Sentiments aside, Messi has underperformed in the colours of Argentina. This is the 4th pk, he has missed donning the shirt of argentinean.

Don't bring up the excuse of reaching the finals of the world cup, squad wise, they slay any team coming to world cup including Germany. Yet they failed.



Ronaldo had a shitty game? Are you alright?

You are an ignorant jaki who lacks comprehension. What i mean is that he had a penalty and free kick against a top team... something that most probably wouldnt happen again. Thats when we shall see his magic. learn to be civilised and not act like an unexposed bush man

Were the penalty and freekick lucky? Were they not won by ronaldo himself?

Rubbish. Same Messi that won the golden boot at the last world cup right? Or the same Messi that has same number of goals with your Ronaldo in one less tournament appearance? Nd probably if you must know, Ronaldo fired blank against iceland at the euros. I bet you are too naive to know that also.

1 less tournament appearance?
Ronaldo has scored 6 goals in 4 world cup tournaments; Messi has scored 5 goals in 4 world cup tournaments.

During Portugal vs Spain, why didnt they mark Cr7 like that and this made me say that the Iceland players knew wat they were into yesterday. Becos they knew his capability that was why. The same thing happened to Moses of Nigeria in yesterday's match. So even if Messi missed penalty, it doesnt remove the fact that he is a Legend in his own way. Remember Cr7 knows how score goal bt Messi knows how to play and score too. Though im not any of them fan sha. Just saying my observations

So ronaldo does not know to play?

calm down.......you can't compare Spanish defense and the Iceland own(pls don't underestimate them)


ronaldo was just fortunate to get those goals,he is lucky I must say but that doesn't mean he is a better player than MESSI

Can you imagine what this one is saying? A Spanish defence made up of the two best clubs in the world. Ramos, pique, jordi alba and nacho, with de gea in goal, not surprised anyway, any body Ronaldo faces becomes poor. Can't forget, buffon and the famous juventus defence, psg attack force, neuer and Bayern complete team, Ronaldo rendered them all useless.

Your dwarf with all the world class squard around him still couldn't perform, missed all free kick chances and missed a vital penalty, same thing he did at the last world cup. He should be benched and watch Argentina win matches. He's just an over rated dribbler leveraging on the quality of players at barca.

You are obviously confused since your brain couldnt process what i typed. I said those chances dont always come and you are still typing rubbish. Messi failed yes but he was close and its not as if both players never miss. Why dont you go and watch the replay before saying ronaldo almost scored? Like i said we all know who will go far in this world cup. It aint ronaldo

Like I said, cry in your closet please, don't disturb us with it. Your dwarf with all the world class squad around him still couldn't perform, missed all free kick chances and missed a vital penalty, same thing he did at the last world cup.

Did you bother to watch the game How many chances was created by Portugal? Passes in the final half. Possession and stats? Spain outplayed Portugal. But cr7 delivered.

Guy, You should go back to school and study English comprehension. Please don't quote me out of context.

Did Portugal boss Spain in that game? Let me dumb it down for you. Ronaldo had 4 chances and made them count but was out off the game for long spells.

You are the one showing frustration here cos you have no facts to back you up. Maybe ronaldo has never missed a penalty, a free kick and a goal with a good team before. The thrashing we recieved from the "overrated" dribbler is still fresh in every man uniteds fan. Ronaldo failed us then. He did that to madrid a lot too. What did he do at the ucl final if i may ask? If you check their stats messi created a lot of chances for barcelona, has many assists and still managed to be among the top scorers unlike your self-centered ronaldo that heavily relies on his team's efforts

I dont just want to open his case in portugal cause aside 2016( where the team didnt need much of his help) what has he done for portugal? At least Messi took his country to the final and he still has a chance this year.

Lol. On what basis? Because Ronaldo doesnt miss or because he has never lost a final? The memory of what messi did to my team (man united) is still fresh in my mind. Where was ronaldo then?

You should stop arguing like a tout please
Because if he had 11 shots like Messi did then he would score a goal....btw, you talk too much

cheesycheesycheesy.

News flash: Iceland did the same thing against ronaldo in 2016. He fired 10 shots but none went into the net and they finished 1-1. Being an emotional player he even criticized them after the matchcheesy. Now you knowgrin

Smh. A player can have a great game and the team still play _shit, that's why we have De gea @ united.
Can you show stats to prove ronaldo had a bad game?

I see you're so ready to cry on. Don't worry, Argentina vs Iceland will be replayed. Meanwhile how did you feel when Ronaldo scored that last minute free kick? Ronaldo keeps tearing haters heart to pieces.

For your health sake, Stop hating on Ronaldo, you're too young to have heart attack, I just pray he doesn't make you commit suicide one day. My last advice. No more replies for you.

I will indulge you a bit. Aside the goods cr7 delivered, Portugal played shit.

I wrote quite a number of things yet what you saw was the shitty part about cr7. Did you read the part about cr7 being clinical in front of the goal?

Its mind blowing how the average Nigerian youth comprehends stuff. For a long spell in the game, cr7 wasn't fed with passes BUT out of the 4 chances he had he made a difference. Messi too had his chance in form of the penalty and blew it

Like I said earlier, you got me all wrong. Try and improve you command of the English language and simple comprehension of written and spoken English. Put things in the perspective not out of context to suit yourself. I know it's not your mother tongue but you owe it to yourself to improve.

If you can't grasp simple English, I wonder what you would grasp. I got to break it down for you, You suck at English

You are finally backing away from the argument cos you lack football historycheesy

If you are familiar with football you should know that no true man united fan hates ronaldo. That is a fact but when it comes to comparing him with messi i will keep giving reasons why the latter is better both on-pitch and off-pitch so much that you would think i hate the former. World cup continuesgrin

courna:

you don't know what you are saying Bro
did you know if he scored that penalty he could have as well gotten a brace or a hatrick
your guy choked when it mattered most... he's been like that for a while always bottling chances
he is only good with the ball at his feet preferably the left leg.... no off the movement, low weak foot accuracy, can't use his head, no leadership quality.... he's just wearing the arm
mascherano should be a better captain
dude just make a proper review of the Portuguese and the Argentine team and let's talk about greatness
and don't forget Portugal played star studded Spain in the first game
Spain outplayed Portugal imagine the pain of running around throughout the match alone ...the pressure on cr7 as the only top player in the team and he delivered
that's the man I'll love to be



Bro, you have a wonderful brain and eyes on your head. Keep it up
