  1. We Know ESPN is all about Messi…so it not surprising with all this nonsense analysis and stat…when someone is ahead just accept..all this bias media report is just disgusting

  2. Funny how when it's Messi if he played in Europe he would have done the greatest things But Pele playing in the best region at his time played against farmers.

  3. The truth is we will never know but the facts are that Ronaldo has scored many more goals than Messi against the top ranked 40 teams in the world in official matches , whereas Messi has more goals in friendlies ! Maybe European qualifiers provide more games and therefore goal scoring opportunities , but it’s harder to qualify for the finals , only the winner of a group qualifies ! Look at what happen to Italy beaten by lower ranked Macedonia ! Whereas in South America only 10 teams and 6 qualify ! So Argentina and Brazil are always almost guaranteed a spot at the WC ! We can also say that if Ronaldo had been Argentinian he would have already won a World Cup if you want to go with the « if » analogy !

  4. Why isn't Messi scoring more goals in Ligue 1 then? I mean La Liga teams are far better then Ligue 1 teams but he scored less in Ligue 1. Every player has good nights and bad nights. Just because he scored 5 in a game does not mean he'll do it every night.

  5. This is a fact: If Ronaldo had to play in South America, his career would have been ended with those Messi got that bled his foot during the last Copa. Also, if Ronaldo played in the horrible pitches, high altitude/low oxygen levels in south America, he would not have made it through any tournament much less score half the goals Messi has scored. Look at the beautiful pitches in all these rich countries of Europe he gets to enjoy. Imagine Messi in those conditions, you see what he's done at Barca already. nuff said.

    For anyone coming at me for this previous season, it would be hard for any all rounded player to play in a side that is being reshuffled every year till the point they lost creativity and you can see what happened the previous season when Poch got in. I hope they keep Poch, they just started getting chemistry they lacked all season towards the end of this season.

  6. Ronaldo has scored 2 goals against South American countries in 11 matches.
    Messi has scored 19 goals against European countries in 29 games.
    Assuming,
    If Ronaldo were playing in CONMEBOL he would have nearly 30+ goals in his 170+ international appearances.
    If Messi were playing in European then he would have scored 120+ goals in his 162 international appearances..

  7. If we get back to reality. U honestly think anyone from any other country wud support any of England Scotland etc u must b mad. We're only Muppets that seem t do that. I wunt like t think I wer relying on any of the pundits t have my back if I wer an English player

  8. Spain's golden age was teh greatest team in the history of teams. i would put them above 1998 brazil and 2006 france. those would be the 3 greatest teams ever.

  9. none he only scores in friendlies. Funny how this final has been played for the second time as soon as messi wins copa america, why wasnt it played 4 years ago or 8 years ago so and so
