To say that these two names have already been well etched in the sands of time is an understatement. Ronaldo and Messi have remained top-notched for the past one and half decade. They have both had a fair share of good fortunes. No doubts the two players are very talented and endowed.

Now when we come to international records, both players have done their best, but the argument remains, who has done better internationally?

Going by the goals scored for national team, we might just give it to Ronaldo. Yes he has a whopping 99 international career goals attached to his name, while Messi has about 30 goals deficit playing for Argentina. But the same cannot be said of world trophies won while playing for their national teams.

As for Ronaldo, he hasn't won any worldwide trophy with his national team but Messi has two already. Many Nigerians seem not to be aware of these worldwide trophies Messi won, probably because he won it before many Nigerian today began to know him. As far back as 2005 and 2007, Messi won the Under-17 world cup and Olympic Gold Medal with his Argentine Nationality. These two trophies are countrywise worldwide cups participated by every qualified country of the world. This puts Messi ahead of Ronaldo when it comes to worldwide cups. Ronaldo has no worldwide trophy recorded for him under his Portuguese nationality.

Some anti-Messi might still have something to argue about these, but no room should be left for doubt as regards which of these heroes has a better worldwide achievement under their national team jerseys. Going by the senior world cup record, both men have failed to win it, but one of the two men has earned himself a medal, which was the RUNNER UP medal in the World Cup 2014. Yes, the man who has it was Messi and not Ronaldo.

So conclusively, one would be right to say that Messi has achieved better than Ronaldo with countryside as far as worldwide trophies are concerned, having had three medals to himself while Ronaldo has none, but in terms of goals scored for country, Ronaldo has a consolation prize in that.

Op.....i am a die hard messi fan,but what about the uefa nations league and the 2016 european cup,are they not international glorys too?.


Abi wetin this op dey smoke sef?

These two cups are European trophies, not world trophies. Only European teams play these two games won by Ronaldo, but what Messi won are played by all countries of the world, including Nigeria and Portugal. Now do you understand what I mean?

The Op is a Messi fan and is in Sifia pain since yesterday when Ronaldo score his 99 goals for Portugal.

Under-17 world cup and Olympic Gold Medal are actually not major trophy because a player can still represent another country and Olympic is not a Fifa competition.

Let Messi win a trophy for his country at Senior level then will know who is the real Goat.

Ronaldo is the greatest player in Europe and the greatest Portugal player but Messi is not even regarded as the greatest player in his country as many people still regard Maradona and Alfredo Di Stefano over him.

What about the trophy Messi won for Argentina last week? And until Ronaldo can reach world cup final or win a world trophy for his country, Messi remains the GOAT. Six world best for the midget
How many has Ronaldo?
